Fractional CTO and AI/ML consulting
Two ways to work together. Senior technical leadership when you do not need a year-round org chart, and AI/ML that has to survive production — not a slide.

The work
Lead the technical picture. Then make AI earn its place.
A grown-up in the room for founders and executive teams who have outgrown their current setup. I see the whole picture — cloud, architecture, security, AI, and how the team actually works — and lay out a practical path from “this might break” to “this can be trusted,” without grinding the roadmap to a halt. Typical shape: a blunt assessment, a phased plan, and hands-on time inside the system with your engineers, not a shadow org.
Fractional CTO
Whole-picture leadership
Architecture, cloud, security, delivery, and team workflows in one conversation — not siloed advice.
Stabilize and harden
Find what is fragile, reduce incidents, and make the security story match what you promise customers.
Phased, concrete plan
Small steps you can staff and schedule. Stabilize first, then harden, then add capability.
Protect velocity
Scope designed so the team keeps shipping while risk comes down. No freeze. No performance theater.
Most teams are under pressure to “have an AI strategy” before anything around AI or automation is coherent, safe, or embedded in how they work. I have used models, tools, and agents in real workflows for years. I help you find the few places AI measurably helps delivery — then implement them so they can be observed, tested, and owned by the people who already run the product. If the idea is a toy, I will say so.
AI / ML consulting
Coherent, not decorative
A strategy that maps to how your team already ships — not a separate innovation theater.
Safe by default
Data handling, access, evaluation, and failure modes treated as production concerns, not afterthoughts.
Embedded in the work
Automation that lives in the tools and processes your engineers and operators already use.
Owned by your team
No black-box dependency. If they cannot run it, test it, and change it, it does not ship.
