Fractional CTO · technical due diligence
Senior technical judgement when the decisions cannot wait.
For founders and investors at the hardware, software and regulation frontier: a clear read on the technology, a roadmap that can be delivered, and accountable leadership through the work.
Selective engagements · UK and international · deep tech, mobility, autonomy, energy and engineering-led ventures
The right fit
When progress needs more than advice.
You do not need a generic SaaS CTO. You need someone who can identify the engineering risk, make trade-offs visible, and build a system that gives your team the best chance of delivery.
- Deep-tech founders turning an ambitious product into a costed, executable roadmap
- Investors who need an independent view of technology, team and delivery risk
- Engineering-led companies navigating a difficult transition, scale-up or reset
Ways to work together
Three practical engagement models.
Technical due diligence
A decision-ready assessment of the technology, team, build plan and material risks for an investment or acquisition.
Fractional CTO leadership
Embedded technical strategy, roadmap, hiring and delivery cadence for companies that need a CTO’s judgement, part-time.
Build from zero
Standing up the technical organisation, operating model and execution discipline when the clock is the constraint.
Built where delivery is unforgiving.
McLaren F1 engineer. Co-founder of Super Aguri F1, put on the grid in 100 days. Founder of StreetDrone, acquired by Oxa. Five Formula E World Championships. Today CTO at DeQuorum. The operating principle is simple: understand the problem precisely, set a plan that can be measured, and deliver against it.
