βLuke handles every aspect of our technology at HOP, from architecture and development right through to launch and beyond. Heβs always available when we need him, and what I value most is how he keeps me in the loop in a way I can actually understand. Iβm not a technical person, but Luke gives me the clarity I need to make real decisions about our product. Heβs launched new products for us, and I always feel confident that the technical side of the business is in safe hands.β

βWe brought Luke in to review our engineering setup: codebase, development practices, technical roadmap, and AI tooling. His findings gave us real clarity on where we stood and what needed to change. When our CTO departed, Luke stepped into a broader role, helping with C-suite planning, mapping our long-term technical direction, and driving a full inventory of our systems. He also played a key part in hiring our new engineering manager. Luke bridges deep technical expertise and strategic thinking, and he's become someone I genuinely rely on.β

Having Andy available for frontline support gives us real peace of mind, knowing weβre not reliant on any single person. Itβs that extra layer of resilience that makes the whole team feel solid.β
