Independent Product Builder · Software Engineer · Founder

I build and ship digital products across multiple industries.

I'm Christopher Dorman — an independent product builder, software engineer and founder. I specialise in taking products from concept to launch, combining technical development, commercial thinking and user-focused design. Whether building independently or working with a wider team, I'm comfortable moving between product strategy, software engineering, architecture and delivery.
