Kristopher Cargile

I advise executives, investors, and other stakeholders on how to de-risk product and technology strategies—ensuring the products they build, invest in, or acquire are validated, scalable, and positioned for real growth.

With 30 years of experience as a software engineer, architect, and 8x founder, I’ve developed a unique ability to cut through technical noise and surface what really matters to business outcomes. I work at the intersection of product, technology, and strategy—helping leaders make faster, smarter, and more profitable decisions.

Clients come to me when they need:

✅ Fractional CTO leadership to guide teams and support key decisions.

✅ Product strategy guidance to align roadmaps with market realities.

✅ Technical due diligence on investments, acquisitions, or innovation bets.

✅ Technology assessments to ensure scalability and alignment with growth goals.

I work closely with innovative leadership teams, focusing on high-impact outcomes that drive clarity, confidence, and results.

Over the years, I’ve worked across industries, company sizes, and technology landscapes. I bring a playbook sharpened by successes and hard-learned lessons, designed to help my clients avoid common pitfalls and accelerate their path to impact.

When I’m not working, you’ll find me on a mountain trail, pushing limits as a long-distance runner—always learning, adapting, and embracing the challenge of the next horizon.
