Strategic Operating Partner & AI Advisor

Darcy Reno

I work with founders and boards when they need an experienced outside perspective on their technology organization — whether that's validating a strategy, navigating a transition, or bringing clarity to complex technical decisions.

I've been Portfolio CTO across 14 business units at Constellation Software, prepared software businesses for acquisition multiple times, and consistently improved the relationship between engineering investment and business outcomes. I understand what good looks like at different stages of growth, and I help leadership teams get there.

My focus is at the strategic level — buy-vs-build decisions, platform assessment, and giving boards and founders a clear picture of where they stand and what's possible.

On AI

The most effective AI strategies focus on creating value for customers by accelerating time to market and fundamentally changing the unit economics of building software. Value creation builds retention and delivers both top-line and bottom-line outcomes. I help leadership teams find and execute on those opportunities.
