Andrew Beacock

Tech Consultant & Fractional CTO

📈 Are you a growth-stage startup or SME struggling to scale?
🤔 Unsure if your platform, tech team, or processes can handle growth?
🤕 Facing platform issues, slow feature delivery, and frustrated developers?
🤖 Have you got AI on your roadmap but don’t know where to start?

I help growth-stage startups and SMEs scale by refining platform architecture, structuring tech teams, and establishing efficient processes. I also help companies get started with AI.

I’m a pragmatic engineering leader, with 30 years of software development experience, the majority of which was building scalable, secure, and reliable web & mobile based services and solutions. I spent a decade building scalable & resilient server-side mobile messaging solutions, and over a decade building secure, fast, scalable web applications for the financial industry. I led the 50-strong development team responsible for Very.co.uk, have been a startup/scaleup CTO twice, worked at an AI consultancy, and now I’m offering my services as an independent technical consultant and fractional CTO.
