Lead Your Team

Have engineers but gaps in leadership? I fill whatever’s missing — whether that’s people management, hiring, architecture, or all of the above.

What I Provide

  • Adapt to your existing structure — already have a tech lead handling architecture? I focus on people and process. Need both? I cover both
  • Hiring strategy and execution when you need it: job descriptions, sourcing, technical interviews
  • Delivery predictability: sprint metrics, velocity tracking, process improvements that actually stick
  • Cross-functional coordination with product and design — unblocking engineers instead of adding meetings
  • Engineering ladder and career paths so your best people have a reason to stay
  • Built for handoff — everything I establish (processes, docs, rituals) is designed for your eventual permanent hire to take over
