What I Do How It Works About Start a Conversation

Virtual CIO & Cybersecurity Advisor · Singapore

Most SMEs don't need a full-time CIO.
They need clearer thinking.

I work with founders and MDs in Singapore as a Virtual CIO — helping them make better technology decisions, manage vendors properly, and build an IT foundation that holds up as the business grows.

Best first step IT & Cyber Maturity Assessment

A clear view of your risks and what to prioritise first.

How I work Strategy first. Execution follows.

Advisory-led. Implementation via CSI Tech or your existing provider.

Is this you?

You're running a growing business.
But no one is steering the IT.

If any of this sounds familiar, you're not alone — and you don't need to hire a full-time CIO to fix it.

You are relying on a vendor who fixes things when they break, but no one is thinking about where your IT should be in 12 months.

You worry about ransomware, downtime, or data loss — but you do not know how exposed the business really is.

Your team is growing and the patchwork of tools, logins, and workarounds that got you here will not scale to the next stage.

You are making expensive IT decisions without an independent advisor to challenge the wrong ones.

What I do

Advisory-led. Outcome-focused.

I work at the strategic layer — helping leadership make better decisions, not managing helpdesk queues.

IT Roadmap & Strategy

A prioritised plan that aligns your technology with your business goals — no jargon, no unnecessary spending.

Cybersecurity Posture

Practical risk assessment, policy frameworks, and incident preparedness designed for your size and sector.

Vendor Oversight & Control

Independent review of your current vendors, contracts, and service levels — so you know what you are actually paying for.

Leadership Clarity

Leadership-ready reporting and plain-English guidance that gives your team confidence in every IT decision.

How we work together

Three steps. No complexity.

A clear, repeatable process from first conversation to long-term advisory.

Step 01

Discover & Assess

A focused conversation to understand your business, followed by a thorough review of your current IT environment, security posture, and risk gaps.

Step 02

Guide & Govern

I help guide execution — advising on decisions, aligning priorities, and holding vendors accountable as the roadmap moves forward.

Step 03

Review & Improve

Regular check-ins to assess progress, adapt to changes, and ensure your technology continues to support the business as it grows.

About Jason

One advisor. Direct access.
No layers in between.

I started CSI Tech in 2023 after 15 years working across IT solution selling, presales, infrastructure, and executive advisory. I've worked with companies navigating compliance requirements, scaling infrastructure, and building real resilience against cyber risk.

My background spans both the technical and the business-facing side of IT. That means I can sit between your leadership team, your vendors, and your technical environment — translating what matters without the jargon, and making sure the right decisions get made.

This advisory practice runs alongside CSI Tech's managed IT services. The two are connected but distinct: the advisory lens comes first, and any commercial relationship is always disclosed upfront.

Frequently asked

  • Do you also run an IT company?Yes. I lead CSI Tech, a managed IT provider for Singapore SMEs. This advisory practice exists so founders and MDs can access strategic guidance independently. Any CSI Tech commercial relationship is disclosed upfront.
  • Do I have to use CSI Tech for implementation?No. Clients can use their existing provider, an internal team, or CSI Tech — whichever fits best.
  • Where do most clients start?With the IT & Cyber Maturity Assessment. It gives you a clear picture before committing to anything ongoing.
