Chris Morgan Email and Phone Number
As a highly experienced engineering leader with over 20 years of experience in the financial, energy, health, law enforcement and government sectors, I am confident in my ability to drive technical excellence and lead high-performing teams. My expertise lies in a deep-rooted knowledge of the Microsoft development stack, x86 and RISC systems architecture engineering, as well as periods deep diving into key technologies e.g. virtualisation, storage and networking, supplemented in more recent years with a focus on a modern stack of cloud first (primarily AWS and some Azure) and hybrid.I am a keen problem solver and have a proven track record of delivering innovative solutions that drive business success. Throughout my career, I have led cross-functional teams in complex projects, managed budgets, and developed strategies to ensure optimal performance and efficiency. As a Director of Engineering, I am committed to fostering a culture of innovation, collaboration, and continuous improvement to deliver cutting-edge products and services based on an Agile ethos.I am an accomplished communicator, able to converse at the lowest technical level whilst being capable of using analogies and explanations to convey complex technicalities to a wide audience up to C-suite level. I thrive in environments where I can inspire others to bring forward solutions to complex problems, making it clear that I want to employ people that want to take pride in their work, to innovate and create something greater than what I alone can envision. I would struggle in a setup where developers are treated like code monkeys following a straight path to a set destination. This to me is the true ethos of Agile, where if you are not constantly trying new things and feeling safe to fail, you are not truly Agile, you’re just going through the motions (ceremonies).
