Work with me
A senior technical partner when it matters most
I help fast-moving teams build platforms that don't suck, ship AI that actually works, and lead through the hard technical calls — drawing on 20+ years across Apple, Yahoo, 8×8, and a frontier AI lab.
How I can help
Three ways teams bring me in.
Fractional CTO
Senior technical leadership without a full-time hire — strategy, architecture, hiring, and rolling up my sleeves when it counts.
DevEx & Platform advisory
Make your engineers faster and happier: internal platforms, CI/CD, golden paths, and the DORA/SPACE metrics to prove it's working.
See my DevEx work →AI & automation
Ship real AI features and automate the busywork — from clean API design to production-grade LLM workflows.
What you get
- Ship faster, with fewer fires
- A platform your engineers actually like using
- A clear, prioritized technical roadmap
- AI and automation applied where they pay off
- Senior judgment on the calls that matter
- Knowledge that stays with your team
How it works
Intro call
A quick, no-pressure call to understand your goals, team, and where things hurt.
A focused plan

We execute
We ship. You get momentum, and your team levels up along the way.

Replace this with a real testimonial (you have some on gardnertechgroup.com). Matt turned our tangled deploy process into something the whole team actually trusts.
