Donald Wade – independent delivery, product and technology leadership. Perth, WA.

Cloud West

I work where business and technical teams meet. My work covers leading delivery, shaping products, and untangling programmes that have stalled. The job is usually the same: get the right people seeing the same problem, then get it done.

My background spans marketing, recruitment, hands-on software development, product development, cloud infrastructure and DevOps, and senior delivery and change leadership. I've worked with early-stage startups building their first product, and with enterprise and government programmes with a lot on the line.

Selected work

  • Lotterywest – Play Online rebuild. Led it end to end. Delivered ahead of schedule and under budget, with 9.89/10 stakeholder satisfaction.
  • BHP. Led concurrent system upgrades, on time and under budget.
  • FinClear. Led an MVP delivery, on time and under budget.
  • Horizon Power. Advised on cloud cost strategy.
  • SMEs and startups. Advising on the sensible, safe adoption of AI, market positioning, pricing and product design.
