I'm an experienced IT professional based in Sydney, working in the industry since 2007 across roles from developer to solution architect, technical lead, and development manager. My expertise lies in Microsoft technologies, from the first release of .NET to the latest .NET 9, complemented by hands-on experience with a range of emerging, cutting-edge technologies.
I combine strong technical leadership with deep back-end development and system integration skills. My engineering background and 20+ years of hobby projects in electronics and remote-control systems give me a unique problem-solving mindset and a genuine curiosity for how things work.
I'm looking for a role where I can tackle challenging problems, make technology just work, and collaborate with passionate teams—while continuing to explore exciting areas like Smart Things and AI.
