Comment on Ask HN: What Is a CTO Org?

Comments

Some orgs have an "office of the CTO" where they put technical experts and advisors that guide larger technology orgs. I have seen this work really well, and really poorly, it just depends on the company and how the CTO function is viewed.

Most of the time you will have strategy work, feasibility, prototyping and larger organizational type of things come out of this role.

That's how our company does it too. That group tend to build the pipelines, build the tools, and publish patterns for the rest of the teams to use.
