About Lunchbox Software
25+ years of building software that performs under pressure.
From FDA-regulated medical devices to automotive systems, entertainment platforms, industrial manufacturing, and SEC-compliant financial software — we've built software in environments where failure isn't an option and the stakes are always high.
Our Background
Built from the inside out
Industry Experience
FDA Submissions
Lunchbox Software was founded by engineers who spent careers inside complex, high-stakes organizations — not consulting from the outside. We've held CTO and VP Engineering roles across medical device companies, health IT platforms, automotive OEMs and suppliers, entertainment technology firms, financial institutions, and industrial manufacturing operations.
That inside experience spans organizations of every scale — from Series A startups to global enterprises including automotive OEMs, major financial institutions, and broadcast networks. We understand the organizational dynamics, the regulatory pressures, and the engineering tradeoffs that only become visible when you're accountable for the outcome.
Our consulting engagements have spanned the full spectrum — from global enterprises like major automotive OEMs, multinational financial institutions, and Fortune 500 corporations, down to early-stage startups, consumer lifestyle platforms, and venture-backed digital businesses finding their footing. The problems are different at each end of that spectrum, but the standard of engineering isn't.
Beyond strategy and architecture, we can assemble and staff complete technology teams — from QA engineers and software developers to IT operations — giving organizations a single point of accountability for building out technical capability from the ground up.
The fractional model lets us bring that depth to organizations that need senior technical leadership without the overhead of a full-time executive hire — whether that's a Series B startup navigating compliance, an enterprise modernizing legacy infrastructure, or a PE firm evaluating a software acquisition.
