Top SchoolHayden Eskriett is a Senior Principal Engineer with 11 years’ experience building and leading engineering teams at Netcraft to protect organisations from cybercrime. He has driven core services from conception to production—including Netcraft’s public reporting service, spam processing system, and malware analysis pipeline—helping secure multi-million ARR contracts and support for governments and Fortune 100 customers. Technically versatile, he spans backend development (Go, Python, Perl), databases, cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, DigitalOcean), and DevOps tooling like Kubernetes, Terraform and GitLab CI. As a hands-on leader he combines recruiting and coaching with technical due diligence experience from Netcraft’s acquisition and regular penetration testing. Based in Chippenham with an MEng in Computer Science from the University of Southampton, he’s known for standardising engineering practices and shipping resilient, security-focused infrastructure. Less obvious: he progressed internally from intern to senior principal, reflecting deep institutional knowledge and long-term delivery impact.
