Services built on practical engineering

Every offering focuses on removing friction, stopping waste, and shipping working software.

Fractional CTO

Senior technical leadership without the permanent 200k payroll.

Our team steps in two days a week to fix your roadmap, mentor your engineers, and stop expensive vendor blunders.

Specific Deliverables
  • Architecture roadmap and sprint governance
  • Direct hiring, technical vetting, and team mentoring
  • Board-ready technical reporting and budget control

Stuck Project Rescue

Deadlines burned and velocity dropped to zero.

We dissect your blocked pull requests, kill phantom dependencies, and get working code shipped before next Monday.

Specific Deliverables
  • 72-hour code and infrastructure triage
  • Removal of technical blockers and broken dependencies
  • Emergency sprint plan with verified release milestones

Vibe Code to Production

Your Cursor prototype works on local but crashes on real users.

We rebuild the prompt soup into typed schemas, add real databases, and turn your demo into a durable product.

Specific Deliverables
  • Transition from prompt spaghetti to robust typed architecture
  • Security hardening, authentication, and permission models
  • Production database migrations and scalable cloud hosting

Fast MVP to PMF

Six months of planning for an app nobody has clicked yet.

We cut sixty percent of the backlog and build only what real buyers pay for.

Specific Deliverables
  • Scope reduction to core transaction loops
  • Rapid deployment of verifiable user test builds
  • Continuous instrumentation to measure real retention

Integration Wizardry

Five SaaS tools and three APIs refusing to talk to each other.

We wire clean webhooks, tame legacy endpoints, and make your pipeline behave like a single coherent system.

Specific Deliverables
  • Resilient webhook architecture with automated retries
  • Legacy API wrappers and data normalization
  • Elimination of manual copy-paste spreadsheet handoffs

Deployment Velocity and Cloud

Deployments require three meetings and prayer on Sunday night.

We replace manual SSH routines with automated pipelines that deploy in under four minutes with zero downtime.

Specific Deliverables
  • Automated CI/CD with automated testing checks
  • Zero-downtime containerized releases on AWS or GCP
  • Instant rollback mechanisms and live log visibility

Engagement structures

Transparent options designed for rapid intervention or ongoing technical leadership.

One-off diagnostic

72-Hour Technical Triage

Exhaustive deep-dive into your repository, architecture, and deployment bottlenecks. You get a prioritized action plan within two business days.

Best for

Founders evaluating code quality before investment or after an engineering slowdown.

Discuss this model with our team
Two-week unblocking engagement

The Stuck Project Sprint

Hands-on intervention. We dive directly into the codebase, resolve architectural logjams, ship critical features, and re-establish team momentum.

Best for

Teams with missed deadlines, broken releases, or stalled AI prototypes.

Discuss this model with our team
1 to 2 days per week

Fractional CTO Retainer

Senior executive technical direction embedded directly in your leadership team. Strategy, architecture, vendor audits, and technical recruitment.

Best for

Scaleups that need seasoned CTO authority without full-time executive overhead.

Discuss this model with our team

Big technical questions. Straight answers.

What we fix, how we work, and where to start when your software stops cooperating.

What does Cyber Surfer help with?

Cyber Surfer provides fractional CTO leadership, stuck software project rescue, AI-generated prototype production hardening, MVP development, API integrations, and cloud deployment automation. We work with founders, scaleups, and engineering teams remotely worldwide.

When should we bring in a fractional CTO?

Bring us in when your team needs senior technical decisions without a full-time CTO hire. Our fractional CTO work covers roadmaps, architecture, hiring, engineer mentoring, vendor reviews, and technical reporting, with retainers of 1 to 2 days per week.

Can you rescue a stalled software project?

Yes. Our Stuck Project Rescue service starts with code and infrastructure triage to identify blockers, broken dependencies, and release risks. The Stuck Project Sprint is a two-week hands-on engagement to resolve architectural logjams and ship critical features.

Can you turn an AI-generated or vibe-coded prototype into a production product?

Yes. Our Vibe Code to Production service replaces fragile prototype code with typed architecture, authentication and permissions, production database migrations, and scalable cloud hosting. We assess the existing code before deciding what to keep or rebuild.

Do you handle API integrations and cloud deployments?

Yes. Integration Wizardry covers webhooks with automated retries, legacy API wrappers, and data normalization. Deployment Velocity and Cloud covers automated CI/CD, testing checks, containerized releases on AWS or GCP, rollback mechanisms, and live logs.
