I'm Miles. CTO, Software Engineer and Advisor.
I help entrepreneurs, startups and scale-ups build and deliver modern software products, services and teams.
As Global CTO at Cookpad, I led technology for the Global Platform from zero to 50 million users, internationalising to 30 languages, and built an engineering organisation from the ground up to 80 engineers. I made the first commit to the majestic Rails monolith, and thousands more thereafter, all which still power the world's largest recipe social network.
