“I don't just write code: I set up the processes, the team and the technical foundations that let a company grow without rebuilding everything every two years.”
Stefano Tassinario
What I work with
I'm Stefano Tassinario, Fractional CTO and software engineer, Naples. Since 2018 I have built and run systems companies use every day: management systems, portals, integrations, apps. I work fractionally: I set the technology strategy, steer the team and suppliers and oversee every phase, without the cost of a full-time hire.
For two years I have been bringing AI agents into the processes of the companies I work with: they do the repetitive work, a person approves.
I'm Stefano Tassinario, Fractional CTO and software engineer. Innovatic is the name I work under. I build and run management systems, web platforms and integrations for companies that work their own way and don't want to bend it to off-the-shelf software. For a couple of years AI agents have been entering these systems too: they read documents, prepare orders and replies, route requests instead of people, with a person who approves.
The oldest project I look after has been in production for five years and has changed shape hundreds of times without being rebuilt from scratch. That's what I'm proudest of: not the new code, but the code that lasts.
I work with at most three companies at a time, to stay really present. On large projects I bring two or three people I have worked with for years. I remain your point of contact: I don't hand you over to an account manager.
I'm also building products of my own. When they're ready you'll find them here.
You tell me how you work today. At the end I tell you whether you need a technical lead, an agent in the process or a piece of software, or none of these. It's not a quote, it's an answer.
I talk to the people who will use the system, not only to whoever signs. You get a picture of systems, team and suppliers, a roadmap proposal and, for a software project, a fixed price.
Technical leadership on a monthly fee you can cancel at the end of any month, or a fixed-price project with a release every two weeks that you test yourself.
Code in your repository, documentation, decisions in writing. If one day you want to change supplier, you can, without rebuilding everything.
Still have doubts? Read the most common questions or write to me directly.
A part-time technical director. Makes the technology decisions, steers the team and suppliers, answers for the results, but costs a fraction of a hired CTO.
No. Every flow has a point where a person approves, corrects or blocks. The agent does the repetitive work; responsibility stays with whoever holds it today.
SMEs and startups with one or more systems in production and nobody in-house acting as technical lead.
A 30-minute call, then two weeks of analysis of systems, team and suppliers. At the end, a picture and a roadmap proposal.
Yes, the hours already done in the month are deducted from the first fee.
Remotely in your channels. In person in and around Naples when needed.
At most 3, to stay really present.
In Italy, between salary and contributions, from 70,000 € a year upwards, plus the risk of hiring the wrong person. Monthly leadership costs €33,600 a year and stops when you want.
The monthly plan can be cancelled at the end of any month, no penalties. A single session commits you to nothing. In both cases everything we wrote and decided stays yours.
Yes, with an hourly session.
