product developer

Paul Wheatcroft

I build products from discovery to production — and release records on the side.

I'm a product-focused developer with four years of hands-on engineering, grounded in a decade of IT leadership working with business stakeholders and operational teams. I bring commercial awareness to my work, and I'm comfortable moving between product, design, and code.

I take end-to-end ownership from discovery through to production. Modern tooling, including AI-assisted development, helps me ship clean, value-driven features quickly, but the the user always come first.

My experience in software spans the public sector, health services, and legal tech.

Music

8 Meg Stick Records

Music is a huge part of my life. I have my own independent record label to release my musical projects, working with other artists, and getting tracks out across streaming platforms. The same creative drive that powers everything I do.
