Career or technical consult
60 min · online · for engineers and managers
Ref. No. 42-CA
Sometimes you do not need “another framework” but an honest mirror: where you sit in the company system, what actually holds scale, and a next step that is not smeared across a quarter.
One hour focused on one layer — either technical (audit, risks, roadmap), or career (role, negotiations, move toward lead/CTO), or a tight mix when they are inseparable.
Format: short context from you, then dense questions and structured options. No motivational posters.
Best when
- FIX You are an engineer or lead who can name one primary uncertainty for the hour (technical or career).
- FIX You want next-step options and “how we would know it worked” — not generic motivation.
- FIX You can summarise context without breaking NDA or asking me to “assess the whole company” in 60 minutes.
Typical scenarios
Technical
- Service architecture, trade-offs, debt, risks before a release or hiring push.
- Interview or investor pitch prep — clarity over buzzwords.
Career & role
- IC → lead → CTO: what changes in expectations and in how you work with people.
- Compensation talks, scope, offer red flags.
After the call
- 01 1–3 concrete steps or hypotheses to test; referrals when you need lawyer/recruiter/etc.
