How I work
One client at a time, full-time, so you get my full attention, not a slice of it. Next opening: February 2027. Every engagement has a set scope and an end date.
It always starts with a review. The review tells us which kind of stuck it is, and that picks one of two ways forward.
1. Roadmap and delivery review
2 weeks, fixed, from €4,000. Where it's stuck, why, and what to do first.
A written diagnosis, a prioritised plan, one decision that's been waiting for months made,
and a session with your leadership team. It counts toward the next step if we keep going.

2. Tactical: special-projects lead
The work is stuck. A stalled initiative, or a new product line nobody has room for.
I lead it with your team until it ships. A set scope and end date, renewable if it's working.

3. Strategic: interim head of product
The decisions are stuck. No one in the product seat, so it all waits for one or two people.
I run product until your next lead is in, then hand over.

Either way, nobody loses their seat. Your product people keep their roadmap; I take what no one has room for, and hand it back moving. Not a deck and a goodbye: the review gives you the plan, then I stay and get it done with your team.
I work with your CTO on what to build and why. Code practices, CI/CD and architecture stay with your engineering team.
What it looks like in practice: Elucidat and PepsiCo, or all previous work.
Prices
- Review: from €4,000, fixed. It counts toward the next step if we keep going, and the plan is yours to keep if we don't.
- Special-projects lead or interim head of product: a monthly fee for a set length, agreed once the review shows what the job is.
At the end of a block
We review what's moved against the scope we set. Then you pick: a new block with new goals, or a clean handover: a handover pack with the written decisions and docs, and a trained owner on your team or the product lead I helped you hire.
What I don't do
- No code in your codebase. I may prototype to test an idea, never inside it.
- No process for its own sake: every change has to unblock something.
- No part-time or a day a week. Half attention gets half results.
- Consumer apps, mobile-first products, or hardware. B2B software only.
Terms
- Every engagement starts with the review, so the quote is based on what's actually there, not a guess.
- Working hours and time zones agreed in writing. Taking on another team or market midway is a scope change.
- If something outside the scope comes up, we agree it in writing before I start on it.
- A fixed end date for every block. After it: a new block or a clean handover.
- Same terms for everyone.
- Prices exclude VAT.
