Fractional Chief AI Officer, CTO and board advisory

Advisory

Senior technology leadership for the decisions on your desk, without a full-time hire. I work with CEOs, boards and leadership teams on AI, on security and compliance, and on the cloud. I still do the hands-on work in each one, so the advice comes from practice.

Who this is for

  • CEOs and owners who need a senior technology voice in the room, without hiring a full-time executive.
  • Boards that want a plain-language view of AI, security and cloud risk.
  • Leadership teams in the middle of an AI, security or Azure decision.

What an engagement looks like

01

Fractional Chief AI Officer or CTO

vCAIO and vCTO

A standing, part-time seat on your leadership team. We set the direction for AI, decide what it may do on its own and what needs a person’s sign-off, and keep your security, compliance and cloud choices pointed the same way.

02

Board technology advisory

For boards

Plain-language briefings and a second opinion on AI, security and cloud decisions, so your board can ask the right questions and see the answers.

03

Other fractional or virtual executive roles

Shaped to your team

Other fractional or virtual executive engagements, scoped to what your team needs and for as long as it needs it.

Three results from three different rooms: an enterprise engineering team, a university classroom and a new AI product.

Where each number comes from is listed on my resume.

How it starts

  1. 1

    A 20-minute call

    Tell me what you are weighing. In 20 minutes we will both know whether I can help.

  2. 2

    A clear scope

    If it is a fit, we agree what you need, how much of my time it takes and how we will know it is working.

Looking for AI and cybersecurity services instead?

Just In Time AI, my company, offers AI consulting and managed services. That is a separate engagement from advisory: ask about either one on its own.
