Technology & Operating Executive
I own execution across technology, product, and go-to-market — one or two days a week, solo or embedded with your team. I find what's broken and fix it myself.
Book a TimeWhat You Get
Engineering Delivery
Shipping speed the business can plan around. Delivery process fixes. Hiring and retention. A team that owns its work.
Architecture & Infrastructure
Technical debt paid down in the right order. Systems that scale. Cloud costs cut. Security and compliance handled.
Product Execution
One roadmap tied to revenue. Trade-offs made and held. Product and engineering working from the same list.
Go-to-Market Execution
Launches that reach customers with sales ready. Commitments sales can make and engineering can keep. Build vs. buy decisions carried through.
Who This Is For
Growth-Stage Companies
You have product-market fit and 5-50 engineers. You're scaling but hitting execution bottlenecks. Your technical decisions now have serious business impact.
Founders Without Technical Co-Founders
You've built a team but lack senior technical leadership. You need someone who can bridge business goals and technical execution, speak both languages fluently.
Companies Between CTOs
Your CTO left or was promoted. You need someone to own execution while you search, or you're not ready for a full-time C-level hire yet.
Technical Transformation Projects
You're modernizing legacy systems, migrating to cloud, or rebuilding architecture. You need experienced leadership for 6-12 months, not forever.
How It Works
Month One: Diagnose
I sit with your team, interview key people, and review systems and processes. I start fixing the most urgent problem, and we agree on the three to five I own next.
You Decide
Keep me on the retainer to own the fixes (three to six months is typical), or take one defined project with a fixed scope and end date. Your call.
Hands-On Implementation
I work alongside your team with clear milestones and deliverables. Weekly check-ins keep everyone aligned. You see progress, not just reports.
Transparent Pricing
I don't bill hourly—we agree on scope and outcomes upfront. Retainers start at $8,000 CAD/month for one day a week of my capacity, or $14,000 CAD/month for two. Most run three to six months. Technical due diligence is scoped per engagement, from $30,000 CAD. AI engineering programs and fixed-scope projects are quoted on scope.
Rates are in Canadian dollars. USD quoted on request.
Compare it to the alternative, not to a salary. Hiring a full-time technology executive means a recruiting fee, an equity grant, a severance obligation, and a three-month ramp before anyone knows if it worked — a two-year bet made on a two-hour interview. I start in week one, and you can end it monthly.
