Reduce your tech team. Let AI take on the work.

Developers, designers, QA and DevOps engineers: I replace their work with AI and my framework. I also automate admin and support, and lead your technology work as CTO.

At AppMaster, a team of 25 became a team of 2.

I bring that experience to your product: AI takes over development, design, QA and DevOps work. I implement my framework and train your team.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a fractional CTO?

A fractional CTO leads your technology work part-time. You get help with architecture, hiring and delivery. I work directly with your team and bring 25+ years of engineering experience.

How does a fractional CTO engagement work?

Engagements are flexible, from a few hours of advisory a week to hands-on technical leadership. It usually starts with an architecture and team review, then ongoing guidance on technology decisions, hiring, and cost. You get senior leadership exactly when you need it, and scale it up or down as your needs change.

When should I hire a fractional CTO instead of a full-time one?

A fractional CTO fits when you need senior technical judgment but can't yet justify a full-time executive salary: early-stage startups, companies between CTOs, or teams that want an experienced second opinion on architecture, AI adoption, or cloud costs.

What areas does Oleg focus on?

I specialise in automating employee workflows, AI engineering adoption and technical leadership. I use my own framework and experience taking AppMaster’s team from 25 people to 2.
