Role Description
We're looking for an experienced Fractional CTO to partner with our internal CTO and provide executive-level technical leadership across multiple client engagements. You'll work directly with founders, executives, and engineering teams to shape product strategy, architecture, and delivery.
What You’ll Do:
Lead client-facing technical strategy: join discovery, roadmap, and executive stakeholder calls
Support the Alpus Consulting CTO by owning portions of account leadership: communication, alignment, escalation management
Define and validate product direction: clarify goals, scope, constraints, success metrics, and risks
Shape solution architecture and delivery approach: recommend stack, build vs. buy, integrations, security, scalability, and cost trade-offs
Guide engineering teams in defining implementation plans, delivery milestones, and execution priorities.
Set delivery expectations: timelines, dependencies, risks, and blockers—communicate early and proactively
Drive clarity and decision-making: facilitate trade-off decisions with non-technical stakeholders and keep projects moving
Produce crisp documentation: meeting notes, action items, decision logs, and executive-ready status updates
Improve delivery operations: lightweight process improvements across discovery → build → launch (without bureaucracy)
Identify expansion opportunities: spot upsell/cross-sell needs (performance, analytics, AI, mobile, security) and support light pre-sales when appropriate
Build long-term stakeholder trust: become a credible, steady technical advisor for key accounts
What We’re Looking For:
Excellent spoken and written English with confidence leading executive conversations with U.S. clients.
5+ years in senior engineering roles and/or technical leadership (Tech Lead, Architect, Head of Engineering, VP Eng, CTO, Fractional CTO)
Strong understanding of modern software delivery: web, mobile, APIs, cloud infrastructure, data, and AI
Proven ability to translate between business and engineering and align diverse stakeholders
Comfortable with US time zones and communication style
Highly organized and reliable: you close loops, document decisions, and keep teams aligned
Able to work independently in a fully remote environment with minimal oversight
Nice-to-Have:
Prior experience with US-based clients and enterprise stakeholders
Background in pre-sales, consulting, customer success, or account leadership
Experience in FinTech, eCommerce, or AI-enabled products
Familiarity with security/compliance expectations (SOC 2, data privacy, regulated environments)
Time & Schedule:
Part-time: typically, 2-5 hours/week (may vary by client load)
Flexible schedule, with availability for calls in US time zones when needed
Fully remote—based anywhere
This is a senior, high-trust role: you’ll represent Alpus Consulting at an executive level for key accounts, and compensation reflects that. We never ask candidates to pay fees or purchase equipment as part of the hiring process.
