Paul Clarke
Chief Technology Officer of Ocado Group
Paul Clarke is Director of technology at Ocado, the world’s largest online-only grocery retailer. After joining Ocado in 2006, Paul initially worked on warehouse control systems and then joined the team designing Ocado’s next highly automated fulfilment centre. After establishing new teams for simulation and mobile development, Paul then co-wrote the first of Ocado’s award-winning mobile apps, which remain the only apps from a major retailer supporting full offline shopping. In his current role, Paul heads up Ocado Technology, whose 600+ software engineers and other IT specialists are responsible for building all the software and IT infrastructure that powers Ocado and Morrisons’ online grocery business. Ocado is in the midst of re-platforming its complete solution to create the Ocado Smart Platform — a combination of scalable, modular hardware for building automated warehouses and its end-to-end e-commerce and fulfilment solution running in the cloud. Ocado will use this platform to put retailers around the world online using their unique business model. In what little spare time he has alongside his work and family, Paul loves to invent and build stuff, design PCBs, write software and generally tinker.
