About Selbytech
David Selby – Fractional CTO & Technology Leader
I am a senior technology leader with more than 15 years of experience including director and vice president–level roles across global enterprises, startups, and high-growth SaaS companies. I specialize in aligning technology strategy with business goals and helping organizations scale securely and effectively.
I hold a Chemical Engineering degree from the University of Waterloo, am a licensed Professional Engineer (P.Eng.), and earned an MBA from CTO Academy’s Digital MBA for Technology Leaders program.
I help technology-driven organizations bridge the gap between vision and execution by bringing seasoned technology leadership, strategic clarity, and operational discipline — without the cost of a full-time executive.
What I do
I partner with founders, CEOs, and executive teams to:
- Define technology strategy that supports business growth
- Build scalable IT and SaaS infrastructures
- Improve engineering velocity and operational maturity
- Strengthen security, compliance, and governance
- Guide technology decision-making through clarity and execution focus
Whether a company is transitioning from early product–market fit, preparing for fundraising, or overcoming scaling challenges, I work as a trusted leader who gets things done.
Selbytech is a registered company in Harris County, Texas.
