Premium architectural surfaces and outdoor furniture platform with product catalogs, project showcases, and showroom experiences across multiple regions.
Aditya Vardhan - Lead Full Stack Developer & Fractional CTO
I lead engineering for premium eCommerce, CMS and DTC platforms - the kind of brands that care about how the product feels as much as how it converts. Five years deep in React.js, Node.js, Next.js and headless CMS, brought in on a part-time or contract basis to ship, unblock, and own the stack.
Capabilities
What I bring to a stack
Frontend-first, but comfortable owning backend, CMS and infrastructure decisions end to end - which is usually what "fractional CTO" actually means in practice.

Portfolio
Platforms I've led engineering for

Sustainable oral care eCommerce platform offering electric toothbrushes, plant-based brush heads, and subscription-based dental care products.
Online restaurant ordering and reservation platform featuring an extensive Japanese and Asian fusion menu, offers, and seamless delivery experience.

Engagement & rates
Straightforward, hourly, no retainers required
Rates scale down with committed daily hours. Pick what fits the workload - we can adjust as the engagement evolves.
Light engagement
Under 10 hours of total work
- Best for audits, code review, or a single focused task
- No daily minimum or recurring commitment
- Billed only for hours actually worked
Part-time CTO
4 hours/day contract
- Steady part-time involvement across the week
- Good fit for ongoing fractional CTO work
- Direct involvement in roadmap and architecture
Full-time embedded
8 hours/day contract
- Lowest rate, for full-day committed engagements
- Functions as an embedded lead developer
- Best for active build phases or crunch periods
Let's talk about your stack
Tell me what you're building or where it's stuck. I'll come prepared to talk specifics - not a sales pitch.
