Technical Strategy

A technical strategy is an integral part of architecture.

Not only do we need to know the current structure and interactions of a system, we should also plan how it might evolve.

The explosion of AI capabilities has compressed timelines and expanded possibilities. What took months now takes weeks. What seemed impossible is now routine. In this environment, strategy isn’t about predicting the future—it’s about building the capacity to adapt faster than change.

I help engineering leaders develop technical strategies that align teams, enable rapid iteration, and create sustainable competitive advantage.

AI Opportunity Overload

Every week brings new AI capabilities. You know you need to adapt, but you’re not sure where to start or how to evaluate the real opportunities versus the hype. You need a framework for making decisions.

Misaligned Priorities

Engineering is building things that don’t seem to connect to business goals. Product and engineering speak different languages. You need a strategy that creates shared understanding and focuses effort.

Growth Without Direction

You’ve succeeded, but you’re not sure what comes next. The team is busy, but you’re not confident the work adds up to a coherent direction. You need to step back and chart a course.

Published Values and Product Strategy

A clear articulation of what your organization believes and where it’s headed—not abstract statements, but practical guidelines that inform daily decisions. Your team will know how to make trade-offs when you’re not in the room.

Metrics and Targets with Clear Checkpoints

Measurable goals that connect technical work to business outcomes. Regular checkpoints that surface problems early and create opportunities to adjust course before small issues become big ones.

A Process to Adapt to Change

Strategy that expects change rather than resisting it. A system for gathering signals, evaluating options, and making decisions quickly—so you can respond to AI advances, market shifts, and competitive moves without losing momentum.
