Chris Bowers is a pragmatic technology leader and software engineer with a decade of experience building products and modernising delivery practices across banking and consumer TV platforms. Currently CTO at Fleet Mortgages, he oversees Technology, Data, Projects and IT while bringing hands-on engineering sensibilities honed at Starling Bank and earlier Android leadership roles. He has a strong track record of driving CI/CD, containerised pipelines, and release automation to give teams greater autonomy and faster, safer deployments. His background ranges from mobile engineering and open-source Android libraries to designing fraud risk assessment methods and cross-cutting backend systems. Trained at Imperial College London, he blends practical ethics—“doing the right thing” with pragmatic trade-offs—with a knack for turning operational pain points into repeatable templates. Colleagues describe him as a builder who moves smoothly between coding, coaching and scaling engineering practices.
