Engineering tomorrow's solutions, today.
Scalable software, data platforms, cloud, and AI, guided by fractional CTO and CPO leadership for growing companies, from the first strategy call to systems running in production.
AI that drives real value
We help you decide where AI is genuinely worth building, and we say so plainly when the answer is not yet. Where it does earn its place, we build it properly: real feasibility work, integration with the systems you already run, and compliance handled from the start.
An AI project needs four perspectives around the table: someone to define the problem, someone who understands the day-to-day work, someone to test the solution, and someone to judge what it is worth.
Read the field note →AI projects involve more uncertainty than traditional software. A phased approach helps reduce risk, validate assumptions early, and avoid investing heavily before there is evidence that a solution will work.
Read the field note →AI has dramatically lowered the cost of building software, but successful projects still depend on good technical decisions, not just good code.

Jinka is a global technology consultancy built by founders. We value collaboration, clear communication, and strong human relationships, and we build practical technology that scales with your business and creates lasting value.
Senior leadership, without the full-time hire
Founders often need a senior technical or product call before they need another full-time exec, so we step in as your fractional CTO, CPO, or CFO: setting direction, making build-versus-buy decisions, mentoring the team, and staying accountable for what ships.
Technical direction, architecture decisions, and engineering hiring, without the overhead of a full-time CTO.
Product roadmap, prioritization, and strategy, led by someone who has shipped real products.
Financial strategy, budgeting, and forecasting, pricing strategy, and go-to-market budgeting, plus fundraising and board support, without a full-time CFO.
Ongoing senior counsel on the calls that matter: architecture, build-versus-buy, and team.

“We came to Jinka with a serious data infrastructure challenge: a HIPAA-compliant data lake, real-time reporting, and API-driven automations all at once. They delivered on all of it. Reports that used to take hours now run instantly, automations have reduced the administrative burden on our team, and we finally have clear visibility into how decisions affect the organization downstream. On top of that, they helped us build out the front and backend of a separate software product entirely. That range says a lot about who they are. Easy recommendation.”
“From first contact to delivery, Jinka was fast, professional, and genuinely invested in finding the right solution. We needed a complex project management tool (Gantt chart) built in Excel to coordinate multiple workstreams across our offshore operations. They understood the requirements quickly and delivered something that works the way we needed it to. If you're considering working with them, don't hesitate.”
“We worked with Dan from Jinka to restructure our database, integrate an API, and sync everything into Snowflake. The project touched AWS, MySQL, and OpenAI and it was a lot to coordinate, but Dan knew the territory and kept things moving. He brought real technical depth without making it complicated for us. Communication was clear throughout, delivery was on time, and the pricing was fair. I would recommend Jinka without hesitation.”
Some companies come to us for their first data pipeline. Some are scaling systems across regions and teams. Some need confidence in what's already running: governance, audits, testing. We meet you where you are.
