G'day!
I'm a sofware engineer with experience in automation, site reliability, and devops roles.
I've previously undertaken contracts with various Australian federal government departments, and worked in permanent roles at the medtech startup Oxehealth and in both the product and consultancy arms of Oxford Computer Consultants.
I spent 2019 until the end of 2022 in Oxford with my wife, Sarah, where she completed a D.Phil. investigating offshore wind turbine foundations. We're now in Perth, the Australian hub for offshore engineering.
When I'm not in front of the computer, you'll likely find me working to improve my Olympic lifts, or engaged in grappling sports such as judo, Olympic wrestling, or Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
