Russell Tech Strategy Information

Hi. I'm Tim Russell. I'm a strategic CTO and Co-Founder with over 20 years of deep technology experience, primarily in FinTech and InsurTech. I transform organizations from founder-led MVP solutions to enterprise-grade platforms that are scalable, secure, and stable. I bridge the gap between technical execution and business valuation. Most recently, I co-founded and scaled an InsurTech platform to the top 250 on the Inc. 5000 list, raising $6.6M in venture capital and achieving positive cash flow in year one. I specialize in the "Series A Chasm" — helping startups retire legacy technical debt, implement SOC 2 governance, and leverage modern technologies to maximize engineering velocity and business value. Throughout my career, I've served as a software engineer, team lead, architect, executive, and board member. I'm not just a code-writer; I'm a culture-builder. In my last leadership engagement, I scaled an international, distributed engineering team and maintained 0% regrettable turnover. I'd love to achieve the same for your team.
