Who I am
Timothy Ng, founder of Scryla.
I have spent my career in the operating seats of technology businesses, primarily as a Chief Technology Officer and also as a Chief Operating Officer. I founded Scryla over fifteen years ago and have run it since.
That means when I sit down with a founder, I am not reading the situation from the outside. I have carried a payroll, argued with a board, missed a deadline, and had to decide what to cut. It is why my advice tends to be specific rather than general.

How I work with people
Plain, direct and on your side
I tell you what I actually think
Including when the answer is that you do not need me, or that the problem is not the one you think it is.
I do not sell you a build
I have no development team to keep busy and no supplier referrals to protect, so the advice has nothing attached to it.
I write things down
A conversation is useful. A written report your board and your development team can both read is more useful.
