Here's How It Works
I fix engineering teams that are not shipping. One or two days a week, embedded with your team, I find what's actually broken, use AI to rework how the team works, and own the problem until it's fixed. When the roadmap or a launch is what's stuck, I take that too.
The Method
I measure first. Then I use AI to speed up the fixes at each stage. AI speeds up a healthy system. It also speeds up a broken one.
See
Measure first. Know where the team is and where AI can help.
Stabilize
Stop the fires. Use AI to speed up the fixes.
Scale
Grow the team without breaking it. AI workflows in review, test, and release.
Accelerate
Extend AI to the stable parts of the system.
The First 30 Days
It starts free, and you see real work before you commit past Day 30.
Step by step:
Before you sign: the free Lite assessment. A short questionnaire and a one-page readout, then a 30-minute call. The scores are self-reported: they show where to look, not proof.
Days 1 to 10: I sit with your team, join key meetings, interview key people, and pull the data. I measure where you are and pick the two problems that hold you back most.
Days 11 to 14: I ship a first fix your team and sponsor can see. We agree on a target for each problem and name an owner on your side for each.
Day 30: we compare the numbers with the baseline. You decide to continue or stop.
After Day 30:
I run both fixes at full depth and move the work to your own owners, step by step. At Day 60 we re-score and adjust.
By Day 90 each owner runs the work without me. You get a final report and a playbook, and the AI workflows stay in place.
What you commit to:
- Read access to all tools by Day 1.
- Interviews booked within Days 1 to 7.
- One executive sponsor who answers within 48 hours.
- One internal owner for each problem we fix.
- The agreed team time for the work.
Then You Decide
At Day 30, you have two options:
Continue
The engagement runs to Day 90 and ends with your own owners running the work. After Day 90 you can continue as a Second 90 days, or as an Operating partner at one day a week.
Stop
You pay for Month 1 only. That is the Day-30 exit, and it is the only guarantee I make.
Why This Works
No Wasted Time
I measure first, so we fix the real problems, not symptoms.
Low Risk
The first 30 days show you real work. You can stop after Day 30 and pay for Month 1 only.
Measured Results
We baseline your own numbers and measure the change from there. No fixed promises.
What It Costs
I don't bill hourly. We agree on scope and targets upfront, so you know the cost before we start.

- AI engineering programs, fixed-scope projects
- quoted on scope
Rates are in Canadian dollars unless a USD figure is given.
The only guarantee: the Day-30 exit. You can stop after Day 30 and pay for Month 1 only.
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 after Day 30.
