Senior technical leadership without the full-time hire.
Architecture reviews, tech strategy, vendor evaluation, and CTO-level guidance — on a fractional basis. You get the expertise without the $200K+ salary.
For non-technical founders, scaling startups, and teams that need a technical second opinion.
Dimitry Bizga
Founder & Lead Engineer
Technical decisions shouldn't be guesswork.
Most founders and non-technical teams face the same dilemma: you need senior technical guidance, but you can't justify a $200K+ CTO hire. So decisions get deferred, the wrong stack gets chosen, or an agency sells you something you don't need.
"Should we build or buy?"
You're evaluating build vs. SaaS vs. low-code and need someone who's made this call 50+ times.
"Is our architecture scalable?"
Your dev team built fast, but now you're hitting walls. You need an independent review.
"Are we overpaying our vendors?"
Agencies quoted $150K for an MVP. Is that right? You need a technical advocate, not another salesperson.
"How do we hire engineers?"
You need to build a team but don't know how to evaluate technical candidates or set up processes.
CTO-level expertise, applied.
This isn't abstract consulting. It's hands-on technical leadership tailored to where you are right now.

Your stage determines the engagement.
Different stages need different levels of technical leadership. Here's where advisory fits.
Pre-Funding Founders
You have an idea and need a technical plan before approaching investors. One-time audit gives you a credible technical brief.
Post-Funding Startups
You've raised capital and need to move fast, but smart. Monthly retainer keeps you on track without a full-time CTO hire.
Scaling Companies
Your product works but the architecture is struggling. You need someone to review, plan the next phase, and mentor your team.
Non-Technical CEOs
You manage a tech team but can't evaluate their work. An independent technical advisor protects your investment.
Simple, no-commitment start.
Every advisory engagement begins the same way.
