Paul Whyte
Chief Technology Officer – EngineeringAs Chief Technology Officer at TransferRoom, I lead the end-to-end technical delivery across all our products, covering web, mobile, backend, data, AI, platform engineering, security, DevOps, and quality. I drive the alignment between technology and product strategy to ensure scalable, secure, and high-impact solutions for our global football marketplace.
I joined TransferRoom to combine my passion for transformative technology with a mission reshaping the football industry. Despite football’s global popularity, the way clubs, agents, and players connect has been fragmented — we're changing that with a digital marketplace already redefining how the game operates.
From day one, I saw the opportunity to modernise and scale the platform: enhancing delivery, engineering excellence, data insights, and introducing AI-led innovation. Our tech environment is fast-moving and outcome-focused, with a diverse stack and strong emphasis on automation, scalability, and continuous improvement.
What makes TR’s tech environment exciting to work in, and where your team is based?
We operate as a remote-first organisation, with engineering teams in Poland and Ukraine, and a culture rooted in agile practices, collaboration, and shared ownership. Engineers at TransferRoom are empowered to lead, experiment, and influence — whether through strategic projects, architecture, AI, or product direction. We support growth with mentorship, meaningful challenges, and real autonomy to shape the future of our platform.
