Frequently Asked Questions
Who do you typically work with?
Founders and engineering leaders at early-stage startups and growing teams — mobile-first companies (Android in particular), SaaS, and platforms with an established product. I work remotely with clients worldwide; engagements run async-first with scheduled syncs across timezones.
What services do you offer?
Four core offerings: Fractional CTO (Advisor or Builder retainer), Scalable MVP Sprint (4-week fixed-price build), Lovable Rescue (productized rebuild off Lovable), and Code Review (one-off audits). Each has a dedicated page under /services/ with scope, pricing, and intake forms.
How do engagements start?
Most engagements start with a free 15-minute discovery call to confirm fit. If we move forward, you book the relevant intake form and a paid scoping call follows — by the end of which you have a written plan, a price, and a start date.
Do you write code or only set strategy?
Both. I review PRs, write production code, and pair with your developers. Pure strategy without execution is rarely useful in early-stage companies. The Advisor plan leans strategic; the Builder plan leans delivery; one-off services like Code Review and Scalable MVP Sprint are delivery-first.
How are you different from an agency or a generalist consultant?
You get one senior engineer with 12+ years of experience and 150M+ users impacted at Telegram and Recall, supported by a Claude-driven agent stack — instead of account managers, hand-offs, or junior staff billed at senior rates. One accountable person, senior-level judgement on architecture and team decisions, and the leverage of an agent swarm.
How fast can you start?
Discovery calls are usually scheduled within a few business days of you reaching out. Once an engagement is agreed, retainer work starts the following week and fixed-price sprints (Scalable MVP, Lovable Rescue) start on the next available sprint slot. Active sprint capacity is listed on each service page.
