You need to choose between SAP and Odoo. Your development team says they need Kubernetes but you are not sure why. A vendor is pitching you a $200K contract and nobody on your team can evaluate whether it is fair. You need a CTO, but you cannot justify $250K+ per year for one.
What a Fractional CTO Actually Does
Typical engagements:
- Evaluate your current tech stack and recommend what to keep, replace, or consolidate
- Review vendor proposals and contracts so you do not sign something you will regret
- Define the architecture for a new project before your dev team starts building
- Interview and evaluate technical candidates when you do not have the expertise in-house
- Create a 12-month technology roadmap aligned with your business goals and budget
- Be the person you call when a technical decision feels too big to make alone
How We Do It
Our fractional CTO service runs 5 to 20 hours per week depending on your needs. You get direct access to a senior engineer with 15+ years of experience. No outsourcing chains, no junior proxies. The same person is in your Slack, your meetings, and your vendor calls.
We have no vendor partnerships. When we recommend AWS over Azure, Odoo over SAP, or 'build it yourself' over buying, it is because it fits your case, not because we earn a commission.
