Frequently Asked Questions
About the Service
I work with two groups: investors who need an independent read on the technology behind a deal, and founders who need strategic technical and go-to-market guidance preparing for their next stage.
I typically partner with:
- Venture capital firms
- Angel investors
- Family offices
- Startup founders
- Enterprise B2B SaaS founders
- Corporate innovation teams
- Enterprise buyers
- Accelerators and venture studios
Most technical advisors sit on one side of the table — diligence for investors, or architecture for founders.
I work both sides across the deal lifecycle, so I understand what each side is actually trying to learn from the other, and can translate between technical and business language fluently.
Engagements
A technical and commercial assessment, a product and GTM review, risk and opportunity analysis, and executive-level recommendations, delivered in 1–2 weeks.
A 4–6 week engagement covering product and technical strategy, enterprise GTM guidance, investor readiness, customer validation, and weekly working sessions.
Bi-weekly strategy sessions, a technical sounding board, enterprise GTM guidance, deal support, and priority access, available month to month.
Yes.
Every deal and every company is different. Engagements are tailored based on where you are in the deal lifecycle, your technical maturity, and what decision you need to make.
Yes.
Most engagements are delivered remotely. On-site sessions are available on request.
It depends on the tier, anywhere from a 1–2 week assessment to a 4–6 week sprint, or an ongoing month-to-month advisory relationship.
Trust & Experience
Yes.
I'm happy to sign a standard mutual NDA before reviewing confidential technical, financial, or product information.
Over a decade in technical presales at AWS and Snowflake, closing $22M+ in quota, now sitting on the other side of the table helping investors and founders make and defend technical decisions.
Primarily enterprise B2B SaaS, cloud, AI, and data companies, the same technical domains I spent my career in.
A clear, plain-language read you can act on, not just a set of slides. Founders leave with a plan; investors leave with a defensible view of the technology behind the deal.
