How will an external CTO work with my in-house teams?
However you need them to! You can tap a fractional CTO to jump in on a part-time basis to collaborate with your in-house teams or provide executive expertise for development, planning, and engineering management. Our CTO services are designed to be seamless and flexible, and scale to your needs.
