I’m a Forward Deployed Executive
I sit with an executive, learn how they actually work, and build the software they need that doesn’t exist yet.How I help executives solve expensive problems
01 Discovery call
Book a discovery call with me.
I interview you with a software app built for exactly this, the Chief Live Sessions app. It records the conversation and builds the transcript as we talk, so nothing has to be written down twice and nothing gets lost between what you said and what gets built.
The questions are about how you actually work: what you open first, what you retype every week, the judgment call you keep making by hand because nobody ever built the thing that would make it once. What you would want a piece of software to change about your day, if it could be shaped around you rather than around a thousand other companies.
What comes out is a deep set of requirements rather than a wish list, enough to start building against straight away.
turns conversations into code specifications.
02 Rapid prototyping
I build software you can use, in hours.
Those requirements go straight into Sparkle, an agentic coding app I built for AI-native founders. No retyping. No handoff. No interpretation layer.
Sparkle runs up to eighty agents in parallel on the same set of requirements: a concierge that holds the whole picture, orchestrators that break the work apart, and workers that each build their piece in isolation. It’s the McLaren F1 cockpit of code editors.
You get a working prototype in hours, or at most days, and you approve it before anyone commits to a full build. The point is that you are reacting to real software rather than to a document describing software, which is the only reliable way to find out that what you asked for is not quite what you wanted.
03 Production grade deployment
A prototype is not the hard part. Shipping it inside your company is.
I spent years building the deployment software that the world’s largest companies run their releases through, including JPMorgan Chase, The Home Depot and Autodesk. That is the part most people skip: a prototype that works on a laptop is a long way from software your security review, your compliance team and your on call rotation will accept.
So the prototype is not where this stops. I know how to turn one into a production grade system inside a corporate environment, and what it takes to get it there.
Speaking of custom software…
