Background

About Mark Dore

As a seasoned and inspiring technology leader with 20 years of experience, I bring a unique combination of technical expertise, people leadership, and commercial acumen. My strong background in digital consultancy and modern engineering has allowed me to drive both commercial and technical strategies, improve performance, and build scalable, high-performing teams. I’m committed to fostering a people-centric culture and strong engagement with the local community, exemplified by my active role in promoting diversity and inclusion, including delivering the closing keynote at Reframe WiT 2023. I am deeply passionate about client delivery, focusing on fostering a product-first mindset and delivering value early and often to drive genuine business outcomes. I believe in taking a pragmatic approach to leveraging lean, agile, and XP methodologies, adapting the best practices for each situation including using automation (Testing, CI/CD, IaC, DevSecOps) across the SDLC wherever possible. With over 6 years of experience in AWS and Microsoft cloud solutions, I’ve come to rely on the scalability, security, resilience, and cost benefits that make cloud my default choice. Additionally, I see emerging tools such as Gen AI as essential in accelerating productivity and empowering teams to achieve more with less.
