Technology leadership · Manufacturing & industrial
Fractional CTO for Manufacturing & industrial
Senior technology leadership on a fraction of a full-time hire — strategy, architecture, and a team that ships.
Why it matters in manufacturing & industrial
Production can't simply be rebooted. Downtime is measured in lost output, and the attack surface now spans both the factory floor and the back office.
- →OT/IT convergence: connecting plant and ERP without exposing safety-critical systems
- →Ransomware resilience where an outage stops the line, not just the email
- →Supply-chain and supplier security across a long, often analogue, chain
- →Modernising decades-old systems that can't be patched on a normal cadence

How we work in manufacturing & industrial
We segment and secure the boundary between OT and IT, plan for the outage you hope never happens, and make pragmatic calls about what to modernise, isolate, or replace.
