Build like a funded company, on a founder's budget.
Young companies rarely fail on the idea. They fail when finance, selling or technology is handled by whoever had a spare week, and the bill comes later.
Why founders reach for senior help early
Founders who start in Miami, or move here, meet the same walls:
Investors elsewhere want their usual reporting
A fund in New York or the Bay expects a pack and a data room built the way it is used to, from a team of six.
A distributed team without a technical lead
Engineers in several time zones and a founder who cannot judge their work.
The founder is the sales team
It works until the calendar is full, and then it stops.
A senior hire eats the runway
A full-time executive consumes a large share of what the investors put in.
A fractional executive gives a young company an operator who has done this before, for the time it needs. It is the difference between paying for your own lessons and borrowing someone who has already paid.
Who this is for, and who it is not
Best for
- Founders wearing every hat with no senior cover where it matters most
- Pre-seed to pre-Series A companies that need structure before they can fund it
- Teams that need investor-grade finance, reporting or operations at speed
- Startups scaling headcount faster than their processes can hold
- Founders who want to protect the cap table while adding senior leadership
Not for
- An idea with no product or traction to build structure around yet
- A role a capable full-time hire is already ready to own
- Founders looking to outsource a function rather than lead it
- A single deliverable an agency or contractor could hand back
A first executive with backup
Founders who moved here to build need senior judgement before they can pay for it full time. We match with care and keep our hand on the engagement.
Close to the engagement
A short review with the founder every few weeks catches drift before it eats a quarter.
A collective behind your first executive
Behind your first executive stand 800+ peers in the collective. A product question that turns out to be a payments question finds someone who has built one.
The roadmap keeps its owner
If they leave, you keep the momentum: your brief is on file, we restart the search and we look after the transition.
Matched to founder pace
A founder needs someone who works at their speed, and a CV does not show that. Temperament is part of the match.
