Hi, I'm Adam.
I help early-stage companies scale smarter.
Fractional Chief of Staff with the engineering depth to ship alongside the team. I work with founders to set up the rhythms a growing team needs, drive cross-functional execution, and handle the technical work that's been piling up.
Services
How I help.
Cross-functional execution
Migrations, launches, vendor consolidations, fundraises, board prep. I build the plan, organize the team, and drive the schedule from start to finish.
Operating cadence & systems
Weekly cadence, planning rhythm, useful metrics, and a tool stack that works for the team. The operating system a 10–50 person company needs as it scales.
Platform & engineering work
Internal tools, integrations, infrastructure work, automation. I write the code and run the deploys.
Selected Work
Recent work.
Live platform migration
I owned a live cutover spanning DNS, TLS, and a marketing-site re-platform for a venture-backed European startup. NS flip and first cert renewal in the same morning. No production impact.

I modernized the day-to-day operating stack at a venture-backed European startup: Jira → Linear migration, AI tooling in code review and GTM data, agent-ready marketing site. The GTM dashboard surfaced pipeline concentration risk and CRM hygiene gaps the team hadn't caught.

I ran NVIDIA GTC 2026 end-to-end: booth, LED truck, $175K prize raffle, 10-KPI measurement framework, segmented lead capture. Built so the team could run the same playbook again.

Background
With 10+ years across aerospace, tech, and AI, I've managed complex programs at Planet Labs, analyzed supply-chain operations at Apple, and most recently led operations at FlexAI — a venture-backed AI infrastructure startup — from seed stage through Series A.
I'm a fractional Chief of Staff for founder-led companies. I take on the cross-functional work that's stalling, install the operating rhythm the team is outgrowing, and handle the technical work that's been waiting.
I'm technical enough to automate what I build and strategic enough to sit in the room with investors.
Best Fit
- Founder-led, ~10–50 people
- Seed to Series B/C
- Tech, SaaS, and AI/ML
