FAQ
Fractional CTO: common questions
How is a fractional CTO different from a consultant?
A consultant advises and leaves. A fractional CTO owns outcomes: they join your leadership meetings, manage the team and are accountable for delivery.
How much time do you commit?
Typically 1–3 days per week. We add more time around launches, fundraises and hiring pushes.
Can you help us hire a full-time CTO?
Yes. Many engagements end with us defining the role, running technical interviews and onboarding your permanent hire.
Do you write code too?
When it unblocks the team, yes. The main job is to make your whole team faster through better decisions, process and hiring.
