About
I'm Benjamin Nicoll. I build companies and the software that powers them. These days that mostly means Uplinkd Group and ExeQuantum, alongside a handful of projects I've quietly invested myself in over the years.
My work tends to sit where technology meets operations - helping organisations of all shapes and sizes, from small businesses finding their feet through to Tier 1 enterprises navigating complex change.
What I care about
- Small teams shipping a lot, with leverage from agents and thoughtful automation.
- Honest, ethical businesses and people - clear, transparent value.
- Operational excellence: the quieter infrastructure that makes the interesting stuff possible.
- Data, payments, risk, governance, security, fraud - and the long tail of edge cases nobody really wants to own.
Background
Years spent across technology, integration, delivery, product, engineering, user experience and operations. Australian, based in Melbourne. Comfortable in the weeds - happier when the weeds are well-instrumented.
Currently
- Running Uplinkd Group and its portfolio.
- Writing the occasional note.
- Always open to a good conversation - [email protected].
