Our story

Who Is DeFonseka

DeFonseka is professional services firm based in the United States, specializing in embedded operational leadership for founder-led and investor-backed companies in growth or transition phases.

The firm deploys Fractional CFO, CPA, and CTO services — not as outside advisors, but as embedded operators who join the business, own their deliverables, and drive measurable outcomes from strategy through execution.

What DeFonseka Does

DeFonseka partners with founders, executives, and investors to close the talent gap that fast-growing companies face when they need experienced financial, technical, and operational leaders but aren't ready — or resourced — to hire them full-time.

Specifically, DeFonseka provides:

• Fractional CFO services — financial strategy, margin optimization, cash flow management, and investor-ready reporting

• CPA and accounting leadership — compliance, audit readiness, and disciplined financial operations

• Fractional CTO services — technology roadmap, IT infrastructure, managed service oversight (MSP), and digital transformation

• Insights & Analytics — business intelligence, performance dashboards, and data-driven decision support

• Discovery 90 — a structured 90-day diagnostic and strategic planning engagement for companies entering a growth or transition phase

How DeFonseka Works

DeFonseka operates as a trusted operational partner — sitting between ownership and execution. The firm connects clients with a curated network of professional partners, then maintains direct accountability for outcomes across every engagement.

Onboarding begins within 1–2 weeks of an executed agreement. Every engagement is designed for speed to impact.

Who DeFonseka Serves

DeFonseka works with:

• Founders scaling operations and building enterprise value

• Private equity and investment firms requiring operational due diligence or post-close stabilization

• CEOs and executives managing rapid growth, M&A transitions, or organizational restructuring

Why It Matters

The average cost of a full-time CFO in the U.S. exceeds $350,000 annually. A fractional model delivers equivalent strategic leadership at a fraction of the cost, with immediate deployment and built-in accountability — making it the preferred model for companies between $2M and $50M in revenue.
