Detroit ecosystem context

Detroit’s tech revival runs on automotive software, manufacturing-tech, and a growing FinTech presence anchored by Rocket Companies. The Windsor-Detroit corridor is one of the busiest commercial borders in North America. We work both sides of it.

Cross-border Canadian/US engagements are our wheelhouse. We handle the data-residency and contract framing that pure-US or pure-Canadian firms tend to mishandle, and we’re reachable in person from Windsor same-day.

Fractional CTO scope

Hiring a permanent CTO at the wrong stage burns 12–18 months and a chunk of equity. A fractional engagement gives you architecture decisions, hiring plans, and investor-ready technical strategy at the cadence the business actually needs.

  • Technical strategy, architecture, and build-vs-buy decisions
  • Engineering hiring plans, interview loops, and leveling
  • Investor-ready technical due diligence and data room prep
  • Vendor and tooling decisions (cloud, SaaS, observability)
  • Weekly founder syncs and engineering team coaching

For the full service detail, see the Fractional CTO page. For fixed-price productized engagements, see pricing.
