How it works

The Flagship Retainer

Embedded technical leadership on a monthly retainer. 3-month minimum · 15–25 hours per week. Hands-on with process, code review, hiring, and roadmap. One retainer client at a time.

Three Tiers

Foundation — light-touch retainer for early Series A or focused work Growth — scaling retainer for two pains in parallel Interim — full VP Eng substitute role until permanent hire

Our Signature Approach

One Retainer Client at a Time

Most fractionals juggle 4–6 clients. We take one. That gives each engagement enough oxygen to actually ship — not just produce written recommendations.

ObjectFirst — Web Platform Rebuild for an Enterprise Storage Vendor

An enterprise storage vendor whose web presence was a WordPress site stapled to ad-hoc PHP scripts. Marketing attribution nobody trusted, an appliance business that only sold CAPEX, and a Salesforce instance the web stack could only push into one direction through three drift-prone integrations. Over eighteen months we retired the legacy stack, built the web platform on Laravel + Nuxt 3 + Next.js, integrated Salesforce as the system of record, shipped a brand-new subscription product alongside the appliance business, and stood up a warehouse the marketing team queried every morning. The team grew from zero to thirteen.

Frequently Asked Questions

Each engagement gets enough oxygen to actually ship decisions to production. Fractionals who juggle 4–6 clients tend to leave written recommendations and move on.
Yes — because we install processes and code review with your senior engineers, train your interviewers, and document. We're not the bottleneck — we're a force multiplier. If you need a full-time leader at 40+ hours, that's the Interim tier.
Sometimes that's the closest label. We work hands-on across delivery, hiring, and architecture rather than producing strategy decks. The right offer name depends on your stage.
Yes — that's part of the Interim tier. We hand off when the permanent hire starts.
