👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSteve Power is a seasoned technology leader and director with over a decade of direct engineering leadership experience and nearly two decades running his own consultancy, INITSIX, advising clients from HMRC to NBC on architecture, DevOps, security and interim C-suite roles. He blends hands-on engineering chops with strategic oversight, having led platform and cloud transformations for video streaming, blockchain recruitment startups, and privacy-focused products like Proton Drive. Known for pragmatic delivery, Steve moves teams from GitFlow to trunk-based workflows, embeds feature-team structures, and operationalises complex integrations to increase delivery cadence. Based in Bristol, he pairs enterprise-grade security experience from financial services and telco projects with product-focused engineering for consumer-facing OTT and mobile experiences. He’s equal parts practical technologist and people leader—self-described “leader of cats, herder of people”—who quietly scales teams and systems while keeping a playful entrepreneurial streak from his music-label and startup roots.
