Fractional CTO & Product Builder - Available to Help Founders Scale Beyond MVP
If you’ve built an MVP that’s showing promise but starting to creak under real users, I can help you take it from works-for-now to ready-to-scale.
I’m Steven, a designer-turned-CTO who’s spent nearly two decades building and growing SaaS products. I partner with early-stage founders to turn quick prototypes into stable, scalable, investor-ready products.
What I bring:
• Product strategy and technical architecture from someone who’s both designed and built full platforms
• Modern, maintainable codebases (JAMStack) that scale cleanly
• Strong UX and design systems that make products feel premium from day one
• Hands-on implementation, not just advice, to get you to your next milestone fast
Perfect fit if you’re:
• Hitting limitations with a no-code or low-code MVP
• Seeing traction but struggling with reliability or performance
• Ready to attract customers or investors with a polished, production-ready product
I typically join as a fractional CTO or technical partner, helping founders define their roadmap, strengthen their stack, and deliver confidently to users or investors.
If that sounds like where you are, drop a comment or DM me, I’m happy to review your MVP, share examples, or discuss what scaling up could look like for you.
Let's grow something together!
Hey Steven, got a fractional HR and CMO 6 new clients this month with signal based outreach. Thought of a partnership here to get you some SaaS startups to work with
Hey Colin,
This sounds interesting, let's connect and see how we can work together - [email protected]
Will connect there, thanks
Hi Steven,
I am the co-founder of Cymbiose AI, an AI assistant for psychotherapists that reduces the time they spend on clinical documentation and provides culturally responsive clinical insights. You can check out our current MVP website for our closed user group: https://cymbiose.ai
We are a team of seven that includes a head of technical development and a product designer (but will be leaving soon) working with two developers, but we are in need of some assistance with managing and then scaling the product beyond our current beta testing phase. If you're interested, please drop your email or contact information and I'll reach out!
Thank you,
PG
Thanks for reaching out.
I’m open to learning more about where you are in the beta and what kind of help you’re looking for post-launch, particularly in terms of technical leadership, architecture, or scaling. Could you share a bit about your current stack and what level of commitment you’re hoping for (e.g., fractional advisory, hands-on build, etc.)?
Feel free to respond to me directly at [email protected].
