We are business critical software experts with deep experience in fintech, medtech, healthcare, analytics-as-a-service and other regulated industries.

We work with early stage startups, faster-growers and traditional large enterprises.

We consult not just to give advice but to take responsibility for results.

We work in technical leadership roles, such as: Interim Chief Technology Officer, Chief Data Officer, VP of Engineering and Technical Recruiter on interim, part-time and project assignments.
