Simon Pitt
Hello,
I'm Simon
I'm a writer and techie person. I work at the BBC as the Head of Product for Corporate Digital & Applications, running a team that mainly builds apps and tools for staff but I also look after around 100 of the BBC's corporate websites, that receive about 10m visitors per month.
Work, words,
and everything between.
Over the past twenty years I've grown a portfolio of work, spanning solution architecture to sound engineering. I brought enterprise mobile capability into the BBC doing all the fiddly technical work but also overseeing the branding and marketing of the product. I'm proud to have designed and built features that have supported tens of thousands of people do their jobs, from TV schedulers to journalists working abroad.
I write articles, mainly on Medium, but I also publish the newsletter Edge Cases about technology and the media.
Things to use
Apps, games, and experiments.
Things to read
Articles, notes, and ideas.
