CI/CD & Supply Chain Security
Secure delivery pipelines, image signing, SBOMs, provenance, policy gates, and promotion workflows.
Kubernetes & Platform Engineering
EKS/GKE, GitOps, ingress, DNS, autoscaling, workload standards, observability, and runtime guardrails.
Observability & Reliability
Metrics, logs, traces, dashboards, SLOs, alerting, runbooks, and production support maturity.
AI Workflow Implementation
Internal knowledge assistants, RAG, function calling, workflow automation, guardrails, and observability.
Platform
Build, repair, or mature your cloud platform
The work is practical: reduce deployment risk, improve developer experience, control cloud sprawl, harden security, and make production easier to operate.
- Cloud foundations
- Account structure, environments, IAM, Terraform, networking, security baselines, backups, monitoring, and cost controls.
- Delivery systems
- CI/CD, GitOps, deployment patterns, release promotion, image signing, SBOMs, policy gates, and audit trails.
- Production operations
- Observability, alerting, SLOs, runbooks, incident readiness, reliability improvement, and operational handover.
AI
AI engineering from architecture to production
We design, build, integrate and deploy AI systems, from knowledge retrieval and tool integrations to agentic workflows. Cloud architecture, security, evaluation and observability support the full path from implementation to production operations.
- Repository-aware development
- Give coding tools repository context, clear acceptance criteria and bounded tasks. Review the changes and validate behaviour before release.
- Connected tools
- Scope tool access to the task. Explore API and MCP integrations with explicit permissions, reviewable actions and failure handling.
- Measured improvement
- Start with one workflow, compare results with the current process, and evaluate accuracy, effort and cost before expanding automation.
Experience
Cloud platforms across SaaS, finance and media
We draw on over 20 years of experience in the Australian IT industry, spanning product development and enterprise platform delivery. Selected work includes TablePace, an owned SaaS product, alongside engineering projects delivered in prior corporate roles.
