Summary
Steve Mayne is a seasoned technology leader and VP of Engineering with 14+ years of experience building scalable, secure systems and leading cross-functional engineering teams from startup to scale. Currently serving as CTO at DocComs and VP of Engineering at Yonda, he blends hands-on full‑stack development with platform engineering, Azure DevOps automation, and applied AI (LLMs, NER, computer vision) to solve high-stakes clinical communication problems. His background spans architecting large-scale platforms (Bark.com, Fasthosts) and shipping resilient, offline-first real-time apps that tolerate poor connectivity—an uncommon focus that directly improves patient outcomes. Known for growing teams rapidly and reducing cloud costs while improving observability and delivery, he pairs pragmatic technical direction with mentoring and governance to drive product-market fit. Based in Bristol, he brings a rare mix of long-term operational leadership and low-level engineering craft dating back to embedded and systems work in the 1990s.
