    I’ve helped companies scale e-commerce projects from $0 to $1M+/month, partnered with big-tech companies like Microsoft to eliminate $1.5M+ of unnecessary technical costs, and slashed product release times by more than 50x for multi-national businesses – all through the pragmatic use of AI, Automation, Process Optimisation, and Engineering. 💸 Some highlights👇 ► As a lead consultant, I spearheaded the engineering team for Specsavers ($5B+ org) to scale a key e-commerce product line from $0 to $1M+ monthly (across multiple countries and languages) ► In partnership with Microsoft, I unlocked over $210,000 of annual savings via workflow automation, cloud infrastructure optimisation and streamlined development processes. These same methods were then applied to a second department to achieve over another $290,000 of annual savings. ► I designed and automated the entire disaster recovery plan for TPP ($1B MedTech Unicorn) and successfully demonstrated this by safely migrating over 50M+ patient records. ► I transformed tech recruitment processes and successfully landed over 30 extremely sought-after graduates from Oxford and Cambridge through data-driven marketing and refined candidate experiences (some of the most in-demand graduates in the world!) ► At BJSS, a Forbes-ranked global tech consultancy, I built non-invasive feedback systems that guided major improvements in team structure, communication protocols, and workflow tooling, boosting engineer satisfaction by over 55% in just 3 months. ► I was awarded the Sir Francis Goldsmid Scholarship for outstanding academic achievement at Cambridge University (Information and Computer Engineering) And finally, whilst I’m obviously passionate about AI, Automation and Technical Innovation, I think it’s extremely important to apply a human-centred mindset to my analysis, interactions and solutions at all times - it just leads to much greater outcomes! If you think I can help, I'd love to hear from you. Luke 😎
