You already know the shape of the problem. You just haven't found the person to hand it to.
- Engineering ships slowlyOr it doesn't ship at all, and no one can say exactly why.
- The CTO is goneA departure, a leave, a role that was never filled — and no one ready to step in.
- The board is askingHard questions about AI strategy that nobody in the room can answer.
- The platform is fragileInfrastructure that can't carry the growth everyone else is promising.
- Modernization has stalledAn initiative with a kickoff deck and no forward motion since.
You don't need another consultant with a deck. You need someone who will own the problem.
A CTO, without the permanent hire
Filidh is a single senior practitioner, available on a fractional basis, who embeds with your leadership team and does the work a full-time CTO would do. Not a staffing firm. Not a body shop. Not a generalist advisory. One person, deep expertise, direct accountability.
Engagements typically run three to six months, with a defined scope and a named outcome — engineering leadership during a transition, a platform strategy that actually gets built, AI integrated into how the business runs, or a modernization effort that finally moves.
