§ 01 · Currently

Three things on the bench right now. The rest of the bio is on the résumé.

What I'm shipping, building & studying.

01 Shipping
APJ HR localisation at Dayforce.

Payroll & compliance services, monolith → versioned NuGet, SonarQube gates, EF perf wins on hot endpoints.

L3 · since 2021
02 Building
Victoria Crime Atlas.

End-to-end agentic build: UI in Claude Design, implementation in Claude Code. Worked example of the loop.

Personal · live
03 Studying
Agentic AI — patterns that hold.

DeepLearning.AI track — reflection, tool use, planning, multi-agent collaboration, MCP integration.

§ 02 · The loop

An agentic workflow used in production every day — ticket triage through merge-ready PR.

I don't use the tools — I built the loop around them.

01 · Context

Pull ticket

Read JIRA, repo, related PRs through MCP. Context is engineered, not retyped.

MCP · AtlassianMCP · GitHub
02 · Reason

Plan & probe

Agent drafts a plan, queries DB for the regression, identifies the hot path.

Claude CodeMCP · MSSQL
03 · Draft

Generate

Patch + tests proposed inline. I review, refine prompts, reject what's wrong.

CopilotCursor
04 · Verify

Run gates

SpecFlow regression, coverage check, SonarQube gate. Nothing ships unverified.

SpecFlowSonarQube
05 · Ship

Open PR

PR opened with ticket links, change summary, perf delta. Merge gate green.

Azure DevOpsGitHub

The skill isn't prompt-typing. It's context engineering, prompt design, and disciplined verification of generated output so it ships safely.

Weighted by how much I actually live in each. Type size = depth.

One project. Worth more than five.

The loop, applied.

Personal project · 2024

Victoria Crime Atlas.

An interactive atlas of Victoria's crime stats. UI in Claude Design. Implementation in Claude Code. A real test of the loop from blank canvas to deployable artifact — the work was prompt design, context engineering, and verification.

Let's build
something that ships. Available for mid-senior software engineer roles · Melbourne / Remote AU

If you need an engineer who ships the product and owns the AI loop around it — let's talk.
