01 / How I help
Bring in the expertise your team needs next.
You do not always need another full-time role. Sometimes you need a technical partner who can see the whole product, make decisions with your team, and get involved in the work.
01 Change how you build
Agentic development that reaches production.
Move beyond individual AI experiments. I help you introduce agents into real engineering workflows—with human ownership, review, testing and security built in.
A focused adoption planTied to your product, your team and a useful starting point.
A working pilotReal product work, with clear review and release criteria.
A way of working that lastsPractical workflows and knowledge your team can keep using.
02 Connect the whole product
Hands-on leadership. Hardware to cloud.
For products that span hardware, firmware, apps and backend systems. I work alongside your engineers on architecture, implementation and the connections between them.
A senior technical counterpart for founders and leadership teams. I connect business priorities with architecture, engineering decisions and the people delivering them.
A prioritised roadmap and explicit trade-offs
Technical decisions, team structure and hiring needs
Start with the outcome you need. We agree the scope and way of working together.
02 / A practical shift
A new way of building. A team that owns it.
Agentic development changes how work is specified, implemented, reviewed and maintained. I help your team make that change, with clear accountability and evidence before release.
01
Choose the right start
Identify a real product task and understand the current workflow.
02
Build with the team
Run a focused pilot with clear boundaries, access and ownership.
03
Check the result
Evaluate quality, review effort and delivery time against the starting point.
04
Make it repeatable
Turn what works into practices the team can maintain and improve.
Devices, control logic, data and customer experiences. I help teams connect the layers of energy products—from embedded behaviour to the apps and platforms people use.

Connected products
A device is one part of a larger product. Firmware, provisioning, apps, backend systems, security and updates all need to work together. I help make the decisions between them.

Product quality, data handling, traceability and technical ownership. I help develop medical technology alongside the relevant clinical, quality and regulatory specialists.

04 / How I work
Clear direction. Hands-on progress.
Useful decisions. Visible reasoning. Knowledge that stays with your team.
I’m a hands-on CTO and technology consultant, currently CTO at MyGrid. Through Artivia Digital, I work with founders and engineering leaders who need technical depth across hardware, software and the way their teams build products.
I move between strategy and implementation: shaping a direction, working through architecture and product choices, and getting into the details with your team. My focus is on decisions that hold up in real products—and knowledge that stays with the people building them.

Before we talk
A few useful answers.
Can we work together on a short project?+
Yes. We can define a focused piece of work around a product challenge, an agentic-development pilot or a technical decision. I’m also available for international projects lasting a few weeks.
Do you replace our existing engineering team?+
No. You work directly with me alongside your existing people. The aim is to add the expertise and leadership you need, while keeping knowledge and ownership with your team.
Can you help if we are not adopting agentic development?+
Yes. Product development and fractional CTO support are also available in their own right. We start with the work that matters to your business.
Do you work on hardware as well as software?+
Yes. My work spans hardware, firmware, apps, backend systems and security, with particular attention to how those parts fit together.
What happens after I get in touch?+
I review your message and reply directly. We can then discuss your product, the support you need and whether there is a useful fit before agreeing any work.
06 / Let’s build what’s next
What are you building next?
Tell me about your product, the challenge in front of your team, and where you could use experienced technical support. A few sentences are enough.
