You don’t need to carry
every decision alone.
Perhaps the founder is still making too many technical decisions. The CTO needs another experienced perspective. Or the engineering team has grown faster than its leadership capacity.
I work alongside your team to clarify priorities, challenge assumptions and make decisions that hold up in delivery.
- Architecture and technical debt are constraining growth.
- A major platform, cloud or vendor decision is approaching.
- AI initiatives need structure and accountable ownership.
- Your consultancy needs additional principal-level capability.
Where I contribute
Strategy that stays connected
to the engineering reality.
Engineering leadership
Support senior engineers, clarify ownership and remove obstacles to delivery.
AI & platform modernization
Connect business priorities with practical AI adoption, cloud and platform decisions.
Risk & executive communication
Make tradeoffs explicit and communicate technical choices in terms leadership can act on.
How we work
Enough involvement
to make a difference.
Fractional, project-based or focused advisory support. An ongoing engagement typically involves one to two days a week, shaped around your priorities.
We agree the decisions, outcomes and working rhythm together. I work with the people already responsible for delivery, bringing senior support where it is most useful.
Based in Europe and working remotely with leadership teams in the U.S. and Europe. Engagements are structured on a B2B consulting basis. No U.S. visa sponsorship is required.
Focused intervention
Complex Technology
Programme Review.
An independent senior review of a stalled or high-risk initiative, with practical recommendations and next steps.
Useful when a migration is delayed, a platform rebuild has lost direction, an AI programme is struggling, or a vendor decision needs a fresh assessment.
We examine the situation, identify the constraints and establish a realistic sequence of decisions and actions. The objective is a credible way forward.
