Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolNicolas Cava is a Fractional CTO and engineering leader with 11 years of hands-on experience helping pre-seed and seed B2B SaaS founders avoid costly rewrites and scale reliably. He brings enterprise-grade engineering discipline from scale-ups and exits—co-leading tech strategy for a $13.5M vertical sale and scaling platforms to handle billions of customer interactions. Nicolas embeds into startups to professionalize stack, team and workflows, implements AI-enabled SDLCs that cut deployment cycles by ~50%, and hires and manages top-tier engineers so founders can focus on PMF. Previously he rebuilt burnt-out teams and shipped real-time systems at companies like PixMob, Zendesk and Swile during hypergrowth. He operates month-to-month with no equity required and claims delivery at roughly 10% of a full-time CTO’s cost. Based in Quebec, he combines founder empathy (five startups launched) with a practical focus on Series A readiness and rebuild prevention.
