Fractional leadership for AI-native teams
Hire me to architect, lead, and ship product work that moves fast without breaking.
I partner with founders and product teams as a Fractional CTO, AI systems architect, and build lead. You get the strategic brain of a 250k+ hire, with flexible engagements that start as soon as next week.
Leadership
per month
$4,000
One weekly call, async feedback, and roadmap guidance for early teams.
- Weekly strategy + unblock session
- 24h async feedback on product questions
- Quarterly roadmap + KPI review
Most founders compare this to a $250k full-time CTO and still call it a bargain.
AI Systems
one week
$6,500
Deep dive into workflows, models, and data. Output is a blueprint you can hand to any team.
- In-depth interviews with ops & product
- Current stack + data readiness audit
- System blueprint with prioritized opportunities
Automation firms already pay this for far less. You get practical AI systems that survive production.
Delivery
per engagement
$5,000
Ground the build in real constraints with thorough planning and estimation.
- Requirements + product brief workshop
- Risk matrix + dependency mapping
- Milestone-based delivery plan
Engineering cost from DG42 is separate. My leadership keeps velocity high and scope clean.
Why teams treat this as a bargain
A senior product and engineering leader costs $250k+ before equity. Working with me means you unlock the same operating rigor, without the headcount drag. I plug into your exec syncs, unblock squads, and leave behind systems that keep shipping long after the engagement.
