Intro - Fractional CTO/Engineer

Posted .
Hi everyone, I'm Adam.
I help tech-driven companies architect and scale their infrastructure while building robust payment systems, marketplace platforms, and data pipelines that actually work.
With 15+ years in the trenches as a hands-on engineer and technical leader, I've specialized in turning complex technical challenges into elegant, scalable solutions. My sweet spot is the intersection of cloud infrastructure architecture, payment system development (particularly Stripe Connect marketplaces), data engineering/ML pipelines, and full-stack development. I've built HIPAA-compliant healthcare platforms, integrated dozens of EMR systems, and engineered complex data analysis pipelines for production ML systems.
Here's what I bring to fractional partnerships:
  • Payment Infrastructure Expertise – Building multi-party payment flows, Stripe Connect marketplaces, and PCI-compliant systems that handle millions in transactions
  • Cloud Architecture Excellence – Proven track record deploying cost-efficient cloud systems from day one, designing for scale without overspending
  • Data Engineering & ML Pipelines – Complex data analysis with pandas, building production ML pipelines, ETL processes, and turning messy data into actionable insights
  • Healthcare Tech Specialization – HIPAA-compliant architectures, EMR integrations, telehealth platforms built for scale
  • Technical Architecture & Integration – Seamlessly connecting disparate systems (Stripe, Twilio, SendGrid, Calendly, DocuSeal) into cohesive platforms
  • Infrastructure Excellence – Kubernetes deployments, infrastructure-as-code, achieving 99.9%+ uptime SLAs
Recent examples:
  • Built a healthcare SaaS platform with Stripe Connect marketplace infrastructure handling complex multi-party payment flows
  • Deployed production Kubernetes clusters with fully automated CI/CD pipelines for a B2B marketplace
  • Engineered data pipelines processing millions of healthcare records using pandas and custom ML models for predictive analytics
  • Integrated 10+ EMR systems into a unified data model with sophisticated data transformation and analysis layers
  • Designed and deployed cloud-native architectures optimized for cost-efficiency from inception
I'm particularly passionate about working with Healthcare/HealthTech companies, Professional Services firms, and B2B Marketplaces that need someone who can both architect the solution and roll up their sleeves to build it. I work best with teams that value high-automation tech stacks, need rapid scaling with smart data insights, or are going through technical transformations.
Availability: 10-15 hours per week
Looking forward to connecting with companies ready to transform their technical infrastructure, build payment systems that scale, and leverage their data intelligently.
