The long view on software and AI strategy

The noise around AI is loud, but your business runs on software. I help you reason from business goals back to the experiments worth running, so the decisions you make this year still hold up two years from now.

What to expect

When tech leadership is missing from your team

Your business runs on software, but no one at the leadership table is thinking strategically about technology.

When your tech leadership needs a boost

Your tech leadership is doing the work, but holding the strategic conversation alone at the leadership table.

Pressure-test strategy, build-vs-buy, vendor steering, and AI direction

Bring an outside view to the questions insiders find hardest

Strengthen the technology voice in board and CEO conversations

What this looks like

I work alongside you to set and refine your technology strategy, so the choices that shape the business get made with intent.

Ivo Timmermans

I've invented and launched SaaS products, led engineering teams, and delivered cloud systems at global scale. I've worked through prior technology transitions, the kind that look obvious in hindsight but weren't at the time. Today I sit alongside you as a strategic technology advisor, bringing a long view to the decisions that matter most.

How I work

  • Start with business goals. What does success look like, in language the business already understands?
  • Experiment, then commit. Smaller, faster, safer than betting on a hunch.
  • Adopt with intent. Only what's earned its keep gets rolled out.
  • Build for the long term. Decisions that still make sense two years from now.
