Shalom Katzen
Fractional CIO & AI Implementation Consultant

Senior tech leadership.
AI that actually sticks.

I help growing businesses adopt AI tools and build the operational infrastructure to make them stick — from first prompt to organisation-wide rollout.

Two ways I can help

Senior technology leadership and hands-on AI implementation — available without a full-time hire.

Fractional CIO

Strategic IT leadership, on demand.

Companies that need a senior technology voice in the room — without the cost of a full-time executive. I step in as your CIO, align technology with business goals, and build the foundations for scale.

  • IT strategy & roadmapping
  • Vendor selection & contract negotiation
  • Team structure & hiring
  • Security posture & risk management
  • Digital transformation leadership

AI Implementation Consultant

From concept to daily use.

I take generative AI out of the pilot phase and into real workflows. That means finding where AI creates genuine leverage, building the tools and processes around it, and getting your team confident using it every day.

  • Identifying automation opportunities
  • Custom prompt libraries & workflows
  • AI tool integration into existing systems
  • Team training & change management
  • Organisation-wide rollout planning

Practical, not theoretical

I focus on outcomes that show up in your operations — not slide decks that gather dust.

1

Understand

I start by mapping your current operations, tech stack, and where the real friction lives — before recommending anything.

2

Build

I design and implement the strategy, tools, or workflows — hands-on, not delegated — so things actually get done.

3

Embed

I make sure your team can own and sustain what we've built, so the value outlasts the engagement.
