Senior🎓
Top SchoolSavvas Nicholas is a seasoned software consultant and technology leader with 11 years’ experience building and scaling distributed teams and production software across fintech, eCommerce, IoT, healthtech and edtech. He has led engineering, product and devops functions as CTO and co-founder, delivering high-traffic platforms (including a webinar platform and a $50M/year payments migration) and end-to-end consultancy on 10+ projects from idea to thousands of users. Savvas combines hands-on implementation—containers on Raspberry Pi for IoT, real-time sensor ingestion with InfluxDB, and clever SQL for live arbitrage detection—with strategic product discovery and risk-led proposals that turned personal use cases into successful products. He’s comfortable hiring and running global teams, migrating legacy stacks to auto-scaling cloud infrastructure, and embedding engineering best practices across organisations. Based in London, he pairs strong academic credentials (MEng UCL, coursework at Georgia Tech) with eclectic outside interests—from cooking and knitting to language-hacking—that often inform pragmatic, user-centered solutions.
