Advisory & Fractional Leadership
Senior judgment on retainer. One or two days a week, embedded in your architecture decisions, roadmap reviews, and hiring calls. Alternative to a full-time senior hire when scope doesn't justify the headcount.
What this looks like
- Weekly embedded time inside your team — architecture decisions, design reviews, and roadmap work
- PR reviews and code walkthroughs with your engineers, with a focus on mentorship and pattern transfer
- Hiring support — rubric design, senior-level interviews, and take-home review
- Technical due diligence on vendor and partnership decisions
- Escalation channel for production incidents that need a senior second opinion
How we engage
This runs as a Fractional Retainer from CAD $8,000/month (one day per week) or as pre-booked Advisory Hours from CAD $250/hour when you need a senior second opinion without the ongoing commitment.
Ideal client
You're a founder, CTO, or engineering manager who needs senior input — on architecture, hiring, or technical strategy — but doesn't need (or can't justify) a full-time senior engineer on payroll. Or you have a senior team and want a trusted outside perspective on decisions that matter.
