Summary
Findlay Yeates is a seasoned technology leader and entrepreneur with 13 years of experience building cloud-native platforms and data-driven products across fintech, marketing tech, and gaming. As former Director of Platform Engineering at Zepz he scaled platform capabilities, multi-cloud strategy (GCP/AWS/Azure) and CI/CD for three global brands, while mentoring a team-of-teams and running OKR-driven delivery. He now leads Virtuverse as technical CEO, blending deep systems and algorithmic expertise with game-economy design to ship a class‑less, action-driven MMO with an integrated player economy. Earlier roles as CTO and senior engineer at iotec sharpened his machine‑learning and intent‑tracking chops, giving him a rare mix of infrastructure, automation, big data and product-focused ML experience. A mathematics graduate from the University of Exeter, he’s as comfortable defining cloud architecture and KPIs as he is designing immersive gameplay economies—often bridging product and engineering in founder-led initiatives.
