An experienced technical leader working part-time — setting architecture and hiring direction, reviewing decisions, representing engineering to investors — without a full-time executive hire.
Early products need senior technical judgement long before they can justify a full-time CTO salary, and the wrong foundational decision costs far more than the engagement.
We take this role where the value is in decisions and review rather than daily coding: architecture, vendor and stack choices, hiring the first engineers, and an honest read on delivery risk.
