Fractional CTO/COO | Lead Product Manager | SaaS & AI | M&A Expert
I help founders, investors, and executive teams make high-stakes product and technology decisions with confidence - and execute them without wasted time or capital. I typically step in as a Fractional CTO / COO or Lead Product Manager when: ✔ An MVP, SaaS, Marketplace, or AI product is scaling - but the team or execution is breaking down ✔ Strategy is clear, but delivery is slow, fragmented, or misaligned ✔ A company is preparing for fundraising, acquisition, or technology due diligence ✅Expert-vetted & pre-screened by the Upwork team for the top 1% of Product Management talent and Fractional CTO / Technology consultant working with enterprise clients, PE, VC Bringing 15+ years of expertise leading 500+ projects (from startups to Fortune 500s), specialising in product management, development and strategy, digital transformation, and business scaling, ensuring your team moves fast with clarity and precision.
