So far I have developed a new strategic vision for the company and built a new client base for their unique positioning products. Key clients include, Sustrans, the University of Glasgow, Cisco, and the European Space agency. To achieve this I initiated a company wide rebranding, and sales strategy.Over this period I have also lead the productisation of the company’s technology, including Oxygen - a big-data crowdsourcing platform, Pitchstone - a unique outdoor positioning system for IoT devices, and Sillstone - an indoor positioning technology for mobile devices.

  • Glasgow City Council
    Lead Architect
    Glasgow City Council Feb 2013 - Jun 2014

    I led the innovation programme in the TSB’s £24million Future City Demonstrator in Glasgow. I directly managed £2.7 million and advised on a further £8million and regularly presented to senior stakeholders including executive board members. During this programme, I promoted modern software development and design approaches. This has significantly contributed to moving the organisation from a traditional waterfall based delivery model to a more iterative and agile, user-centred approach.Day-to-day I led an interdisciplinary team of 15 people internally whilst also procuring the external services of several SMEs. This diverse team include mobile developers, web developers, business analysts, data analysts, graphic designers, and service designers. During this programme my team delivered 3 mobile applications, the MyGlasgow app–an app for location- based incident reporting (e.g. dog fouling, lighting faults, and potholes), the Glasgow Cycling app and the Glasgow Walking app–both of which were designed to promote active travel and the exploration of the city.The team also delivered a new open data strategy and platform, a web-based dashboard framework, and a series of engagement events that pushed Glasgow to the forefront of the SMART City agenda throughout the UK. The technologies built upon include, CKAN, Apache, PostgreSQL, PostGIS, MySQL, Solr, Wordpress, Leaflet, Azure, Hadoop, and Spark. The programme also promoted the extensive use of open standards including, GeoJSON, 5-Star Open Data, and RDF.I also drove the most modern software development methodologies by developing stories through a series of short sprints using Scrum and Kanban.

I successfully led the organisation through a major change in business model from app sales to data sales securing $500,000 of new revenue through the relationships built with Broadcom.Other iOS products include SBI–an app specifically designed for the delivery of executive leadership content for the Centre for Creative Leadership’s programme on constructive feedback using their Situation, Behaviour, Impact (SBI) model, Rangers Football Club–this was the second ever football app in the store after Arsenal and delivered fixtures, live scores, squad lists, and Rangers TV.
