About
Andrew Erie · Fort Collins, Colorado
I build the systems—and the clarity behind them.
I'm Andrew Erie, a fractional CTO and AI systems builder with more than 20 years in software, platforms, integration, and technical leadership. I help companies decide what deserves to exist, how it should work, and what it takes to operate it well.
How I work
Technical depth matters. Judgment matters more.
I stay close enough to the work to know what is true, while keeping the business decision—not the technology itself—at the center.

Built across products, platforms, and operating systems.

Beyond the operating room
Games are where I keep experimenting.
I also develop games independently. It is a different kind of systems work: interaction, simulation, world-building, feedback, and the discipline of making complex machinery feel intuitive.
Game development is not a side-hobby footnote. It is another place I practice product judgment and craft: designing rules, testing feedback loops, and turning complex machinery into an experience people can understand.
