AI Strategy & Fractional CTO - Starter

A fractional CTO owns the technical direction part-time: architecture, stack and vendor choices, code and PR reviews, hiring and mentoring engineers, and translating product goals into a roadmap investors take seriously. My embedded engagement is 20 hours a week for four weeks at $4,999, renewable monthly. US fractional CTOs charge $8,000-12,000 a month for a similar allocation, so remote senior leadership from Bangladesh is a practical alternative.

Not on day one. Before you have paying users, what you need is a working product and someone senior enough to make the model, data and architecture decisions you will live with for years. A fractional CTO gives you that for a fraction of a co-founder's equity or a full-time salary. My $299 strategy session and $1,499 AI readiness audit are the low-risk ways to find out what your startup actually needs.

I'm a freelance AI product developer from Rajshahi, Bangladesh, working under the name Mursalin's Desk. I build AI agent SaaS products, AI-powered mobile apps with React Native and Expo, MVPs for startups, AI integrations for existing products, and full-stack web platforms on Next.js, NestJS and PostgreSQL. I also take on AI strategy and fractional CTO engagements for founders who need senior technical leadership without a full-time hire.

I'm based in Rajshahi, Bangladesh, and also work from Dhaka. Most of my clients are remote — startups and small companies in the US, UK, Canada, Australia and the EU. I can meet in person in Rajshahi or Dhaka when that helps, but every project I run is set up to work fully remotely from day one: shared repo, project board, async updates and scheduled calls.
