Sergio Pereira

About Me

Entrepreneur & Fractional CTO

Hi, I'm Sergio Pereira. I've been building technology for 20 years, and I've worked as a Startup CTO for the last 10 years.

I love to build tech products from scratch, onboard the first clients, get to product-market-fit, hire the first engineers, and grow product, team and processes from there towards scale.

That's what I've been doing as a Startup CTO for the last 10 years, and recently I've been doing it as a Fractional CTO, working with ambitious non-technical Founders to help them succeed.

Whenever I have some spare time, I'm building my own SaaS products to keep learning about new technologies and to walk-the-walk in bringing them to market and growing that MRR.

I love to write, and you can find me on Twitter and Linkedin every day. If you're passionate about remote work and the job market I also write a weekly newsletter. Occasionally you may find me speaking at tech conferences too.

Services

Fractional CTO

I love Startups, and I love to work with Founders to transform their promising business idea into a shipped product, and then grow from a nimble operation into a company ready for scale.

I've been a Startup CTO for 10 years, twice as a co-Founder. And I've helped over 20 non-technical Founders avoid common pitfalls that would hinder their startup ambitions.

SaaS Builder

I'm often hands down building my own SaaS products. This is how I keep my skills sharp, and how I learn new technologies

It's also great to take my own products from 0 to 1, and to grow them within a short time frame.

These are my latest products:

Content Creator

I'm writing daily on Twitter and Linkedin about Technology, Startups, Remote Work and the intersection of those.

I'm passionate about Remote Work, and I publish my Remote Work Newsletter every Friday. I also host my private Slack community of remote job seekers, the Remote Jobs Braintrust. And I've published my flagship course Mastering Remote Work, with over 1000 students so far.
