About

I help founders and SMEs turn ideas into reliable, production-ready software — without the chaos of managing developers or rebuilding later.

I work as a Fractional CTO / Senior Software Engineer, owning the full lifecycle:
architecture, roadmap, development, deployment, and ongoing iteration.

This is a good fit if you:
• Need to ship an MVP quickly but correctly
• Are scaling a product without an in-house CTO yet
• Want a long-term technical partner, not just a task executor
• Have an existing system that needs stabilising or improving

What I typically do:
• Define architecture and technical roadmap
• Build MVPs and internal systems that can scale
• Lead development under a monthly retainer or fixed scope
• Integrate third-party services (payments, marketplaces, auth)
• Support product iteration while you hire or scale internally

Recent work includes:
• Acting as CTO for a B2B supply chain SaaS (retainer)
• Building internal tools and dashboards used daily by operations teams
• Shipping mobile-first web apps and React Native integrations
• Deploying and maintaining production systems on AWS

How I work:
• Outcome-focused
• Clear, honest communication with non-technical stakeholders
• Comfortable in early-stage, ambiguous environments
• Prefer long-term partnerships but open to well-defined MVP builds

If you’re looking for someone to take ownership and think like a founder — let’s talk.
