Early-stage HealthTech companies need senior technical leadership—but not always a full-time CTO. Thaumatec’s fractional CTO gives you guidance two days a week, helping you avoid costly decisions, hire better, and build investor trust.
Integration blockers this package removes:
No senior technical voice in investor conversations and board meeting
Engineering team lacks direction — architecture decisions made ad-hoc
Regulatory and compliance strategy not embedded in product development
Vendor and technology stack selection driven by recency bias, not fit
What you get - The four pillars of fractional CTO engagement
Weekly Leadership Sessions
Your senior technical partner — every week.
60–90 minute structured session with founder/CEO and key technical leads
Technical roadmap review and prioritisation — weekly cadence
Engineering team health check — velocity, blockers, morale, retention risks
Decision support on architecture, hiring, and build vs. buy choices
Engineering Team Structure
Build the right team before you build the wrong product.
Organisational design — roles, seniority mix, reporting structure
Job description crafting and technical interview process design
Onboarding and knowledge management framework for a growing team
Team performance assessment and constructive feedback structures
Investor-Level Technical Communication
Turn your technical story into a funding asset.
Technical due diligence preparation — answering the hard questions
Pitch deck technical sections — architecture diagrams, scalability narrative
Regulatory readiness communication for Medtech and digital health investors
Board and investor update communications — technical metrics and milestones
Vendor Selection & Architecture
Buy smart. Build what differentiates
Technology stack selection — informed by regulatory, scale, and team constraints
Build vs. buy vs. partner analysis for every major platform component
Vendor and tooling shortlisting with regulatory compliance scoring
Architecture review of proposals from contractors, agencies, and vendors
