Hello, I'm Matthew

I'm a Delivery Principal at Version 1 with 8 years' experience leading high-value public sector projects, working at the UK Government - Department for Science, Innovation and Technology.

My background is in software engineering, which I still pursue as a hobby. I've worked on healthcare programmes including the NHS App, UK Health Security Agency, and NIHR.

This site showcases my personal projects and occasional thoughts on what I'm working on.
