Tech Leadership That Rescues, Stabilizes, and Scales

Guiding early-stage companies through technical crisis with expert leadership, system rescue, and scalable architecture—without the overhead of a full-time CTO.

You’ve hired engineers or vendors,

invested in tech, maybe raised funding

but things aren’t working!

The system is fragile,

deadlines are slipping,

customers are unhappy, and

you don’t know what’s real anymore!

Don't worry, we can help!

We step in as your fractional CTO to stabilize, restructure, and lead. We don’t just advise — we lead engineers, fix bottlenecks, and deliver working systems. We’ve rescued projects in defense, energy, healthcare, and consumer devices — all under pressure, all with results.

What you get:

- A calm, senior technical leader who takes ownership

- A real roadmap with realistic milestones

- Clean, working architecture

- Engineers who know what to do

- Progress your investors can see

Why You Need a Fractional CTO

If you're a non‑technical founder in the midst of a technical crisis, you're not alone — and you're not destined to fail. Your product is complex. Hardware, software, and systems need to work together — yet things are brittle, over‑engineered, or simply broken. That missed milestone? The stalled pilot? That’s your turning point.

MEET THE FOUNDER & CEO

Hey, I'm Matt!

I’m an engineering leader with 20+ years across energy, defense, healthcare, finance, and smart devices. I specialize in rescuing underperforming systems, uniting software and hardware, and bringing mission-driven tech products back on schedule—on spec, under budget, and in the hands of users.

Energy + DERMS + IoT Controls

Built the first-of-its-kind eDERMS, universal controllers, and full-stack building control platforms.

Rescue experts align hardware and software, turning fragile setups into resilient production systems.

Defense + Embedded Systems

Led 300+ engineers on systems like the T129 helicopter avionics.

Invented automatic code generation, test gear, and calibration tools—saved teams countless hours and millions in costs.

Regulated Health Tech

Built a mobile-first search product that reduced call volume by 33%.

Architected service buses, messaging centers, and attachment storage—giving users 24/7 reliability.

Smart Devices & Consumer Tech

Led firmware calibration tools for Microsoft Surface ambient light sensors—100% test pass rates, better user experience.

Crisis Leadership

Faced with staffing gaps mid-project, I improvised turnkey test rigs—completed four full validation cycles in 48 hours.

That agility and composure keep schedules intact and stakeholders calm.
