Experience

July 2024 - Present

Corbel Group

Software Engineer - AI Systems & Automation

As a Software Engineer at Corbel, I am building features to enhance client web applications, concentrating on delivering responsive, interactive experiences with a strong emphasis on enhancing existing applications with AI and modernising legacy codebases.


  • Design, build, and deploy AI-enabled features for production applications used by large national clients, including Zambrero and SIXT. Working across diverse tech stacks including .NET C#, TypeScript, React, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, and Azure.
  • Integrate AI capabilities into existing products and business workflows, with a focus on reliability, maintainability, and practical user outcomes.
  • Designed and deployed an internal AI-assisted project scoping workflow for the bidding and proposals team, using Microsoft Foundry and Copilot Studio to convert client meeting inputs into structured project briefs, scope documentation, and quotation drafts. Reduced the turnaround time from initial client discussion to proposal preparation while improving consistency across submissions.
  • Work directly with clients and stakeholders to identify opportunities for automation, refine requirements, and translate business problems into clear technical solutions.
  • Improve existing applications by reviewing architecture, resolving technical issues, and implementing changes across frontend, backend, data, and cloud layers.

Jan 2021 - July 2024

Webatoo Design Australia

Frontend Developer

Designing websites and web apps, focusing on front-end development. I work directly with clients and excel in functional design which I believe is essential for resolving complex programming tasks. Increasingly involved in full-stack development.


  • Tech stack includes HTML, CSS, JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, and modern frameworks including Next.js, React.js, Node.js and Tailwind CSS. My role has significantly contributed to my exposure to various tech stacks.
  • I have Integrated Open AI's API into backend workflows including interaction of LLMs with Stripe and Google APIs. I have engineered prompts to handle dynamic inputs from props and then formatted outputs into components that have then been displayed on the frontend.
  • I have developed websites and web apps for clients in various industries and sectors, employing responsive/mobile-first design strategies. Websites have consistently ranked high in Google, attesting my skill in organic SEO practices. I have worked directly with clients and external teams to manage expectations, iterate and refine designs and suggest new methods based on testing and UX.
  • I have conducted collaborative app wire-framing sessions and design iteration, including consultation with client, with effective use of collaborative design tools such as Figma and Canva.
  • I have integrated various types of databases into applications using MySQL, Postgres, Supabase, and MongoDB. This includes authenticated and secure sessions for CRUD functionality through PKCE and oAuth2.0 flow.
  • I am highly skilled in WordPress CMS for articles, publications, and media content.
  • I have a strong understanding of Git version control software and CI/CD (Azure Devops, GitHub Actions), as well as Agile methodology and Scrum, having earned a PSM-1 certification.

Feb 2019 - Oct 2020

Columbia Australia

Robotics Engineer (Manufacturing Automation)

Programming and commissioning of robotic automated manufacturing lines for Hydrogen Fuel Cell production.


  • I designed production-grade robot programs for high-volume automated manufacturing. My programs prioritised cycle time minimisation, modularity in order to adjust production volume rapidly, and safety.
  • My role encapsulted a great intersection between robotics and Machine Learning (ML); I configured and trained feature recognition algorithms (computer vision) to identify and classify reject parts from production that were subsequently removed by the robot.
  • I designed and commissioned various complex robotic manufacturing processes for key stages in the manufacture of hydrogen fuel cells including sand-blasting, HVOF thermal spraying and plasma coating.
  • I designed numerous robot end-of-arm tools (EOAT) that were used in extreme environments meaning they had to be internally cooled and wired. I developed complex CAD (Inventor and Solidworks) parts and assemblies, making use of OEM components such as pneumatics, and sensors.
  • I coordinated testing and evaluation of new processes and designs which included the use of Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to analyse loads and gas dynamics within robotic cells. I often presented findings and recommended improvements to management.
  • I fabricated parts in-house using standard machine shop equipment such as mills, lathes, bandsaws and GD&T tooling. I have hands on experience with materials such as Aluminium, Titanium and Steel, which I used selectively which developing robotic EOATs and peripherals.
  • I developed comprehensive setup, usage, and maintenance documentation for robotic cells, facilitating easy reference for factory staff.

May 2017 - Nov 2018

Monash DeepNeuron

Deep Learning Engineer & Partnerships Manager

Developed and configured convolutional neural networks (CNN) for image processing and classification using large datasets for various university research projects. Coordinated large-scale university events for students and sponsoring companies. Attracted engagement and sponsorship from companies including AWS, KPMG, Eliiza, and Monash University.


  • Developed and configured convolutional neural networks (CNN) for image processing and classification using large datasets for projects related to university research and student engineering teams.
  • Proficiency in Python for data processing and visualisation including use libraries such as PyTorch and fast.ai, datasets from Kaggle/Empiar, and hardware acceleration from Google.
  • Coordinated large-scale university events for students and sponsoring companies. Attracted engagement and sponsorship from companies including AWS, KPMG, Eliiza, and Monash University. Demonstrated ability to coordinate activities and communication between multiple entities towards a common goal.
  • Here is a research paper that my team and I were accredited for, for our work in providing model development and data fitting for a research project into the classification of sperm-head morphology through ensembled deep learning.
  • Here is a panel I hosted for over 100 students at Monash discussing Machine Learning and AI.
