About

Hi I'm Paul, the man behind Comet Coast Software.

Paul Crawford

Principal

For the last 4 years I've been CTO of a growth stage e-commerce platform company CommentSold. During that time we grew the platform by 20X and executed two PE deals. I built the Engineering team from 1 founding engineer alongside building the QA, Design and Product Management teams. I was directly responsible for Product & Eng leadership and direction for much of my time there. I recruited senior executives alongside our CEO for CPO and VP Engineering Roles.

Prior to CommentSold I was the technology leader for a consumer software company in the Fitness and Nutrition space. In that time I've scaled web applications to millions of users and shipped apps on platforms such as PS3, Xbox 360, Chromecast, Android, iOS and Roku.

Comet Coast Software is my effort to experiment with software products and to offer consulting services based on my experience with consumer software.

I can provide you with guidance on how to hire the right people, how to judge quality and cost of potential software work and how to evaluate technology partnerships.

My background is in Computer Science and Software development, I've worked professionally as a Web Developer, Mobile/iOS Developer, Team Lead, Director and Senior Technology Executive.
