Engineering software shaped by your organisation's real-world operations and challenges.
About David
David's career has been defined by strategic turnarounds and high-impact execution. For more than a decade he has worked across the Microsoft and Salesforce ecosystems, as an implementation partner and in product sales, simplifying complexity and delivering results that land with business and technology teams alike.
He led the Melbourne sales practice at Barhead Solutions through a turnaround that set the business up for growth and, ultimately, acquisition, and later co-founded a business helping organisations get more from the applications they already had. Cluie is the next chapter: pushing what AI-enabled delivery can achieve.
His path into technology wasn't a straight line. He served as a Navigation Officer in the Royal Australian Navy and built and sold a solar business before moving into software.
