Leadership Team

Theo Saville

CEO & Co-Founder

Theo is a Manufacturing and Mechanical Engineer (M.Eng, University of Warwick), with a background in defence, laser-based metals 3D printing research at Warwick Manufacturing Group, and sales.

Theo entered metals 3D printing expecting to be able to harness a technology ready to disrupt manufacturing, but gradually became disillusioned with the state and future applicability of the technology.

He was exposed to CNC machining around the same time and realised the disruptive potential if it could be automated to the same degree as plastics 3D printing, and he co-founded CloudNC to realise that opportunity. Theo was recognised in the 2019 Forbes 30 under 30 in Manufacturing & Industry and in the MIT 35 Under 35 in 2023.

Chris Emery

Chief Scientist & Co-Founder

Chris has expertise in the fields of 3D Graphics and High Performance Computing, and an M.Eng in Computing from Imperial College London. Chris has been programming since the age of 12, having been coached by his parents (both software engineers) and started selling shareware when he was 15.

He co-created “EventBox”, which was acquired by Realmac Software within 12 months of launch. He then worked as a software engineer at Google, before leaving to found Five Sided Software. Prior to CloudNC he developed a GPU accelerated lightmapping engine of his own design for mobile games.

Chris was recognised in the 2019 Forbes 30 under 30 in Manufacturing & Industry.
