Summary

Senior🎓
Top SchoolRichard Woollcott is a seasoned CTO and software engineer with over two decades of hands-on experience designing and delivering backend, mobile, desktop and embedded systems across sectors including defence, payments, fintech and utilities. He has operated as an independent contractor since 2001, leading greenfield mobile and API projects—from .NET MAUI and Xamarin apps for government inspection and retail kiosks to Kotlin Multiplatform and Ktor-based server backends for Web3-enabled social platforms. Comfortable across C#, Kotlin and C++, he combines pragmatic architecture, DevOps automation and secure API design (Keycloak, Docker, Azure/AWS pipelines) to ship production-grade solutions. He’s known for creating reusable frameworks and SDKs (for example the Certify Consumer SDK) and for pragmatic application of patterns and reactive architectures to improve quality and testability. Richard’s background in embedded and real-time systems gives him an unusual depth when bridging hardware integrations (quantum ink scanners, payment terminals) with modern cloud-native services. Based in the UK, he also shares expertise through Xamarin-focused blogging and public code samples on GitHub.
