Fractional Leadership, Engineered for Growth

Get the impact of a senior engineering leader — without the full-time overhead, embed with your team as a Fractional CTO or Fractional Head of Engineering, helping you architect scalable systems, integrate AI intelligently, and accelerate product delivery.


Why Fractional Product Engineering

Most teams hit a point where execution slows, not because of talent, but because systems and leadership haven’t scaled with the product.

That’s where I come in. I help SaaS and martech companies clarify architecture, prioritize automation, and align engineering with growth outcomes.

My approach combines:

  • Strategic product architecture
  • AI and automation integration
  • Data pipeline and system design
  • Cross-functional leadership and mentoring

You get a leader who can design, implement, and scale the foundation your business depends on.

Engagement Models

Fractional CTO

Strategic direction, system architecture, and AI roadmap. | Founders and executive teams needing technical leadership and alignment.

Fractional Head of Product Engineering

Delivery leadership, team velocity, automation, and architectural execution. | Teams scaling from MVP to product-market fit or multi-product growth.

Advisory / Technical Audit

Deep analysis of architecture, data systems, and engineering workflows. | Companies preparing for rebuilds, funding rounds, or AI adoption.

Where AI Fits Into Fractional Leadership

AI isn’t a department, it’s infrastructure.


I integrate AI where it compounds:

  • Automating data flow across analytics and marketing
  • Enhancing product features through intelligent systems
  • Creating internal developer tools for faster iteration
  • Reducing manual processes in engineering and ops


The result: teams that scale faster, learn faster, and ship smarter, without adding headcount.

Featured Projects

Audience Fire

When to Bring Me In

  • Your product architecture is limiting growth or feature velocity.
  • Your team is growing faster than your systems can support.
  • You’re exploring AI or automation but need a clear implementation path.
  • You need technical leadership to align product, marketing, and data.
  • You want senior oversight, without hiring full-time.

How Engagements Work

Discovery

We audit your current systems, product stack, and velocity bottlenecks.

Architecture Plan

A roadmap connecting product goals to technical systems and AI opportunities.

Execution & Mentorship

I embed with your team, leading implementation and process refinement.

Transition or Ongoing Leadership

We decide if continued fractional support or transition to internal leadership fits best.

Let’s Build the Foundation for Your Next Phase

Whether you need a part-time CTO, an embedded product engineering leader, or an advisor to help align AI with your roadmap — I can help you scale smarter.

“Fractional leadership isn’t about doing less — it’s about delivering clarity, velocity, and leverage where it matters most.”
