Fractional Engineering Leadership

Provide executive-level technical leadership and strategic guidance to accelerate your engineering organization's growth and effectiveness without full-time overhead.

Strategic Technical Leadership

Many growing organizations need senior technical leadership but aren't ready for a full-time CTO or VP of Engineering. Our fractional leadership services provide the strategic guidance, technical expertise, and organizational development you need to scale effectively.

With over 30 years of experience leading cross-functional teams, managing distributed offshore/nearshore developers, and architecting enterprise systems, I bring proven leadership expertise to growing organizations. As a former owner of two successful software companies and current enterprise engineering leader, I help organizations build strong technical foundations and accelerate their growth trajectory.
