Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAndrew Jocelyn is a seasoned technical director and two-time co-founder with over 30 years building resilient, user-focused SaaS for the education sector. He architected and scaled SchoolPost from a bespoke college messaging tool into a widely adopted platform integrated with MIS/SIS systems across the UK and internationally, guiding successful acquisitions by Firefly and Veracross. Technically hands-on, he combines deep expertise in C#, .NET, SQL, front-end stacks and Azure cloud infrastructure with a pragmatic, maintainability-first engineering philosophy. An advocate of Rust’s compiler-driven discipline, he applies its mindset to improve code quality and operational reliability even when working in other languages. Based in Cambridge, he balances product-led thinking with day-to-day architectural ownership, mentoring teams to deliver secure, scalable communication services for schools. He’s particularly skilled at turning real-world educational workflows into auditable, automatable software that reduces administrative friction.
