Builder · Principal Engineer at Atlassian· Sydney
I build useful products and the platforms behind them.
I like turning complicated problems into systems people can rely on. My focus is SaaS, cloud platforms, and distributed systems. Outside work, I build tools for focus, organisation, and play.
What I'm focused on.
I'm exploring how AI changes the way I build software — from planning and implementation to review and handoffs. I'm testing those workflows on my own projects and learning where they help, where they fail, and what still needs human judgement.
