Independent Technical Oversight
I'm not here to join your team. I'm here to watch it. External accountability with no internal politics. No vendor bias - I don't sell software or take kickbacks. My only incentive is the truth.
I translate technical decisions into business impact. Most technology problems are really P&L problems in disguise - hidden costs, compounding inefficiencies, decisions nobody traced back to dollars. I trace them.
I've walked into companies and found millions sunk into products that will never ship. Six-figure annual burn hiding in plain sight. 30% of software spend wasted on licenses nobody uses. The pattern is always the same: nobody connected the technical decisions to the balance sheet.
Plain English, Hard Truths
If I can't explain it clearly, I don't understand it well enough. Technical jargon is often a mask for unclear thinking - or worse, a wall to hide behind. I'll tell you what your team won't. Not to undermine them, but because you need to know. You can't fix what you can't see.
