Services

Technical leadership for companies that need traction, clarity, and leverage.

Fractional CTO

Technical leadership without the full-time executive overhead

For founders and teams that need a senior operator to translate business goals into architecture, hiring plans, delivery discipline, and sharper product decisions.

  • Technology roadmap
  • Team coaching
  • Architecture review
  • Vendor and AI tool selection

AI Strategy

Use AI where it creates leverage, not theater

I help companies identify the workflows, data, and product surfaces where AI can reduce cost, improve speed, or create a defensible customer experience.

  • AI opportunity maps
  • Workflow automation
  • LLM product design
  • Governance and risk review

Complex Systems

Find the bottlenecks hiding inside platforms and teams

When growth stalls, the issue is often buried in performance, integrations, process, or unclear ownership. I diagnose the circuit and show the highest-ROI fixes.

  • Platform audits
  • Performance triage
  • Operational mapping
  • Revenue-impact recommendations

Use Case

PopMart-style platform diagnosis

A global brand can have massive demand and still lose value through a slow or poorly wired digital experience. The job is to translate technical performance into business impact, then prioritize fixes that protect conversion, customer trust, and future product experiences.

01Performance leak

Find where speed, architecture, or integration drag blocks revenue.

02Business model impact

Connect technical symptoms to conversion, CAC, AOV, LTV, and expansion.

03Actionable blueprint

Give leadership a clear fix sequence instead of an expensive generic rebuild.

Workshops

AI education that ends with working systems, not just slides.

Built for private teams, founders, and public city cohorts. Registration and event promotion can live directly on Zadro as the workshop calendar grows.

Corporate teams

AI Operator Workshop

A practical session for startup and mid-market teams that need to understand AI tools, providers, workflows, and implementation risks without drowning in hype.

Hands-on city events

Build With AI Sprint

A fast-paced workshop where participants move from database schema and product idea to UI, backend behavior, and a working prototype using modern AI builders.

Small-group coaching

Founder CTO Lab

A guided environment for non-technical founders to learn how to scope, validate, hire, and lead technical work with better mental models and less guesswork.

Method

The Navigator and Electrician approach.

01

Map the circuit

We identify the people, platforms, processes, data, and handoffs that turn strategy into customer value.

02

Find the voltage leaks

We isolate the bottlenecks: slow systems, weak workflows, misaligned teams, unrealistic roadmaps, AI risk, or vendor drag.

03

Rewire for flow

We fix the highest-leverage parts first, coach the team through the change, and leave behind systems they can actually own.

Trust

Built by an operator who can speak both founder and engineer.

17+ years across e-commerce, startups, real estate technology, cloud systems, and product delivery.

Hands-on full-stack background across C#, Go, Python, TypeScript, React, Next.js, Node.js, GraphQL, Dart, AWS, GCP, Azure, Firebase, Supabase, and Digital Ocean.

Experience translating between founders, engineering teams, vendors, and executive stakeholders so technology decisions stay tied to business outcomes.

Engagements

Start with the level of clarity your company needs now.

Circuit Audit

From $25k

A focused diagnostic for leaders who need clarity before funding another roadmap, vendor, rebuild, or AI initiative.

Fractional CTO Partnership

Monthly or project-based

Hands-on leadership for product, engineering, architecture, AI adoption, team rhythm, and founder decision-making.

Workshops

Public and private cohorts

Practical AI and product-building workshops for companies, founders, and city-based cohorts ready to learn by shipping.

Next step

Let's find the wiring that is slowing the system down.

Bring a messy roadmap, an AI idea, a team that needs direction, or a platform that is leaking revenue. We will turn it into a clear technical and business plan.
