Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJoseph Foulds is an engineering director and founder with 10+ years building high-performance distributed systems and product-led businesses from London. He has led low-latency trading infrastructure and global expansion efforts as Head of Engineering at Smarkets, then scaled multi-team, cross-border engineering functions and business-facing delivery at Checkout.com. Earlier-stage wins include founding and exiting ListenOnRepeat, where he combined product, ad-tech and algorithmic recommendation engineering to drive sustained revenue growth. Comfortable from C++/Erlang core systems to cloud-native services and ad-tech pipelines, he pairs hands-on technical depth with strategic planning (OKRs, resourcing and RFPs). Not obvious from titles: he repeatedly moves between founding roles and senior enterprise leadership, bringing an operator-founder mindset to large-scale engineering problems.
