Fractional CTO in Port Moody

Senior technology leadership without the full-time price tag.

Fractional CTO services for Port Moody, British Columbia startups and growth-stage companies that need senior technology leadership without committing to a full-time hire yet. I work as part of your leadership team — 1-3 days a week — owning technology strategy, team development, vendor management, technical due diligence, and board-level technology reporting.

Why Fractional CTO matters in Port Moody

Port Moody's startup and growth-stage ecosystem in craft brewing and hospitality has the same gap most cities have: founders who can't afford or don't yet need a $300K+ full-time CTO, but desperately need senior technical judgment in the room when key decisions are being made. Fractional fits that gap precisely.

Port Moody's brewery district and waterfront have made it a destination market with strong dwell-time on local-discovery searches.

Frequently asked questions

When is the right time to bring in a fractional CTO?

Usually when the company is post-product-market-fit, scaling engineering hires, but pre-Series B. Earlier than that, founders should code and lead themselves; later than that, you usually need a full-time CTO.

Will you work directly with my engineers, or just with me?

Both. I work directly with engineering leadership on architecture, hiring, and process — and I'm in your founders' room weekly on strategy.

Can you help with technical due diligence on an acquisition?

Yes — technical DD is a major part of fractional CTO work. I've supported Port Moody founders on both sides of acquisitions, from preparing a clean technical narrative for buyers to assessing technical risk of targets.
