Fractional CTO
Client-Facing / Delivery & Stakeholder Management
USD $150–$200/hour
5–10 hours/week
The Role
We're hiring a Fractional CTO to support our internal CTO and serve as a senior technical leader in client-facing engagements. This is a part-time, fully remote contractor role where you'll own high-trust stakeholder communication, help clients make confident product and engineering decisions, and ensure delivery stays aligned with business goals. You'll be the executive-level bridge between clients and our engineering teams—leading discovery, shaping delivery strategy, managing expectations, and translating complex technical realities into clear business outcomes. This is a strong fit if you enjoy consulting-style leadership without taking on a full-time executive role.
What You'll Do
- Lead client-facing technical strategy: join discovery, roadmap, and executive stakeholder calls
- Support the KRON CTO by owning portions of account leadership: communication, alignment, escalation management
- Define and validate product direction: clarify goals, scope, constraints, success metrics, and risks
- Shape solution architecture and delivery approach: recommend stack, build vs. buy, integrations, security, scalability, and cost trade-offs
- Translate business needs into engineering execution: create clear epics/user stories, acceptance criteria, and delivery milestones
- Set delivery expectations: timelines, dependencies, risks, and blockers—communicate early and proactively
- Drive clarity and decision-making: facilitate trade-off decisions with non-technical stakeholders and keep projects moving
- Produce crisp documentation: meeting notes, action items, decision logs, and executive-ready status updates
- Improve delivery operations: lightweight process improvements across discovery → build → launch (without bureaucracy)
- Identify expansion opportunities: spot upsell/cross-sell needs (performance, analytics, AI, mobile, security) and support light pre-sales when appropriate
- Build long-term stakeholder trust: become a credible, steady technical advisor for key accounts
What We're Looking For
- Native-level English (spoken and written); confident leading calls with US clients and executive stakeholders
- 10+ years in senior engineering roles and/or technical leadership (Tech Lead, Architect, Head of Engineering, VP Eng, CTO, Fractional CTO)
- Strong understanding of modern software delivery: web, mobile, APIs, cloud infrastructure, data, and AI
- Proven ability to translate between business and engineering and align diverse stakeholders
- Comfortable with US time zones and communication style
- Highly organized and reliable: you close loops, document decisions, and keep teams aligned
- Able to work independently in a fully remote environment with minimal oversight
Nice-to-Have
- Prior experience with US-based clients and enterprise stakeholders
- Background in pre-sales, consulting, customer success, or account leadership
- Experience in FinTech, eCommerce, or AI-enabled products
- Familiarity with security/compliance expectations (SOC 2, data privacy, regulated environments)
Time & Schedule
- Part-time: typically 5–10 hours/week (may vary by client load)
- Flexible schedule, with availability for calls in US time zones when needed
- Fully remote—based anywhere
This is a senior, high-trust role: you'll represent KRON at an executive level for key accounts, and compensation reflects that. We never ask candidates to pay fees or purchase equipment as part of the hiring process.
