HAROTO is led by Vangelis (CTO & Founding Engineer at Doctoranytime). We operate lean and senior-led, bringing trusted specialists when needed.

Our philosophy

Execution > hype

Ship real solutions, not demos and presentations.

Systems > hacks

Build sustainable processes, not one-off fixes.

Adoption > demos

Success is measured by what teams actually use.

Measurable impact > vibes

Track outcomes with real metrics, not feelings.

Vangelis

Principal Consultant

CTO & Founding engineer at Doctoranytime

Engineering background with deep involvement in product strategy and growth execution. I've led teams through the scaling challenges—delivery velocity, reliability, platform evolution, and cross-functional alignment.

Hands-on when needed, strategic when it matters. I can advise at the exec level and still go deep with engineers on architecture or code. Strong bias for pragmatic solutions, measurable outcomes, and shipping.

Operator, not slideware.

What I optimize for

Speed over perfection

Ship, learn, iterate. Perfectionism is expensive. Progress compounds.

Clarity over consensus

Make the call. Communicate the why. Course-correct when wrong.

Reliability over heroics

Systems that work > individuals who save the day. Build for sustainability.

Outcomes over activity

Busy doesn't mean productive. Measure what matters. Kill what doesn't.

Teams over output

Sustainable pace wins. Happy teams build better products—and stick around to improve them.

Good fit

  • You need senior technical leadership but not a full-time exec
  • Your team ships but it's painful—lots of firefighting, unclear priorities
  • You're scaling and the old ways aren't working anymore
  • You want honest feedback, not validation

Not the right fit

  • You need a dev shop to build your product from scratch
  • You're looking for someone to write code full-time
  • You want someone who'll tell you what you want to hear
  • You need deep security penetration testing
