Head of Product / COO
Accountable for roadmap outcomes and predictable releases. Goals: roadmap-to-engineering alignment, reliable estimates, and measurable value. Engagement: we run quarterly planning and capacity modeling, define Definition of Done, QA and release cadence, and track OKRs/DORA/product metrics. Result: fewer slipped dates, clearer trade-offs, and consistent impact. Best fit: Growth.
CIO / IT Director
Leads modernization, cloud, security, and cost control. Goals: target architecture, compliant operations, and FinOps discipline—without disruption. Engagement: reference architectures, cloud migration plans, IAM/security baselines, audit readiness, and cost optimization with dashboards.

CTO as a Service – Frequently Asked Questions
A fractional CTO provides executive-level tech leadership on a part-time basis—owning strategy, architecture, and delivery governance without a full-time hire. Consider it when you need senior decision-making, vendor/stack guidance, and execution oversight but don’t yet require (or can’t justify) a permanent CTO.
Fractional CTO: Ongoing, part-time, outcome-accountable; shapes architecture, process, hiring, and governance.
Interim CTO: Full-time, time-boxed executive filling a gap or stabilizing operations.
Advisor: Guidance only; typically not accountable for delivery.
Days 0–30: Assess & align. Org/architecture audit, risk map, delivery baseline, and a crisp tech strategy tied to business goals.
Days 31–60: Quick wins & roadmapping. Lock target architecture, start CI/CD/DevOps improvements, vendor/stack decisions, hiring loop design.
Days 61–90: Execute & institutionalize. Stand up governance, dashboards/KPIs, release cadence, and the hiring/mentoring rhythm. This 30–60–90 structure is a recognized leadership pattern adapted for CTO/VPE transitions.
Use DORA “Four Keys” (Deployment Frequency, Lead Time for Changes, Change Failure Rate, MTTR) to measure delivery performance; layer in roadmap predictability, defect escape rate, and cloud cost efficiency for a complete view.
Lock protections before access: strong MSA/NDA with explicit IP assignment/work-for-hire language; least-privilege IAM; start read-only where possible; audit trails and activity logging; and periodic security reviews. These are standard recommendations across outsourcing/IP governance guidance.
