Karl Schmidt - Technical Consultant

Consulting & Advisory Services

Are you a CEO, COO, or first-time CTO? I help executives like you with your technology strategy and engineering organization.

1. Technical Audit

Do you need an expert, outsider view of your technology choices and development practices? Is your team struggling to deliver quality? I offer a technical audit solution to get you answers and recommendations.

2. Technical Advisor

Looking for help from someone who has been there? I provide insight and mentorship from my almost two decades of shipping software and building teams.

3. Fractional CTO

Tech-enabled businesses don’t always need a full-time CTO. I take on targeted CTO responsibilities to help move your business forward.
