I'm Dr Glenn Atter, a CTO-level technologist focused on building secure, scalable platforms and leading high-growth teams. I've led CIO/CSO functions, established governance, security, disaster recovery, and IT policy while scaling organizations from 5 to 150+ people. I design cloud-native, multi-region architectures and deliver CI/CD pipelines, observability, cost controls, and SLO-driven reliability. I'm hands-on across the stack, with modern JavaScript ecosystems (Angular, ReactJS, Redux, Node.js, NestJS) and a knack for turning strategy into operational reality. I excel at aligning technology with business outcomes, communicating across boardrooms to engineering floors. I emphasize security-by-design, incident response, and robust DevOps practices, and I've steered IT operations, device management, and governance in regulated settings (Cyber Essentials Plus, NHS DTAC) while enabling growth and positive social impact.…I'm Dr Glenn Atter, a CTO-level technologist focused on building secure, scalable platforms and leading high-growth teams.
