What I do

01

Fractional CTO & engineering leadership

Senior technical direction without a full-time hire. Architecture, roadmaps, hiring, and straight answers on what to build.

02

Checkout & payments consulting

Conversion-critical flows done properly, with checkout and payments experience from JPMorganChase, Bolt and Fast.

03

Custom software development

Web-first, fullstack delivery. Prototype to production, built to be maintained and not just shipped.

04

Team leadership & delivery

I've led British, European and international teams on multi-million pound projects. I can lead yours or level it up.

The person you'd hire, if you could.

I'm Rhys Stewart, a staff-level engineer and engineering leader. I led checkout projects and the UK engineering group at JPMorganChase, directed web at Bolt, and built commerce platforms used by millions. Frontend specialist, fullstack in practice, strong AI capabilities.

11Ten is how you get that experience on your project, without a six-month search.
