Working with Wavect in Linz

The City of Linz describes its economic transition as “from steel to digital”: established industry, startups, research, and digital companies working in the same region. That makes Linz different from a generic SaaS landing page.

When software touches machines, production data, legacy systems, or physical operations, architecture decisions carry operational consequences. The job is not to add another tool. It is to decide where ownership sits, how systems fail safely, and which interfaces must remain maintainable after the first vendor leaves.

That is the CTO layer we provide. We do not claim a Linz office or automatic industry knowledge. We start with your system, your operators, and the constraints already on the floor.

// LOCAL FIT

Two Linz situations where fractional technical leadership fits

The shared problem is a digital product with consequences outside the browser.

Software now touches operations or machines

A connected product, data platform, internal tool, or customer portal depends on physical systems and legacy interfaces. Someone must own reliability, security, integration, and the cost of change.

An established company has several technology suppliers

Each vendor owns its package, but nobody owns the total system or handover. We create the architecture and decision layer above the contracts.
// FIRST 30 DAYS

The first 30 days on a Linz industrial software engagement

Before changing the stack, we map how software failure reaches the operation.

  1. Trace systems and operational dependencies
    Map machines, data flows, integrations, vendors, access, failure modes, and the people who currently keep the system alive.
  2. Prioritize production risk
    Separate real operational and security risk from architecture preferences and vendor sales pressure.
  3. Create a delivery ownership model
    Set interface owners, acceptance evidence, release gates, incident paths, and a handover requirement for every supplier.
// ROLE CHECK

For Linz products, who owns what?

The Fractional CTO owns architecture, engineering, suppliers, and production. The Fractional CPO Linz owns customer problems, prioritization, and the product roadmap. Use a Fractional CTPO when the physical and digital product decisions need one owner.

Role and region navigation

Fractional CTO Linz: local questions

For software that cannot ignore the operation around it.

When seeing the process, machine boundary, or supplier interface changes the technical decision, yes. We scope that visit as a paid on-site add-on. Routine reviews, decision logs, and delivery leadership remain remote.
No. We provide product-engineering leadership and system-level accountability. Internal IT, operations, automation engineers, and suppliers keep their domain ownership. We make the boundaries and decisions explicit.
