Three ways I work.
All three are flavors of the same thing: senior engineering help, with the level of involvement that fits where you are.
Technical Co-Founder
a.k.a. CTO-as-a-ServiceFor founders going zero-to-one without a CTO. I help you make the architecture, hiring, and “what to build next” calls — and sometimes I build the first version myself.
Engagement: Ongoing, 1–2 days/week. Retainer-based; equity possible.
Individual Contribution
Hands-on engineeringWhen you need a senior engineer for a sprint, a feature, or a thorny problem. I show up, ship the work, and hand it back clean.
Engagement: Project-based or hourly. Usually 4–12 weeks.
Subcontracting
Through my networkWhen you need engineering work done affordably. I tap my network of vetted developers and coordinate the work — you get a single point of contact (me) and the right people for the job, at rates below an agency.
Engagement: Hourly or fixed-bid. I stay involved as the technical lead.
Not sure which fits? Tell me what you're building and I'll point you to the right mode (or to someone else, if that's the honest answer).
