Simon Hibbard is a experienced technology lead with 14 years building and modernising large-scale public-facing software, currently driving development at NHS Blood and Transplant. He led the end-to-end redevelopment of the NHS GiveBlood App and Donor Web Portal, migrating legacy systems to a headless architecture, microservice backend, CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure-as-code to improve robustness and time-to-market for millions of users. Comfortable making critical architectural and tooling decisions, he combines hands-on technical direction with recruiting and line management to foster a collaborative, no-blame engineering culture. He routinely horizon-scans emerging technologies to introduce pragmatic improvements and ties technical choices to organisational strategy and measurable operational gains. An even-keel senior manager, he balances risk evaluation with delivery-focused innovation to produce scalable, efficient healthcare software.
