Hi, I'm Mark!

I've been working in software and product development since 2005 - as Engineer, Tech Lead, Coach, VP of Engineering and CTO.

I like to work close to the product, bridging the gaps between technical and non-technical and helping businesses to solve product problems, not just technical ones. In recent times I've operated exclusively in the startup space and have been through 2 successful exits in the last 5 years.

I have a passion for helping people grow. I spent a year as a full-time coach at a London-based bootcamp in order to hone my coaching skills, and I spend several hours a week coaching technical sessions on subjects like Leadership and API Design via Skiller Whale.

I can draw on technical skills from the across the stack - BE, FE, Mobile, Database and Cloud - and experience managing and leading in a variety of different environments.

I coach:

⭐Engineers
⭐Technical Leads
⭐First-time CTOs
⭐Start-up/scale-up founders and entrpreneurs

My coaching style is flexible - I will work with you to understand your needs. Whether you want regular calls, irregular messaging, occasional assignments or just informal feedback, I'll put together a plan that works for you. I have time set aside in my diary every week to work with mentees.

If you're keen to explore the possibilities, then let's talk! Schedule a free call to discuss your needs and help build a plan that works for you.
