Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDan Taylor is a Director of Engineering with 10+ years leading large-scale data and engineering organisations across energy, travel and consumer tech, currently responsible for Software, Infrastructure, Data and Delivery at Arenko where he helps digitise the grid. He has repeatedly grown teams from small to 30–50+ engineers and data scientists, built high-throughput data platforms (ingesting billions of rows daily) and shipped ML-driven products and algorithmic trading/control systems for grid-scale batteries. A pragmatic agile advocate, he combines hands-on technical fluency in big data, cloud and real‑time systems with a track record of structuring teams and delivering measurable business value. Comfortable translating research-grade ML into production, Dan also emphasises culture, mentorship and outcomes over process. Less obvious: he’s as happy “crushing it in a garage” as he is presenting at executive level, bridging detailed engineering work and strategic leadership.
