Fractional data leadership and short-term gigs for founders and small teams. Fixed-fee. Scoped before we start. Delivered by the same person you spoke to.
Part-time, ongoing work as your senior data person. Architecture decisions, governance, someone to call when something breaks — without the full-time salary. You get senior expertise for the hours you actually need.
Specific problem. Fixed scope. Fixed fee. I go in, do the work, and hand it back. Data model for a new product. Warehouse that needs cleaning. AI pipeline that isn't working. One problem, solved.

A contractor works full-time on one engagement. Fractional means you get senior expertise across the hours you actually need — not a full-time salary for a part-time problem. And you're not managing someone's employment.
Probably. Founders who sort the data foundation early spend less fixing it later. The diagnostic will tell you what's actually relevant for your stage — and whether it's worth acting on now or in six months.
