Work experience

Proudest professional achievement
I led 18 engineers across two Agile squads, transforming inconsistent delivery into a predictable fortnightly release cycle through stronger team leadership, improved engineering practices and clear accountability. I also successfully led customer-facing software delivery and service engagements for complex warehouse automation solutions, working directly with customers to understand requirements, manage expectations, resolve critical issues and coordinate global engineering teams. I'm particularly proud of these achievements because they demonstrate my ability to build high-performing teams, establish trusted customer relationships and deliver meaningful business outcomes.

I bring 18+ years of experience delivering software products and business-critical platforms across SaaS and enterprise environments as an Engineering Manager. I'm a people-first leader focused on delivery predictability, platform reliability, operational excellence, and pragmatic technical decisions.

I've led engineering teams, improved engineering practices, supported production systems, driven incident/RCA improvements, and adopted AI-assisted development practices to improve productivity and quality. I'm hands-on when needed through architecture/design reviews, technical trade-offs and code quality discussions. I partner effectively across Product, UX/Design, QA, Operations, vendors and senior stakeholders across ANZ, EU and North America.

Education

I hold a Bachelor of Engineering (Software) from the University of Melbourne (2005) and a Master of Network Computing from Monash University (2009). I also hold professional certifications in PRINCE2 Agile and ITIL Foundation, supporting my expertise in engineering leadership, Agile delivery, project management and IT service management.
