Ways To Work Together - Flexible, Effective Technical Leadership For Early-Stage Startups.

Startups need different kinds of tech leadership at different stages. Some need to launch fast, others need help scaling, and some just need expert guidance on key decisions.

Below are the flexible ways we can work together—each tailored to your stage, goals, and challenges. If nothing fits exactly, we’ll shape an engagement that does.

  • 1. MVP Launch: Get to Market FastFor founders who need to go from idea to product—quickly and with confidence.
    • Architect and build an investor-ready MVP
    • Choose the right tech stack for speed and scale
    • Validate product-market fit through lean development
    • Set the stage for smooth post-MVP scaling

    Best for: Early-stage startups ready to build and launch fast.
    Pricing: Fixed price based on deliverables.

    Don't have a tech team yet?: I'll guide your early decisions and bring in trusted resources if needed.

  • 2. Fractional CTO: Scale Without a Full-Time HireFor startups that need strategic technical leadership but aren't ready to hire a full-time CTO.
    • Define and execute a strong technical vision
    • Build systems that grow with your business
    • Lead product development and engineering execution
    • Hire, mentor, and scale your technical team

    Best for: Startups needing hands-on leadership and strategic direction.
    Pricing: Retainer, based on business outcomes.

    Already have an engineering team?: I'll integrate with your team to align execution with strategy and accelerate progress.

  • 3. Fractional Engineering Manager: Optimize Your Team & ExecutionFor startups growing their team and needing strong execution, structure, and coaching.
    • Establish engineering best practices and clear processes
    • Improve delivery speed and collaboration
    • Mentor engineers and level up your team
    • Reduce technical debt without slowing development

    Best for: Startups scaling their engineering team.
    Pricing: Retainer, based on team growth and efficiency.

    Need a balance between strategy and execution?: I provide leadership and mentorship to keep your team focused and effective.

How I Work & PricingI offer flexible engagement models tailored to your startup’s stage, goals, and resources:
  • Part-time Leadership - Ongoing CTO-level support (1–2 days/week) for strategy, architecture, and team leadership.
  • Dedicated Blocks of Time - Focused time for critical initiatives like MVP delivery, scaling infrastructure, or unblocking teams.
  • Retainer-Based Advisory - Consistent guidance for technical decisions, team growth, and keeping engineering aligned with business goals.
  • Custom Engagements - Every startup is different. If you need a mix of strategy, execution, or mentorship—we’ll design an approach that fits.
Pricing That Scales With Your Startup’s NeedsI use value-based pricing—you’re paying for outcomes, not hours.
  • Fixed Pricing for MVP Launches - Pay for a successful MVP, not an open-ended dev cycle.
  • Retainer-Based Pricing for Fractional CTO/EM - Your investment is tied to impact: team growth, better execution, and faster delivery.
  • Custom Engagements - Need something different? We’ll shape a pricing model that fits your goals and stage.
