I am Alan Williamson. CTO, private equity operating partner, Java Champion, and author of five books, including Think Like a CTO, published by Manning. Two decades in PE-backed businesses taught me one thing.
Most technology problems are leadership problems wearing a hoodie. I have fixed engineering teams, modernized platforms nobody wanted to touch, and made technology make sense to the people signing the checks.
If you run a portfolio company and something is broken, I have probably already fixed it somewhere else. This is where I think out loud about software, AI, cloud, and anything else that earns five minutes of my attention.
