IT & Infrastructure Leadership

Fractional CTO

A fractional CTO gives growing organizations senior technology leadership without the cost or commitment of a full-time executive hire. I step in to own IT strategy, infrastructure operations, and technology decision-making — the same accountability a full-time CTO would carry, sized to what your organization actually needs right now.

What this covers

IT strategy, roadmap, and budget ownership

Setting technology direction tied to business priorities, not just keeping the lights on.

Data center, cloud, and infrastructure operations oversight

Architecture decisions, vendor selection, and day-to-day reliability.

Business continuity & disaster recovery planning

Documented, tested plans instead of institutional knowledge that walks out the door.

Vendor, MSP, and internal team management

Holding technology partners and internal staff to clear accountability.

Capacity planning and system reliability

Uptime targets, monitoring, and redundancy built in before they’re needed.

Technology due diligence for M&A and vendor consolidation

Assessing what you're actually buying or replacing before you commit to it.

Who this is for

Organizations that have outgrown ad hoc IT management but aren't ready for — or don't need — a full-time CTO: companies navigating a critical infrastructure project, preparing for an audit or acquisition, or simply tired of technology decisions being made reactively.

Let's talk about it & infrastructure leadership

I take on a limited number of clients at a time so every engagement gets real attention. Reach out to discuss scope, cadence, and fit.
