Where I can help

For founders and small companies that need senior technical direction, I connect business priorities with architecture, delivery capacity and an achievable technology roadmap. The role can include hands-on work when that is the best use of the engagement.

  • Assess architecture, delivery capability and technical risk.
  • Evaluate build-versus-buy choices and technology investments.
  • Define a technical roadmap aligned with product goals.
  • Support team structure, engineering standards and leadership transition.

What you get

  • A technology assessment and decision brief.
  • A sequenced technical roadmap with dependencies and tradeoffs.
  • Recommendations for team capability and technical ownership.
  • Regular decision support and a documented transition plan.

How we work

We agree on the problem, access, decision owners and acceptance criteria first. I review the current context, propose a focused scope and work with your team through the agreed deliverables. Progress, open risks and the next owner are documented throughout.
