Fractional & Augmenting CTO Services for SaaS Startups (Pre & Post Series A)
Scale your product, stabilize your infra, and meet investor expectations — without overloading your current team.
Growth is exciting — but your tech is starting to creak.
At the Seed and Series A stage, you need to move fast — but most SaaS teams hit the same roadblocks:
Technical debt from MVP days slowing new features
Cloud costs eating into runway
Delivery deadlines slipping as engineering scales
Security & compliance (SOC2, HIPAA, GDPR) looming for investors and customers
A single technical leader (or none at all) carrying all the weight
These issues can kill momentum right when growth is most critical.
Fractional CTO Services for SaaS


Fractional or augmenting CTO leadership, designed for scaling SaaS.
I help SaaS teams:
Reduce cloud spend (typically 20–40% in 90 days)
Build scalable infra (AWS, Azure, GCP) that won’t collapse under growth
Put delivery processes in place to hit release targets
Drive security/compliance readiness for investor diligence
Coach and grow engineering leaders so you’re not forever dependent on contractors
Whether you have a CTO who needs a second pair of hands, or no CTO at all, I slot in to give you executive-level technical leadership exactly when you need it.
Built for speed, designed for growth.
Quick Wins: Cloud cost reductions, release acceleration, compliance readiness
Scaling Frameworks: Org design, hiring processes, product-engineering alignment
Investor Alignment: Tech roadmaps tied directly to ARR growth, churn reduction, and board reporting
I’ve helped SaaS companies stabilize infra, hit investor milestones, and scale teams without blowing through runway.


Example: HR-Tech SaaS Scaling Post-Series A
A Series A SaaS company with 45 employees was struggling with cloud spend and slipping release cycles.
In 90 days, I:
Cut AWS spend by 38% through architecture and tooling changes
Improved release cycle from 6 weeks → 2 weeks by introducing CI/CD pipelines
Put SOC2 compliance prep on track ahead of investor diligence
Result: More efficient use of runway, faster product velocity, and reduced risk for the next funding round.
