Toby Bailey

A resident of sunny Nelson, New Zealand, I was previously located in Edinburgh, Scotland. For the last 20+ years I’ve worked in the technology sector turning my hand to a huge variety of different challenges:

Software design – Mobile applications, embedded micro-processor applications, data analysis and machine learning, devops and test automation.
Electronic hardware design – dealing with all kinds of customer products including multi-channel hi-definition audio boards, camera modules, 3G/4G cellular platforms, Wi-Fi integrations and Bluetooth based audio and sensor modules.
Product design – 3D modelling and CAD, materials, prototyping and manufacture.
Integrated circuit design (microchips) – from simulating analogue blocks to managing entire system on chip developments, image sensors to power-line networking chips

I’ve worked at all levels from junior engineer to member of the board. I’ve been with start-ups from day one and I’ve run large technical teams for Fortune 500 companies. I’ve been in the lab at 2 a.m. debugging esoteric problems and presented investor pitches in a suit and tie. I’ve delivered nerve-wracking barely held together demos and I’ve guided whole teams through ISO quality certifications.

I’ve come to understand that I’m addicted to building things and I derive my satisfaction from helping take something from concept to excellence… be that a consumer electronic product, some software, a micro-chip, a technical team, organisational structure or a business process.

I’m keen to use that experience to help your company realise its goals and grow.
