SoCal CTO
DECEMBER 10, 2012
Structure development contracts appropriately or directing the in-house team appropriately. Review the code being built. Look at the business and determine what's going to make sense from a development perspective in the short-term, longer-term. Would you create contracts without an attorney?

What worries me a bit is how often I read that startups should hire a developer / hands-on lead developer. But often the result of a Founder hiring a developer or lead developer or even a VP engineering is a gap created between the founders and the developers. What do we build in-house or outsource?

They had a prominent NorCal investor already so I thought a SoCal lead would make sense – that I could help them in a more hands-on way.

I had been competing to win a contract at Thames Water, the largest water company in the UK. They were looking for a collaboration tool to manage all of their large water development projects. The initial contract was worth about $500,000 and the whole value of the contract would have been worth a couple of million over the years.

I've previously addressed the role of a CTO in early-stages in my post Startup CTO or Developer. for a Lead Developer: How much will it cost to build what we need to build? for a Lead Developer: How much will it cost to build what we need to build? How can I control costs but effectively get stuff developed? Accounting?
