Craig Wright.

Architecture. For me, architecture is making decisions that stay good for longer than the project that needed them, and sometimes that means arguing for the harder option. At Oxfam I made the case for a bespoke e-commerce platform, because the shops worked in a way no off-the-shelf platform was built for. I've done enterprise and solution architecture across retail, fundraising, operations and regulated financial services, along with data strategy and integration.

Engineering. I write software, and always have, from airport self-checkout kiosks to most of the first version of Oxfam's e-commerce platform. These days the projects are where I push into new ground: a 3D game with its own water simulation, the hub that now runs our house, and a home catalogue app built in two weeks.

Leadership. I build teams people want to stay in, and technology functions the rest of an organisation trusts. At Oxfam that meant building the in-house engineering team behind e-commerce, then bringing engineering, testing, architecture and data governance into one accountable department. At Make-A-Wish it's meant reframing technology as a set of costed capabilities, so leadership can prioritise with evidence rather than instinct.

At work: leading technology and innovation at Make-A-Wish UK. That means modernising the foundations (infrastructure, cyber security, service management, Salesforce and data) and laying the technical groundwork for an organisation-wide transformation. AI is one part of that: an agent, funded through the Salesforce Accelerator, that matches donated gifts to the children wishing for them, and helping teams find where AI genuinely helps, without losing track of where the risks are.

Outside it: treating AI as an engineering component rather than a chatbot, and making a small home server rebuildable from a blank disk. I write about that side in Musings.
