Meet Tobias, Your Fractional CTO in Bangkok

With over 12 years of experience in software and web development, Tobias is a hands-on CTO based in Bangkok, Thailand. His background includes co-founding Brikl — a Southeast Asia-rooted e-commerce platform — where he scaled the engineering team from zero to 70 engineers as CTO.

Now based permanently in Bangkok, Tobias works with founders across Southeast Asia and beyond. He organizes and attends local startup events (including OpenClaw Builders Bangkok), mentors founders on GrowthMentor, and brings deep technical expertise combined with genuine regional context.

Whether you need strategic guidance, architecture decisions, or someone to sit across a table from you at a Bangkok coffee shop — Tobias is available for in-person engagements across Thailand and SEA.

Why a Bangkok-Based CTO Makes a Difference

Remote advisors are fine. But when your CTO is in the same timezone, same city, and the same startup community — the quality of support is different.

In-Person in Bangkok

Available for face-to-face meetings, workshops, and team sessions in Bangkok. No timezone lag, no async delays on critical decisions.

ICT Timezone (UTC+7)

Work in sync with your team across Thailand, Singapore, Vietnam, Indonesia, and the Philippines. Real-time availability across SEA.

SEA Startup Ecosystem

Deep familiarity with the regional market — investors, talent pools, tech stacks preferred in SEA, and the realities of building here.

Strategic Leadership

Turning business goals into clear technical direction — roadmaps, architecture decisions, and cloud migrations for SEA-stage companies.

Team Building

Hiring and structuring engineering teams in Bangkok and across SEA, from your first developer to a team of 20+.

Hands-On Technical Depth

Real coding experience with modern stacks — Next.js, Supabase, Node.js, GraphQL, PostgreSQL, and cloud infrastructure.

Startup Stage Fit

Ideal for pre-seed to Series A companies in Thailand and Southeast Asia, especially non-technical founders making their first tech hires.

Trusted by Founders and Engineering Leaders

First-hand experiences from founders and engineers who benefited from hands-on mentorship, technical clarity, and practical leadership.

Tobias is a phenomenal mentor. He listens and understands where you are, then looks for ways to get you unstuck or to a process of achievement. Highly recommend Tobias for any techie or startup person.

Tobias was very helpful to assist a couple of our engineers with improvements to their technical interview process. I would love to work with Tobias again for further assistance to help me further mentor our engineers and support their growth.
