How It Works For Companies For CTOs Get Started

Our Mission

We're democratizing access to elite technical leadership by creating the most trusted marketplace for CTOs and companies to find their perfect match.

Too many startups fail not because of a bad idea, but because they lack the technical leadership to execute. Meanwhile, talented CTOs often find themselves stuck in roles that don't challenge them or allow them to make real impact.

CTOer bridges this gap. We've built a curated network of exceptional technical leaders — people who've built and scaled products at companies you know — and connected them with ambitious companies ready to build something meaningful.

What We
Stand For

🎯

Quality Over Quantity

We vet every CTO rigorously. Only the top 5% make it into our network. We'd rather have fewer, exceptional matches than many mediocre ones.

🤝

Trust & Transparency

We're honest about what we can and can't do. We set clear expectations and communicate openly with both CTOs and companies.

Speed Matters

In the startup world, timing is everything. We move fast without sacrificing quality — most matches happen within 48 hours.

🌱

Long-Term Thinking

We're not just making placements — we're building lasting partnerships. Many of our fractional CTOs become full-time leaders or co-founders.
