Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolKent Mcneill is a seasoned technology leader and Chief Technology Officer with more than two decades of experience delivering enterprise-scale software, global IT operations, and advanced data analytics across startups and large public companies. He has built and scaled technology organisations from the ground up—most notably establishing and leading Bridge International Academies’ global tech group to support education delivery in ultra low-infrastructure environments. Kent blends hands-on architecture (microservices, CQRS, cloud) and continuous delivery with lean product management to drive measurable business outcomes like fraud detection and predictive analytics from 100M+ annual data points. He is skilled at organisational change and capacity building, reorganising teams for responsiveness and creating build-vs-buy frameworks to reduce waste. Unusually for a CTO, Kent pairs deep delivery obsession with practical field-level concerns—device lifecycle, firmware, and last-mile connectivity—ensuring technology works where infrastructure is weakest. Based in Amsterdam, he combines global execution experience with a pragmatic, metrics-driven approach to innovation.
