Choose the right perspective
Match the person's full-time leadership roles to your stage and product, for example someone who has led engineering at a scaling software company if you are growing a team, or someone focused on early product builds if you are pre-launch. Ask how many clients they serve at once and how the engagement is scoped, since fractional arrangements differ a lot in hours and responsibilities.
