Fit check
Three quick questions. If you answer “yes” to all three, a 30-minute fit call is the next step.
1) Is the team shipping, but decisions feel slow or fragile?
- Debates expand, ownership is fuzzy, or the founder keeps breaking ties.
- You want clearer principles and “who decides what,” not more meetings.
2) Do you need CTO-level direction more than extra hands coding?
- You want better trade-offs: architecture, standards, hiring, and technical narrative.
- You’re not looking for staff augmentation or a ticket-closer.
3) Are you willing to change how decisions are made?
- This work focuses on decision ownership, principles, and structure — not 24/7 availability or constant intervention.
- The goal is fewer rewrites and calmer velocity by fixing root causes.
If you answered “yes” to all three
Book a 30-minute fit call. We’ll map symptoms → root causes, and I’ll recommend the right tier (or tell you if it’s not me).
If you answered “no” to any: you may need more hands, a full-time CTO, or product direction first. If you’re unsure, reach out anyway—I’ll be direct.
