Hands-On Portfolio CTO & CTPO
I'm a hands-on technology executive who modernizes legacy software businesses. I get into the code, sit with your customers to validate what's worth building, and get them to help fund the work. Small teams. Shipped product. No consultant theater.
Not advisory. I drop into established software businesses that have stopped moving and get them building again — personally, with small teams, fast.
I get into the codebase and modernize aging products with AI and small teams — shipping in weeks what stalled roadmaps couldn't deliver in years.
I drop into a software business that's lost momentum, find what's actually broken — cost, architecture, team, strategy — and get it shipping again. Including pre- and post-acquisition work for PE-backed portfolios.
I sit with your customers to validate what's worth building, then get them to help fund the modernization. De-risked transformation with buy-in built in — most CTOs won't go near the customer.
If you're a CEO whose software has stopped moving, or a PE operating partner who needs a portfolio company modernized before exit — that's exactly where I do my best work.
