Summary
Gordon Leigh is a Berlin-based digital launch consultant and full-stack product engineer with 11 years' experience building and scaling web and automation platforms. He has founded and led product studios, moved quickly from senior engineer to engineering manager roles, and now helps founders define product strategy, technical architecture and MVP execution while advising on hiring and cloud design. Comfortable jumping into troubled projects, he blends hands-on development with process leadership—creating team rituals and communication channels that measurably improve delivery. His background spans embedded and enterprise domains (C#, WPF, SQL) through modern stacks (React, TypeScript, Go) and cloud automation, reflecting a practical skill for turning complex legacy systems into maintainable, scalable platforms. Unusually, he pairs this commercial practice with postgraduate study in medical devices and advanced engineering, which informs a disciplined, systems-level approach to product safety and reliability.
