Need mobile-first web app for groups-based travel platform
Matt is a strategic thinker, master programmer, and clear communicator. He will help give strategic advice and feedback, along with his technical know-how. Matt is prompt with responses, and clear in his communication. I especially appreciated his straightforward answers to technical questions and the way he presented the pros and cons to each course. If I were to give feedback, I would recommend perhaps a more rigid timeline that both parties could agree to. That said, I appreciated his weekly updates that he sent unprompted. Again, Matt does great work and is highly recommended.
Thanks Matt!
Thanks Matt!

About Matt
Fractional CTO for SaaS: Eliminate Risk & Scale With Confidence
Elizabeth, United States - 8:23 am local time
Since 2005, I've helped non-technical SaaS founders implement solutions to problems that have kept them awake at night. Sometimes these solutions have involved coding; sometimes, they haven't. No matter the nature of the solution, I can help solve the critical technical problems that are slowing down your progress and distracting you from building your business.
---- HOW TO REDUCE RISK & SCALE WITH CONFIDENCE ----
What if you could ...?
✅ Stabilize your application and protect your professional reputation? When your app is slow or crashes from new users, it reflects poorly on your business. Build a scalable foundation that works flawlessly so you can demo to peers, customers, and investors with absolute confidence.
✅ Translate your business vision into a technical reality? It's daunting to manage developers whose work you don't fully understand. I step in to lead your team, eliminate "spaghetti code," and ensure every dollar spent builds reliable, testable features instead of breaking existing ones.
✅ Secure your investment and ace technical due diligence? Whether you're preparing for an exit, facing an M&A audit, or simply afraid your project might be unmaintainable if your lead developer quits, I eliminate the technical debt that threatens your company's value.
No matter the situation, I will develop a solution and implement it in a focused engagement that delivers absolute peace of mind.
----------- SOLUTIONS -----------
I've seen founders triumph and fail, so I know what works and what doesn't.
Here are some examples of things I can help you with:
➡ Beginning the next phase of your SaaS product development? Get it started on the right foot:
✅ Product roadmap
✅ Agile project planning
✅ Software architecture & stack selection
✅ Technology & marketplace strategy
➡ Lacking development process or having team problems? Eliminate your project killers:
✅ Hiring, interviewing, & developer sourcing
✅ Code reviews & sprint planning
✅ Training & team leadership
✅ Agile project management
✅ Testing & QA process implementation. CI/CD and TDD
✅ Development and strategy audits for investors
➡ Having specific technology issues? I've personally built products using hundreds of technologies and languages:
Full-Stack Web Development & DevOps:
✅ Ruby / Ruby on Rails
✅ Javascript / Typescript
✅ React / Angular / Vue / Svelte / Vanilla Javascript
✅ Amazon Web Services (AWS) / Kubernetes / Docker
✅ Elixir / Phoenix / Ecto
✅ Rust
✅ Python / Django
AI & Machine Learning:
✅ LLMs (Claude, Gemini, OpenAI, DeepSeek, etc.)
✅ Deep Learning & Neural networks
✅ Natural Language Processing
✅ Machine Translation
Vibe Coding Rescue:

Industry expertise and interests:

✅ Two-sided Marketplaces
✅ Education Technology (EdTech)
✅ Natural Language Learning / Linguistics
----------- MY CORE VALUES ------------
✅ Transparency: Technology experts sometimes use buzzwords to mask the truth. I speak plainly because I want you to know the reality of where your technology stands, so you can always make the best decisions possible for your business.
✅ Dedication: I'll strive to understand you and your business completely, so I can help you succeed. I won't work with dozens of clients at once, and I'll never disappear in the middle of a project.
✅ Honesty: I'll tell you exactly what works and what doesn't. This ensures that you'll always have the best, most reliable solution to any problem you face.
----------- WHO I WORK WITH -----------
I work directly with business owners who value quality, need their software to be dependable, and want to reclaim their time.
If you're looking for bottom-dollar, unrealistic deadlines, and corner-cutting, please look elsewhere. My mission is to help founders avoid this kind of thinking since I've seen it kill far too many businesses.
Most of my clients are US-based SaaS founders moving beyond the seed stage, but I'm flexible when it comes to time zone.
I prefer to work one-on-one with business owners so that we can build a foundation of trust and work together to achieve your goals. When I'm not engaged in a full-time role, I will work part-time with a maximum of two clients, so I can maintain my focus on your success.
------------ WORK WITH ME -------------
If you think we're a good fit to work together, click the green "Invite to Job" button at the top right corner of this page, and tell me a bit about your business.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Kind regards,
Matt Francois
