Hire Your Next CTO
I come ready to Solve your concerns, not endlessly Study them.
Where does a fresh perspective help?
- help a start-up with technology leadership (and instant credibility with potential investors)
- transition a SaaS firm into a rapid growth cycle
- replace a departing CTO, shore up technology efforts, and attract technical staff
- identify and resolve issues that negatively impact the transaction for an acquisition or sale
I began my career at IBM, and most recently was tapped as the CTO of a medical EHR firm to urgently cure chronic software, technology, and process problems in preparation for a successful exit.
Every engagement is executed with a proven discipline, trusted playbooks, and hands-on experience. I remove the roadblocks holding back your firm from growing, or reducing costs, or attracting technical talent, or delivering your product roadmap.
