Si Taylor
Managing Director @ SigmaTau Design Ltd | Royal Air Force Avionics Engineer (Ret.) | Designer
A highly motivated and hardworking individual with over 26 years of experience as an Aircraft Avionics Engineer in the Royal Air Force. Possessing a diverse range of interpersonal and professionally developed management skills, I approach every goal with a "can and will do" attitude.
Experienced in demanding environments, from front-line military operations to detailed maintenance tasks, I thrive on challenges and have a proven track record of developing best practices, implementing efficient processes, and building cohesive teams.
With a strong understanding and keen interest in current technologies, including AI, graphic design, web design, and mobile app development, I adapt quickly and enjoy acquiring new skills. Now semi-retired from the RAF, I remain actively engaged in technology and design through my company, SigmaTau Design Ltd.
