SKILLS
ABOUT PAUL MADDOCKS
In an era where digital infrastructure is the backbone of public trust and economic stability, resilience is not just an engineering metric, it is a strategic imperative. As a Senior Technology Executive with over 20 years of experience in highly regulated financial sectors (Barclays, S&P Global), I specialize in building the platforms, security architectures, and engineering cultures that keep critical systems running at national and global scale.My career has been defined by a shift from \"keeping the lights on\" to \"engineering immunity.\" I lead large-scale transformations that merge Platform Engineering, Cyber Security, and Site Reliability Engineering into cohesive ecosystems. I don’t just deploy technology, I define the governance, the operating model, and the safety culture that allows hundreds of engineers to innovate without compromising security or availability.Proven track record of safeguarding Tier-1 financial platforms against outages and cyber threats, ensuring 24/7 availability for high-volume transactional systems. Experience leading multidisciplinary teams (DevSecOps, SRE, Cloud) through major cultural shifts, moving from siloed operations to collaborative,\"secure-by-design\" delivery models. Deep expertise in navigating complex compliance landscapes (ISO, Financial Regulations) and translating them into technical standards that enable, rather than block, delivery.I am passionate about applying enterprise-grade rigor and ensuring that digital services are accessible, secure, and resilient all stakeholders who rely on them.
