Jozef Antony Consulting

✔️ I’ve built software development teams from scratch for 10+ companies worldwide
✔️ 3 of my clients’ companies were later acquired by 𝗠𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗮, 𝗠𝗶𝗰𝗿𝗼𝘀𝗼𝗳𝘁, and 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗼𝘁𝗮𝘀𝗸.
✔️ 25+ years of experience in the software development space

Here is a sample breakdown of two projects we have handled:

1:

The client is in the life science industry. We built a software development team from scratch. The software solution helped the company to run and document clinical trials. We acted as an outsourcing partner.

The company was later acquired by Medidata. And later, Medidata was acquired by Dassault Systeme. The team continued to operate and grow to 15-17 developers, testers, DevOps engineers. This partnership lasted for 6 years.

2:

Built a development outsourced team to work on one of the first file-sharing and collaboration platforms in 2005 (like Dropbox or Google Drive). The solution was focused on enterprise customers. They used it for file sharing and backup. It was scaled to 170.000 paying customers. The company was later sold to Autotask and later to Datto.

As an outsourcing partner, we scaled the team to 15-20 developers and testers. Responsible for the application development, testing, hiring developers, and managing day-to-day operations of the development team. We constantly communicate with partners in Denmark and the US. This partnership is still ongoing since its inception in 2005.

👉 4 Main Reasons Why Companies Can’t Build Market-Leading Products:

(𝗜) 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁-𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁 𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗲𝗱: Discovering that you cannot deliver fast enough. Communication friction, misunderstandings, and challenges between engineering, product, and business slow everything down.

(𝗜𝗜) 𝗜𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗦𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗲: Encountering invisible barriers that hinder your business growth, whether they are technological limitations, inefficient processes, or gaps in team expertise.

(𝗜𝗜𝗜) 𝗢𝗯𝘀𝗼𝗹𝗲𝘁𝗲 𝗧𝗲𝗰𝗵𝗻𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗴𝘆: Revamping your technology or product features to stay relevant may require significant resources and time. Focusing on business value helps you navigate these issues easier and faster.

(𝗜𝗩) 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁 𝗙𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗼𝗿 𝗗𝗼𝘄𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲: The alarming possibility that product failures impact not just your customers' operations but also your hard-earned reputation.

Addressing these challenges requires more than just hard work and determination. 

As a Fractional CTO and Product Growth Partner - I help companies to:

✅ Focus on company objectives and align your teams with your big goals - building the wrong thing fast doesn’t bring any value. Focusing on business value constantly is the priority.

✅ Accelerate delivery without compromising quality - the common myth is that this cannot be accomplished; the opposite is true.

✅ Honest communication, even if (especially if) the news is not good. The dynamic business environment needs constant adjustment. Keeping the communication flow open ensures the project focuses on the business value.

✅ Establish a practical timeline through effective project management - mismanagement is a primary cause of software project failures. Keeping all parties in sync, especially key stakeholders, is crucial.

👇️ Building Data Systems for Startups & Innovative Businesses | Entrepreneurial Engineer | Product | Data | Consulting

𝐀 $𝟑𝟏𝟕𝐌 𝐞𝐱𝐢𝐭. That's the result of working hard at a 𝗬 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗯𝗶𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿 startup from Seed to Post-Series C as a Software Engineer & Data Scientist. Then I took another unusual path👇️

𝐈 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐚 𝐨𝐧𝐞-𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐛𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐧𝐨 𝐛𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞.

I didn't have any clients when I quit my day job. Over 6 years later, I earned more than when I was employed, and I became a self-made millionaire.

I cannot believe it because I only had $3,000 in the bank and student debt when I immigrated to the USA more than 20 years ago.

How did I make my money? It's not from the stock option.

𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐈 𝐬𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐝 𝐦𝐲 𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 𝐚𝐬 𝐚𝐧 𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐫 𝐢𝐧 𝟔 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬:

1. I started as a consultant because there is no overhead. Just my brain.
2. I found common problems among my clients and prescribed a solution for future clients.
3. I coded software to automate the service so I deliver value at my sleep. I called it "technology-leveraged service (TLS)."
4. I diversified the income through advisory, contract, and TLS.

𝐒𝐢𝐱 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫, 𝐢𝐭'𝐬 𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐚 𝐨𝐧𝐞-𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐛𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬. 𝐈𝐭'𝐬 𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭 𝐛𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞:

✔️ I manage machines (code), not people. My little kids think Dad is always available for them because the robots (software) are working to get things done.
✔️ Naval Ravikant said, "Code and media are permissionless leverage. They're the leverage behind the newly rich. You can create software and media that works for you while you sleep."
✔️ Marshall McLuhan said that media is "The Extensions of Man." Leverage it.

𝐍𝐨𝐰, 𝐈'𝐦 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐦𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐚 𝐭𝐨 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐦𝐲 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡.

My journey continues.
And I'd like to make it OUR journey.
So, I created an online community called OmniCreator.

𝗢𝗺𝗻𝗶𝗖𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿 https://omnicreator.club helps you to
- Become a Trusted Professional on LinkedIn
with the best content manager and creator community

LinkedIn has been a powerful source of network and business for me. So, I coded OmniCreator using my product design and coding knowledge from the startup experience.

Me and my entrepreneurial friends came to OmniCreator for its powerful content management tool, and they stayed because of the community of kindness.

OmniCreator is a representation of how we work and live. I hope you join us.

I'll promise to keep on sharing helpful insights as an 𝐄𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐫.

𝐒𝐨, 𝐟𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐰 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐲 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐝.

Thanks for reading!
