Fractional CTO

Many small and medium-sized businesses depend on bespoke software a lot more than they want to admit to themselves. Some would benefit from having some, but have nobody who could explain to them what is possible. What they all have in common is that they cannot justify, or afford, a full-time hire to cover these responsibilities. That is where we come in.

As your fractional CTO, our founder, Christian Lerrahn, steps in as senior technical leadership on a part-time basis. We help you align your technology strategy with your business goals, make informed architecture decisions, and build a strong engineering team. Whether you need guidance on hiring, risk assessment, or delivery management, you get the expertise without the overhead of a full-time CTO.

We will always be honest with you about the state of your technology and the risks involved. The goal is to help you make informed decisions that set your company up for long-term success. We give good advice without trying to convince you of things you do not want to do, and we make sure that advice is actionable with what you have.

We have many years of experience working with technical and non-technical stakeholders alike. We communicate without the jargon, so you understand both the challenges to respond to and the proposed solutions. Together we identify the most critical areas of your technology stack and make decisions that have a real impact on your business. Where those decisions reach beyond software, into a formal security assessment, marketing or hosting, we bring in our trusted partners rather than leave you to find them.
