Dom Dunnett

I turn complexity into clarity, then ship it.

Product leader with a background in law and software engineering. I turn complicated problems into useful products, and still work close to the code.

Based in Scotland, near enough to the sea that the surf forecast has become a side project.

How I work

Craft over volume. Systems over features.

I build real things and test the real deal, rather than manage from a distance.

Direct, adult-to-adult communication. Small teams with real ownership.

Sustainable ambition. Exceptional work at a liveable pace.

Four years scaling payments infrastructure across Southeast Asia. Joined as an early PM hire and became Product Lead for Money-In, leading teams across five markets.

Started as a software engineer, transitioned into product. The engineering background I still rely on every day.

Projects

▸Should I Surf?2025–present

A personalised surf forecasting app that learns where, when, and how you like to surf, then turns forecast data into a simple recommendation. Built because forecast tools give you numbers, not decisions. Currently building the native iOS app.
