Most engineers become managers and feel lost fast. Not because they're not smart, but because no one taught them how to lead people, not just systems. I've been there.
25 years scaling teams (Ocado 5→30+, £3.5M AWS savings, 60% Azure cuts). Now advising SaaS founders at Infracodebase.com & Oz Lunara.
I coach two paths:
• Engineering Leaders: EMs/CTOs/senior engineers master technical leadership
• Founders: Fractional COO operations for Series A/B scale-ups (10-50 people)
Who I coach:
• New EMs: Confident 1:1s, not survival mode
• Staff+ engineers: IC vs management decision
• Career pivoters: Land Senior EM/Director roles
• Series A/B Founders: Ops rhythm, cross-team alignment, C-suite delivery
What you get, concrete next steps every session:
• Promotion scripts + tough conversation frameworks
• LinkedIn recruiter magnets
• Fractional COO: OKRs, RACI matrices, etc.
• Operating model + metrics dashboards
I write Leadership as a Verb (newsletter.diamantinoalmeida.com) - engineering culture for 1,700+ leaders weekly.
