Fractional CTO & SaaS Product Architect | Technical Strategy & AI

I help founders and growing businesses turn complex product ideas into well-structured, scalable software products. I’m a software engineer for 10 years and founder who’s built companies, not just code. Over a decade shipping products and multiple ventures of my own, two scaled to $1M and $5M. That changes how I work with you. I’m not a developer who closes tickets and waits for the next one. I’ve sat in the founder’s seat: I know the commercial pressure behind the build, what’s worth building and what to cut, and how to take something from a rough idea to a product people actually pay for. Most technical help gives you hands. I give you direction as well as work. Which stack, which structure, what to skip, and ownership of getting it live. What I do: - Architect and build web and software products, concept to production - Set technical direction so you don’t burn months building the wrong thing - Own delivery end to end not hand over code and vanish - Work AI-forward, which means I ship faster than traditional teams I work best with founders and businesses who want a technical partner thinking about outcomes, not billable hours.
