Beschreibung

As a Fractional CTO and Technical Advisor, I specialize in bridging the gap between investment strategy and technical execution for PE/VC-backed ventures. My focus is the critical "Zero-to-One" and "Turnaround" phases—transforming legacy systems into resilient, cloud-native platforms that increase exit valuation and reduce operational risk.

My background is not just advisory; it is deeply operational. I have founded two companies, led global engineering teams (0-150+), and architected award-winning IoT platforms. This duality allows me to conduct Technical Due Diligence (TDD) that goes beyond code scanning to identify commercial risks and EBITDA impact.

🚀 Core Value Proposition:

For Investors (PE/VC): I provide rapid "Red Flag" assessments (48-hr turnaround) and comprehensive TDD reports that secure your investment thesis.

For Founders: I serve as an Interim CTO to restructure R&D, implement "Developer Red Book" standards, and accelerate roadmap delivery by 25-40%.

🏆 Proven Impact:

Rapid Scaling (SellerX): Built a greenfield engineering hub in Lithuania from 0 to 40+ specialists in <4 months, reducing hiring time by 50% while establishing CI/CD and QA standards for a distributed team.

IoT Innovation (Dell Gold Award): Architected a Digital Twin platform managing >100k edge devices. "Smart City Living Lab" in Klaipėda, improving city response times by 15%.

PropTech Commercialization: Developed one of the industry's first web-based real estate platforms (REIS), scaling it to manage CHF 2.7 billion in assets and facilitating a successful exit.

M&A Integration: Led post-merger integration for B2B SaaS firms, harmonizing tech stacks and reducing cloud costs by 30% via cloud-native modernization(AWS/GCP).

🛠 Expertise:

Leadership: Interim CTO, Crisis Management.

M&A: Technical Due Diligence, Post-Merger Integration(PMI).

Tech: Cloud-Native Architecture (AWS/Azure), IoT, Microservices, Python/Go, Terraform.

Compliance: ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR.
