Me, directly
You work with me hands-on: architecture, product, and the code itself. When the work outgrows my hours, I add an engineer I direct, at the same rate.
For startup founders
A fractional CTO who ships, not just advises.
Senior technical leadership before you can justify a full-time CTO — architecture, build-vs-buy calls, hiring — plus the hands to build it. I've been the technical cofounder three times; I'll treat your product like it's mine.
Sound familiar?
- A non-technical founding team with a product to get to market
- An MVP or agency-built codebase that has to survive real users and due diligence
- AI features on the roadmap and no one senior to own them
How we’d work together
Start small, prove value, then hand me the whole build.
01
Free consult
30 minutes on your problem. You leave with a concrete next step.
02
Audit & roadmap
$4k, 1 week: what to build, what to buy, what it costs.
03
Pilot project
One scoped build that proves value in weeks, not quarters.
04
Run your tech
Ongoing delivery: I own the internals — architecture, engineers, shipping — and report outcomes.
Me + an engineer
From day one, I own architecture, product, and management, and an engineer I direct handles implementation. One rate, more shipped per week.

Current engagement
The Letter Company — AI content & SEO platform
Integrations & platform surface owner
A multi-tenant Next.js content platform where I own the machine-facing surface: a 36-tool API generated from a single Zod manifest with capability-scoped auth, reachable over MCP, REST, and an internal CLI. Plus the unglamorous wins — row-level-security hardening flagged by a production advisor, a fail-safe publish path, and a migration-ordering CI gate.

Built the web application
A freelance marketplace with vetted, instant matches. I built the web app front to back — chat, invoicing, escrow, and Stripe payment flows — reaching ~1K monthly users and $40K revenue.
