Virtual CTO Services
Strategic technology leadership, scaled to your business. I step in as your outsourced Chief Technology Officer to set direction, guide architecture, and help your team and vendors execute on it.
What We Offer
-
I assess your current systems, understand where the business is headed, and build a technology roadmap that supports growth instead of getting in its way.
-
I evaluate your systems, tools, and vendors and help you make build-versus-buy calls with confidence — including identity and access platforms, where I have direct hands-on experience with BeyondTrust Password Safe and SailPoint IdentityNow.
-
I translate business goals into technical plans your staff and vendors can actually execute against, and help guide your team through periods of growth or change.
-
With a CISSP certification and 25+ years of combined IT and security experience, I build technology into your growth plan with security already baked in, rather than bolted on later.
Ways to Work Together
-
Periodic input on architecture, technology roadmap, and major vendor or build-vs-buy decisions, without a full-time commitment.
-
Ongoing technical leadership — regular hours each week, guiding your team and vendors through execution, not just strategy.
-
A focused engagement: a technology audit, a specific architecture decision, or getting a stalled project unstuck.
Common Questions
-
A full-time executive hire is a major salary and benefits commitment most growing organizations aren’t ready for. A vCTO gives you the same strategic leadership at a fraction of the cost, scaled to what you actually need.
-
Less than you’d expect. Most engagements run a few hours a week, focused on strategy and decision-making rather than day-to-day tasks. We’ll agree on a cadence up front so it fits your team’s bandwidth.
-
No. Engagements are month-to-month with no long-term lock-in. Many clients stay on for ongoing strategic guidance, but you’re never required to.
-
Absolutely. A vCTO complements your existing IT staff or managed service provider by setting strategy and direction, while they continue handling day-to-day operations. Think of it as adding executive-level leadership on top of the team you already have.
-
That’s a great starting point. A one-time technology audit, systems review, or vendor evaluation is a common way to work together before committing to an ongoing engagement. Everything is covered under an NDA, so your systems and data stay confidential.
