We're retained on a Fractional CTO mandate for an established, profitable B2B fintech SaaS business at a genuine inflection point - transitioning from a mature desktop platform into a modular, cloud-native SaaS architecture, in a market where buyer expectations are shifting fast.
The CEO is looking for a senior technology leader to provide an independent, evidence-led view of the delivery function, architecture, and organisational design - and then drive the resulting changes into execution. This is not an advisory piece. The output must produce committed decisions, not further workshops.
The engagement, in short:
* Report to the Board end of May, 90-day plan in execution within a week
* Scope spans architecture, delivery model, product/org design, AI & UX translation, and a perception-vs-reality audit
* Engineering footprint: ~8 internal + ~16 outsourced
What we're looking for:
* CTO-level operator with clear fintech pedigree
* Demonstrable experience of a desktop-to-SaaS or monolith-to-modular transition
* Hands-on technical credibility - architecture and code, not just decks
* Experience leading or restructuring outsourced engineering models
* Comfortable landing sharp, evidence-based findings in a politically live environment
Hybrid - exec team in London, engineering in Dublin. Remote with travel to both.
