# Oshri Cohen, AI-Native Chief Product & Technology Officer > Oshri Cohen is an AI-Native Chief Product & Technology Officer with 25 years in software (20 in technology leadership) who works as a fractional and interim CTO. Since 2018 he has served 30+ companies, at one point directing 12 engineering teams across 7 countries. He comes in to solve hard problems fast: building AI-native engineering and product organizations, turning around troubled software, leading technical due diligence for private-equity deals, and modernizing legacy systems. He works directly with his clients, hands-on as a changemaker from the inside out, and stays until the problem is solved. He is based in Canada and serves companies across the USA, working remotely on Eastern Time. ## What he does - Fractional CTO: An AI-native fractional CTO who comes in, solves the hard technology problem, and builds the engineering and product team to carry it, hands-on, until it's done. - Interim CTO: Full-time technology leadership in the seat, temporarily, to cover a sudden gap or carry a company through a transition until the permanent hire is in place. - Short-Term CTO: A short-term CTO who takes over the technology function for a stretch measured in months, carries the company through a gap, a deadline or a transition, and hands off clean. The same role people also call a temporary or interim CTO. - Temporary CTO: A temporary CTO who runs technology full-time for a set period, covers a leadership gap or carries a company through a transition, then hands off cleanly. The same role people also call an interim CTO. - AI Strategy Consulting: AI strategy consulting from a hands-on fractional AI CTO: an AI roadmap tied to the P&L, the architecture and economics behind it, and the leadership to ship it into production. - AI-Native Development & Operations Leader: Executive who helps companies become genuinely AI-native, rebuilding how products are built and how the organization runs so AI is the default, not an add-on. - Turnaround CTO for PE-Acquired Companies: Interim and turnaround CTO for private-equity portfolio companies, stabilizing engineering, de-risking the asset, and protecting the value of the thesis in 90 days. - Technical Due Diligence: Pre-deal technical due diligence and post-acquisition turnaround for private equity, a clear read on code, architecture, team and risk, then an AI-native value-creation plan. - Technical Recruitment: CTO-led technical recruitment for the AI coding era. I design the engineering org, vet every candidate myself, and deliver a team that works — not a stack of resumes. ## Published pricing - Fractional CTO — The Diagnostic: From $20,000 (Fixed · 2–4 weeks · yours to keep) - Fractional CTO — Advisory: $10,000 / mo (~1 day a week) - Fractional CTO — Fractional CTO: $18,000 / mo (~2 days a week) - Fractional CTO — Embedded / Interim CTO: $30,000 / mo (3+ days a week) - AI Strategy Consulting — The Diagnostic: From $20,000 (Fixed · 2–4 weeks · yours to keep) - AI Strategy Consulting — AI-Native Roadmap & Architecture Sprint: From $35,000 (Fixed scope · 4–6 weeks) - AI Strategy Consulting — Fractional AI CTO: $18,000 / mo (~2 days a week) - Technical Recruitment — The Team Build: 30% of first-year salary (Per hire · end-to-end) - Technical Recruitment — Embedded Hiring Partner: 30% of first-year salary (Per hire · inside your process) ## Not a fit for If you're a non-technical founder looking for someone to cheaply finish a no-code prototype, I'm not your person.
