Paul Teale is a seasoned software engineering manager based in London with 8 years of experience and over 7 years leading and scaling engineering teams across energy, media, and consumer products. He combines deep mobile and embedded systems roots—spanning Android, J2ME, custom Linux/Android OS builds, and IoT prototypes—with modern management of cross-functional teams at organisations like Warner Bros. Discovery, OVO and So Energy. Paul has a track record of shipping complex, device-integrated solutions (voice search, gesture sensors, HDMI/content protection, NFC payments) and has moved between hands-on engineering and leadership while retaining strong low-level debugging skills. He excels at bridging product and platform needs, turning experimental research (connected cars, robotics, smart homes) into production features. Colleagues rely on him to tame technical complexity and standardise delivery across fast-moving teams and contracts. Notably, his career began in mobile before smartphones, giving him a rare long-view perspective on mobile ecosystems and backward-compatible design tradeoffs.
