Looking for -- Interim/Freelance technical co-founder/early-stage CTO/CPO, Eng or Product leadership roles.
Bio -- I'm a hands-on (still code) product and engineering leader with sixteen+ years of experience solving problems with code, software, and design.
I previously led a team of 10 at a notable company to re-build its platform entirely. More recently, I helped get a B2B venture-backed startup off the ground as co-founder/head of product and eng. I built this product from scratch, hired a team of 5 and led development for 2 years, releasing nearly 500 iterations of the product.
I now work and consult with non-technical founders and early stage teams to own the first versions of their product (and often beyond). As someone who's trained as an engineer, I have a very strong sense for the product side of things. Through hard-earned experience, I've learned how to balance trade-offs between quality, speed, and resources to ship great software and lead/motivate a team while doing so.
React out if this interests you. I'm open to interim product/eng lead roles as well freelance consulting opportunities at early stage companies.
