CTO Advisory Services
16+ years building AI systems, blockchain platforms, and enterprise software. Every engagement starts with understanding your specific challenge — and ends with a solution that actually works.
Fractional CTO & Technical Leadership
Not every company needs a full-time CTO — but every company building technology needs senior technical leadership. As a fractional CTO, I embed into your organization to provide the strategic guidance and hands-on expertise that drives real results.
What you get
- Technology roadmap development and architecture decisions
- Engineering team building, hiring, and performance optimization
- Vendor evaluation and technology stack selection
- Board-level technology reporting and investor-ready technical documentation
- Code review processes and engineering culture development
Who this is for
Startups that have outgrown their technical co-founder's capacity. Growth-stage companies preparing for scale. Organizations undergoing digital transformation.
My approach
I've led engineering teams at 8 companies from MVP to enterprise scale. I know what a team needs at 5 people versus 50. I'll tell you what you actually need — not what's trendy.
AI & Machine Learning Implementation
I build AI applications that handle production-level traffic — not demos, not proofs of concept. From retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems to custom fine-tuned LLMs and autonomous AI agents, I design AI architectures that deliver measurable business value at scale.
What you get
- RAG system design and implementation (reducing costs by up to 70%)
- Custom LLM fine-tuning for your specific domain
- AI agent development with tool integration and memory management
- MLOps pipeline setup for continuous model improvement
- AI cost optimization and hallucination reduction strategies
Who this is for
Companies that want to implement AI beyond ChatGPT wrappers. Organizations with existing AI prototypes that need production hardening. Teams that need to reduce AI infrastructure costs.
Technologies
OpenAI API, LangChain, LlamaIndex, Hugging Face, TensorFlow, PyTorch, Pinecone, Weaviate, ChromaDB
Blockchain & Web3 Development
From smart contracts to full production platforms, I've designed and built blockchain systems that process millions in transactions with enterprise-grade security. Not every problem needs blockchain — but when it does, the architecture has to be bulletproof.
What you get
- Smart contract development and auditing (Solidity, Ethereum)
- Provably fair gaming system architecture
- Cryptocurrency integration and payment processing
- DeFi protocol design and implementation
- Web3 dApp development and deployment
Who this is for
iGaming companies needing provably fair verification. Fintech companies building on blockchain. Organizations exploring tokenization or decentralized systems.
Cybersecurity Assessment & Infrastructure Hardening
Security isn't a feature you bolt on after launch — it's the foundation you build from day one. I've hardened infrastructure against real-world cyber threats and built platforms that protect sensitive data for thousands of users across multiple jurisdictions.
What you get
- Server security auditing and hardening (Nginx, Apache)
- Infrastructure as code security (Terraform, Azure)
- SSL/TLS implementation and security header configuration
- DDoS protection and access control systems
- Compliance assessment and remediation (GDPR, UKGC, multi-jurisdiction)
Who this is for
Companies handling sensitive user data. iGaming operators needing multi-jurisdiction compliance. Organizations that have experienced security incidents or want to prevent them.
Startup Technical Advisory & Investment
I do technical due diligence and strategic advising for startups. I'm also actively investing in AI, blockchain, and cybersecurity companies. If you're building something in these spaces, I want to hear about it.
What you get
- Technical due diligence for investors and founders
- MVP development strategy and architecture planning
- Technology team scaling roadmap
- Investor-ready technical documentation
- Ongoing advisory support and mentorship
Who this is for
Pre-seed to Series A startups in AI, blockchain, or cybersecurity. Investors needing technical due diligence. Founders who need a technical co-pilot.
Technical SEO & Platform Performance
I bring a CTO's perspective to SEO — not just marketing optimization, but the engineering decisions that determine whether search engines can properly crawl, understand, and rank your content. This is where architecture meets visibility.
What you get
- International SEO architecture (hreflang implementation, multi-language strategy)
- Crawl budget optimization through server log analysis
- Core Web Vitals performance engineering
- Semantic HTML5 structure and structured data implementation
- Technical migration planning and execution
Who this is for
International platforms expanding to new markets. Large sites with crawl budget issues. Companies where technical debt is hurting search performance.

How I Work
Free Consultation
We start with a 30-minute call to understand your challenge, goals, and constraints. No sales pitch — just an honest assessment of whether I can help.
Scope & Proposal
I provide a clear proposal with defined deliverables, timeline, and pricing. No surprises. No scope creep.
Execution
I work hands-on — reviewing code, designing architecture, leading teams, or advising strategy. You get direct access to me, not a junior consultant.
Knowledge Transfer
Every engagement ends with documentation and knowledge transfer. My goal is to make your team stronger, not to create dependency.
