Phil Jackson -- topNotch Technology Consulting taking engagements

fractional cto -- development / scaling / automation / ai adoption

Senior technical guidance, sized for your needs.

Two decades of scaling, shipping, and change management. Former CTO at cPanel. Ex-IBMer. Now I help make the technical calls you can’t afford to get wrong without the cost of a full-time executive.

Fractional CTO/CPO
Technical and product strategy, architecture design, product market fit, backoffice tooling, vendor management, coaching. Extensive experience with compliance: HIPAA, FERPA.
Architecture & infrastructure review
Build or buy analysis and vendor selection. Validating choices before inking the commitment. Understandable deliverables rather than 40 pages of fluff.
Rescue & modernization
Archaeological deep dives on systems, operating procedures, and the server running under the desk. I have seen worse and I can help untangle choices of the past and learn from past decisions.
Growing Teams
Interview loops, SDLC, DevOps pipelines, your first technical hires. A team designed to not need me.
