About Me
I’m Andy Weir, a Software Delivery Consultant specialising in architecture, software delivery, and how teams work in practice.
I help organisations modernise platforms, improve flow, and build systems that scale without losing sight of the outcomes those systems are meant to deliver.
I’ve spent over 20 years in software engineering across various industries, including HealthTech, retail, travel, and oil and gas, solving delivery problems in different technical and organisational environments. I work directly with the people who build and run the software, shaping decisions where architecture, tools, and team dynamics meet.
Outside work, you’ll find me racing a small yacht, paddle-boarding the Cornish coast, or reading something nerdy.
Experience
In my current role, I help clients modernise legacy systems, streamline delivery, and shape systems that are maintainable, scalable, and aligned with long-term goals.
Modernising Legacy Systems
I’ve led projects to break down fragile monoliths into modular services, utilising incremental migration strategies that strike a balance between risk and continuity.
Optimising Software Delivery
I help teams improve feedback loops, reduce delivery friction, and build systems that support fast, safe change through continuous integration and deployment practices.
Aligning Engineering with Outcomes
I work with developers, stakeholders, and leadership to clarify goals, prioritise technical investments, and align delivery work with meaningful business outcomes.
Approach
My work focuses on making delivery effective, not just technically sound but also safe, scalable, and grounded in how teams actually work. I help teams modernise systems, simplify delivery, and build software that works in the real world.
Digital Transformation
I support teams through high-stakes change, evolving architecture, addressing technical debt, and reshaping systems to make them easier to maintain, adapt, and grow.
Outcome-Driven Delivery
My work focuses on outcomes, not outputs. I help teams identify what success looks like and adapt architecture, delivery workflows, and team habits to achieve it.
Deep Technical Foundations
From backend APIs to CI pipelines, I draw on deep technical experience and grounded design principles to help teams build software that lasts.
Personal Interests - Yacht Racing
I’m the skipper of Bad Habits, a Hydro 28 yacht raced out of Flushing Sailing Club. Leading a crew of five, I enjoy the competitive and strategic side of sailing, balancing strategy, navigation, teamwork, and technical skills. It sharpens my judgement under pressure, both on and off the water.
