Former CEO, Julian Hepworth, has taken the role of CTO and Rob Di Paolo moves into the role of Chief Software Architect.

Peter Hajittofi says, “Having worked with Julian, Rob and Gavin at Pebble Beach Systems on traditional automation and video products, I’m genuinely excited to be joining a visionary new company that will create ground breaking cloud based solutions from the ground up. The transformation of the web from its origins as a document repository to the generic pay as you go compute service we call the cloud, has rewritten the rule book on how software solutions are created, deployed and utilised.
