# Services — Nat Thompson

> Senior technical leadership, tailored to where you are right now.

## Fractional CTO

Need a technical leader but not ready for a full-time hire? I embed with your team part-time to help with architecture decisions, team building, and technical strategy.

- Architecture reviews and technical roadmaps
- Engineering team mentorship
- Vendor and technology evaluation
- Board and investor-ready technical due diligence

**Pricing:** $2,500/month retainer (typically 10–15 hours/week available, flexible engagement).

## AWS Consulting

Get your AWS infrastructure right the first time — or fix what's already there.

- Cloud architecture design
- Cost optimization audits
- Migration planning and execution
- Security and compliance reviews

**Pricing:** $249/hr for one-hour deep dives; free 15-min intro consult available. Larger engagements priced by scope.

## Replace My SaaS

Pick the SaaS tool in your business that annoys you most — overpriced, missing features, or just doesn't fit how you work. I'll build a custom replacement, deployed to your own AWS account, in one week. Flat fee. You own the code forever. If it doesn't do what you need by Friday, you don't pay.

- Most replacements run **$2,500–$7,500** (often less than 2 years of the SaaS)
- Deployed to *your* AWS account — no vendor lock-in
- Typical AWS run cost: pennies to a few dollars a month
- 90-second intake form — get a free 5-minute video back, no call
