§ 01 · About
Jamie is the technical co-founder of TrustPadel, responsible for the entire platform — from the data model that catalogues 22,000+ venues across 140+ countries through to the front-end experience players and clubs interact with every day.
Before TrustPadel, Jamie built and shipped software across e-commerce, ticketing, membership platforms, and analytics — the kind of infrastructure that has to work quietly and correctly at scale. That background shaped the way TrustPadel is engineered: fast, reliable, and honest about the data it shows.
On the product side, Jamie designs and writes the entire platform end-to-end — from the venue directory and vibe-scoring engine to the community, coach, and brand surfaces that connect the padel ecosystem. Every feature that ships passes through a single person, which keeps the product coherent and the pace deliberate.
Beyond code, Jamie leads TrustPadel's AI and machine-learning strategy — powering the vibe engine, data-quality tooling, natural-language search, and the automation that keeps 22,000+ venue records fresh without an army of moderators.
TrustPadel was built out of a belief that finding a padel court should be the easy part — that clubs deserve infrastructure that grows their community rather than extracting from it, and that players deserve honest signal over marketing fluff. Everything Jamie ships is aimed at that.
