I design and ship software, systems, and infrastructure that teams can trust.
I build ERP platforms, internal operations systems, cloud infrastructure and automation for schools, businesses and growing teams. My work sits at the intersection of product, engineering and operations.
Led four engineering teams • Shipped a school ERP • Built mobile-to-ERP integrations
- • ERP, workflow automation and internal business systems
- • Cloud infrastructure, observability and incident response
- • System architecture and technical leadership
Two ways to work with me.
Whether you need a leader for your team or a builder for your business, the process is clear and the responsibility stays tight.
Senior software engineering & leadership.
Full-time, senior and lead roles for teams that need someone to own architecture, delivery and technical direction.
Fractional delivery, consulting & systems work.
Product-minded delivery for custom software, internal systems, AI workflows, audits and infrastructure improvements.
A track record in real operations.
ERP delivery, integrations, automation and infrastructure work where the outcome mattered more than the demo.
Full-Stack School ERP
Designed and shipped a full-stack ERP end-to-end — from requirements through deployment — consolidating student records, attendance, finance and communication, with notification, messaging and authentication capabilities serving the whole institution.
Read case studyAtlas — Distributed Infrastructure Engine
Atlas discovers and models infrastructure as a graph, schedules workloads, replicates state through a from-scratch Raft layer, injects controlled failures, correlates them into incidents and produces advisory AI analysis — running entirely over an in-memory event bus on a single machine, with real-time visualization and algorithmic transparency.
Read case studyNEXUS — Autonomous Homelab SRE
An evidence-first autonomous SRE agent built around four hard rules — evidence over vibes, allowlisted typed tools, approval enforced outside the model, and explainable reasoning. Investigates incidents the way a careful operator would, verified live against PostgreSQL and Redis.
Read case studyTechnical direction that holds under pressure.
I’ve led cross-functional engineering teams, owned production operations, and turned messy operational work into reliable digital systems.
Delivered across live production systems and services.
Optimised Azure cost and operational overhead.
Replaced fragile manual steps with CI/CD and automation.
Manual admin and ops tasks removed through automation.
Notes from the work.
