Summary
Matt Clark is a values-driven technology leader and principal advisor with 25+ years of hands-on experience and 11 years in senior leadership roles, specialising in cloud-native platforms, data & AI, and large-scale transformation for regulated industries. He has led engineering and customer success teams at Microsoft and built Bankwest’s Cloud Native Platform, pairing strategic advisory with practical delivery to help organisations adopt continuous delivery, compliance and operational cloud systems. His background spans founding a high-throughput SaaS (Ymogen), architecting global CDN and network solutions for major media and finance firms, and directing Pivotal professional services across APJ during critical scaling and IPO preparation. Based in Perth, he combines technical depth—from infrastructure and CI/CD to identity and API management—with commercial acumen and a strong focus on growing customer capability. Not obviously stated: his academic roots in cognitive science and AI underpin a pragmatic curiosity about how people and systems interact, which informs his product- and people-first approach to technical change.
