Fractional technical leadership

You have a software product and
no one you trust to tell you
if it's any good.

I take the technical seat. Architecture, delivery, and the engineering team, owned end to end by someone who has done it before. For companies with no technical lead, or one on the way out.

Got it. I'll get in touch shortly.

No pitch. If I'm not the right fit, I'll say so on the call.

Nobody owns the
technical side.

🧩

There is no technical lead

You have customers, revenue, or funding, and no one to own architecture, delivery, and the decisions that come with them.

Your technical lead is leaving

Undocumented knowledge is walking out on a known date, and replacing a CTO realistically takes three to five months.

📐

The build hasn't started

You know what the product needs to do. You need someone to scope it, architect it, and put a team on it.

🔍

You have a team you don't trust

There are developers, but you are not confident they can deliver, and you have no way to check the estimates and excuses you are given.

🤖

AI features that don't work

You built an LLM or RAG feature and the outputs are unreliable, hallucinating, or too slow to ship.

⚖️

Every decision lands on you

Architecture, vendors, hiring, security. You are approving all of it on instinct because there is no one else to ask.

Track record

What it looks like when I take the seat

No technical lead
Logistics SaaS
Carrier Integrations & Cloud Platform
The situation

Customers had been waiting years for a cloud product. No technical lead, no team, no codebase. The business had the demand and the carrier relationships (FedEx, DHL, UPS, USPS), just no one to build it.

Stepped in as the missing technical lead. Built the cloud architecture on Go, Postgres, and Kubernetes. Recruited and ran an offshore team. Shipped to production and onboarded customers in 6 months.
6 mo
Zero to live customers, from a standing start
Acquired
By Redwood Logistics within 4 years of launch
Team underdelivering
Marketplace Platform
Payments & Multi-platform SaaS
The situation

The owner had an engineering team he was no longer confident could deliver. A multi-platform SaaS (Flutter, Angular, Go, Django) with broken payment flows, a transaction bug silently dropping customer data, and a hard launch deadline that couldn't move.

Took the technical lead seat. Rebuilt the team, owned every production release, traced bugs to specific commits from the prior engineers, and scoped delivery to hit the deadline without overpromising. Still the sole maintainer.

The Briggsmore Method

One repeatable process, whether the codebase exists yet or not, now accelerated with AI. See how it works →

01

Audit or Blueprint

If code exists, I review the codebase, architecture, and infrastructure, and tell you what's broken, what's salvageable, and what it costs to fix. If it doesn't exist yet, I deliver the blueprint instead: architecture, stack decisions, build plan, cost and timeline.

$2,500 fixed. 5 business days. Yours to keep either way, and credited in full against your first month if we go further.
02

Prioritized Roadmap

I turn that into a sequenced plan. You know what needs to happen, in what order, and what each phase costs before committing to anything further.

No surprises. No scope creep.
03

Ownership

I take the technical seat and ship. Building from zero, stabilizing what exists, standing up a team, or getting an AI pipeline to production-grade. When the work needs more hands, I bring in engineers I have worked with before. Every release goes through me.

You stay in the loop. I handle the technical decisions.
Who does this work

Owning the technical
side is all I do.

I am Rex Posadas. I have spent over a decade building and running production systems for startups. I have taken the technical seat at companies that had no one in it, assembled teams from scratch, and shipped products that went on to get acquired.

I have built AI systems in pharma, medical devices, logistics, and marketplace platforms. I know what these builds look like from the inside, including how they go wrong. When a build needs more hands, I bring in engineers I have worked with before. Every release goes through me.

Co-founded SXSW finalist startup; grew team to 14 engineers.
Built cloud logistics SaaS from zero as sole technical lead. Acquired within 4 years.
Took the technical lead seat on a multi-platform SaaS mid-flight. Shipped on deadline.

Is this the right fit?

I take on projects that match one of these situations.

No technical lead to build the product You have demand and a vision but no one to own the architecture and get it built.
Your technical lead is leaving You need continuity now and a real handoff to whoever you hire next.
Hard deadline with no team to hit it Investor demo, launch, or app store submission and you need engineers who can move now.
AI feature that isn't production-ready LLM or RAG outputs are unreliable or hallucinating and you can't ship it in its current state.
Previous team departed or was fired You inherited a codebase with no documentation and no one left who understands it.

Tell me what you're building.

Twenty minutes, no pitch. I'll tell you what I'd do and whether I'm the right person to do it.

Got it. I'll get in touch shortly.
