Software Development Process Consulting

In today’s fast-paced world, adopting proven methodologies is essential for teams looking to stay competitive. With decades of experience, I specialize in helping teams streamline processes, improve efficiency, and foster collaboration using proven process frameworks.

Offshore Readiness Consulting

Considering offshoring or nearshoring your development team but facing challenges? With 15+ years of experience managing global teams across Asia, North America, South America, Europe, and the Middle East, I can help you avoid common pitfalls and ensure smooth remote team management.

Agile + AI Development Process Consulting

Unlock the full potential of your development team with expert consulting that blends AI-driven efficiencies with Agile best practices. We help you streamline workflows, enhance collaboration, and implement cutting-edge tools to accelerate delivery, improve quality, and drive sustainable growth.

Fractional CTO & Technical Consulting

Whether you’re a startup needing interim leadership or an established company seeking expert guidance, my fractional CTO and VP of Engineering services provide the flexibility, expertise, and strategic insight you need—without the risk and high cost of a full-time hire.

Pre-Investment Tech Due Diligence

OtterWorks helps investors evaluate technology investment targets for scalability, capability, and long-term viability. Our experienced technical leaders apply a pragmatic, experience-driven 10-area assessment to gauge the maturity and risks tied to teams, processes, tools, architecture, code, and roadmaps. We provide clear, data-driven insights, enabling investors to make confident, informed decisions.

Scaling Up Process Optimization

Growth often reveals inefficiencies in your development processes. If your current workflows are struggling to keep up with increasing demand, I can help you implement scalable, adaptable processes that support your expansion. With expertise in Agile methodologies, team structures, and workflow automation, I ensure your company’s growth doesn’t come at the cost of quality, speed, or team morale.
