Technical leadership that delivers.
Hands-on engineering leadership for founders scaling AI, robotics, and regulated deep tech. We lead the team, own the risk, and hand you something that works.
What we do
A senior technical leadership studio for founders scaling hard things.
We embed with startups and scale-ups in high-stakes sectors, as the technical leadership they don't yet have on staff.
Lead the team.
Embedded, hands-on engineering leadership: the senior technical voice your roadmap is missing.
Own the risk.
Systems, regulatory, and delivery risk, carried by someone who has carried it before.
Ship the product.
From Phase 0 to production. We measure ourselves by what ships, not what's advised.
How we work
We think in systems, and take the biggest risks first.
As the technical program lead, we map the system, sequence the work by risk, and drive the team to the milestones that ship.
The proof.
Led the team from development to validation of an 8-robot, ISO-5 aseptic line (GAMP 5) for implantable ocular devices.
Supported the electrical engineering team improving automated PCB and sub-system test for autonomous warehouse robotics.
Technical lead for a 60-person team launching a blockchain-powered metaverse on Unreal Engine.
Our first product
We don't only advise. We build and ship. InkLine Concierge is ours.
The line that never goes dead.
The complete studio operating system for tattoo studios, led by a 24/7 AI concierge that never clocks out.
