Operator, not commentator.
True Ownership
Contractors bill hours. Freelancers close tickets. I own the build end-to-end: architecture, development, and deployment.
Beyond the Launch
Most of what breaks a product happens after version one, not before. I stay past launch to ensure your platform scales securely.
Practical AI Integration
You don't need AI theatre. I build practical, embedded AI workflows that cut delivery times and automate real operational friction.
Most fractional leaders offer advice. I offer execution. I work directly with early-stage and growth-stage B2B SaaS founders whose ideas or AI-built MVPs have outgrown their foundations. If you don't have in-house technical leadership yet, I step in to own the outcome, not just write code.
Built for founders who build for a living.
Early-stage and growth-stage B2B SaaS founders who need production-grade code, scalable architecture, and someone who actually owns the outcome.
Your engineering team is busy, but progress feels slow and predictable delivery is missing.
You have an idea or an AI-built MVP that has completely outgrown its foundation.
You need senior technical judgment, but you do not need a full-time CTO yet.
You want someone to own the build end-to-end so you can focus on growth and revenue.
Six years owning the outcome.
If you have hired developers before and still cannot say what actually shipped, you already know the problem. Contractors bill hours. Freelancers close tickets. Almost nobody treats your product like it is theirs.
I am Bilal Umrani. I step in as a Fractional CTO to own architecture, development, and deployment from day one, keeping your platform scaling long after version one launches.

What clients say
Bilal was always reachable, and the communication was very constructive. It was a real pleasure working with him over the many weeks our project was going on.
Robin Prause, CTO at smartport
I worked on two complex AI implementations with Bilal, and Bilal delivered on spec and on budget. Looking forward to working with Bilal again.
