Delivering an inspiring mission through great technology

What drives me

Using my experience as a CTO to coach technical leadership and to empower investors.

I thrive on transforming software vision into a coherent and deliverable strategy. I have an innate ability for translating a rich, technical vision into straightforward language.

For Technical Leadership

Coaching and Mentoring

Having scaled technical teams from under five to over 30, I provide coaching and mentoring to CTOs and technical CEOs at the critical early stages of growth, and as they move from start-up to scale-up.

I advise and give insight on the challenges of strengthening a technical team and how to overcome them.

Adopting scalable software development processes that will work with your business
Building effective teams and promoting communication between them
Avoiding common scaling pitfalls, enabling rapid and efficient team growth.

Development Strategy

Transforming vision into actions
Technical debt mitigation and remediation.
The steps towards mature governance, accreditation and compliance.

If you have a great product and a vision for how this will transform the marketplace, I can assist in turning that into a concrete deliverable strategy. Working alongside your technical leadership I can provide constructive challenge that will finesse your vision into a multi-year strategy that is credible to the organisation, shareholders and investors.

For investors, boards and interested 3rd parties

Technical Due Diligence

Without a technical background, it can be hard to assess the shape, quality and extensibility of the technology that underlies the product.

Working with technical leadership I can rapidly build a picture that enables me to produce a straightforward, objective overview of the technical team and solution, its unique strengths and weaknesses. I provide key stakeholders with commentary and recommendations on high-level technical roadmaps.
