CTO | AI & SaaS Strategist | Venture Advisor | Author
CTO with LinkedIn Premium and an AI/SaaS track record across Levi Strauss, Blackhawk Network, and Accela backed by AWS/GCP certifications — strong profile on paper — but all current roles are fractional/part-time (FastCTO consulting model reduces hiring-decision ICP fit), and flip phase downgrade applied for zero engagement.
Your AI/ML lead at Levi's plus running FastCTO is a rare combo, both sides of build and advise. The teams I see scaling fastest right now embed senior LatAm AI and Kubernetes engineers directly inside the eng org, not orbiting it. Curious what your FastCTO clients usually hit first when they need to scale, hiring speed or vetting depth?
2026-05-12 20:06FastCTO advisory plus Kubernetes, AWS, and AI at scale is the exact stack most series B founders ask us to staff. We are placing senior cloud and ML engineers from LatAm at 40 to 60 percent of US rates with full timezone overlap. Worth a look at how the model fits your portfolio companies?
