Jeremy Tomlin

I have built and managed teams of product managers both local and remote for over 10 years.

The solutions I have created and managed include B2B and B2C SAAS (AWS) products and services developed using agile development methodologies (Scaled Agile/Scrum). As well as solutions that included 3rd party components.

I have twice created solutions that have won awards from industry analysts including Gartner magic quadrant top right positioning meaning it was considered the best solution in the market. After three years in my current position I have repeated this with a gold award for Cyber Security Global Excellence from Kuppinger Cole.

In my last two roles the services I have created have grown hugely at Thales the service had an ARR of less than $10k when I started and over $40m when I left. At HID Global the service has grown from less than 100k users to over 10m.

The solutions I have built and launched include server software and mobile apps used by 10’s of millions of people.
