Fractional Architect

Senior technical leadership without the full-time overhead.

I work as a fractional architect or tech lead with founders, heads of engineering, and ICs to align strategy and implementation, and make deliberate technical decisions without adding another full-time executive role.

Grounded Architecture & Connected Engineering

Bridging strategy, architecture, and code. I move comfortably between business goals, system design, teams, and code. I can start from your roadmap and design grounded architectures your teams can actually build, or start from your current systems and development practices and work up to a clearer architecture and direction. The aim: software that can evolve without delivery grinding to a halt.

Delivery & Developer Experience

Ship software more efficiently and more effectively. I help teams turn big, risky releases into a steady flow of small changes. That can mean choosing practices where Extreme Programming fits better than Scrum, tightening feedback loops with executable specifications, or adjusting team structure and responsibilities so work can move without constant handoffs.

Secure Software Development

Security and compliance built into how you develop. Drawing on experience in high-compliance environments, I help you design secure-by-default architectures and development setups: sensible access patterns, automated checks, and guardrails in your pipelines so the easiest way to ship is also the safest.

Technical Leadership Advisory

A thinking partner for technical leadership decisions. I work alongside CTOs and engineering leads as a sparring partner: pressure-testing architectural choices, aligning technical direction with business strategy, and helping navigate team scaling challenges. Sometimes that's a second opinion before a big call; sometimes it's working through an architecture modernization effort or preparing for a tough conversation about tech debt priorities.
