I’m a fractional CTO for founders without one. In 3 to 6 months I build the team, the delivery process and the AI layer, so the product moves faster and stops depending on a single person. Including me.

Build
Team, tracker, delivery rhythm
Implement
AI in the daily work, metrics that show health
Hand over
Your people own it; I step back
Early-stage marketplace, Europe
A three-person team, a non-technical founder who learned the project status last, and a first version that took a year instead of four months.
Alloka, call-tracking SaaS
A product on the market since 2010, paying customers, and a site that kept going down. Nobody owned the technology end to end — so the team brought me in.
Uplatform, Prague
No dev environment, no production, one infrastructure engineer — me. Five years later: two teams, a department, and a company that does not depend on any one of us.
“The broken telephone is gone — the one we had when I didn’t know what was happening with the project at all. Now I understand.”
Hours are a ceiling, not the thing you buy. You pay for the technical side no longer being your problem, and I report on results and decisions, not timesheets. For the right company part of the fee can be equity.
The whole technical side is off your plate: hiring, architecture, process, priorities.
Up to 15 hours a week, from 3 months
You have an idea and no developers. I own the architecture and the outcome; my engineers build it. You get a working product, not advice.
Fixed scope, 50% upfront
MVP architecture, process, first release, then a clean handover to the team you hire.
6–12 weeks, one-off
Strategy sessions, architecture review, an AI roadmap your team can execute. No operations.
Up to 5 hours a week
Fifteen-plus years in infrastructure, from Linux sysadmin to Head of Infrastructure, with budgets in the hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. I’ve built a department from one engineer to two teams, and watched it keep working after I left.
In the last year four founders got a finished result from the same model: I take the architecture and the client, a small delivery team and AI tooling do the building. A logistics platform, a marketplace MVP, an infrastructure migration, an online store.
I work in English and Russian. When a project pulls me in, I stay close afterwards as an advisor.
Thirty minutes, free, no pitch. Tell me where the product is stuck and I’ll tell you what I would do first — whether or not we work together.
