Engineering Leader
Melbourne, Australia
Solutions-oriented engineering leader building trustworthy human-agent systems. I treat trust as an architectural outcome — designing environments where AI capability becomes dependable, governable behavior. Experienced in modernising technology ecosystems at scale, from near-real-time data pipelines to zero-trust security foundations.
Expertise
Architecting systems where AI agents earn trust through design, not demos. Defining delegation boundaries, escalation protocols, and legibility patterns so people can rely on agents repeatedly without confusion or loss of control.
Making agent state visible at a glance — thinking, waiting, acting, blocked, done. Designing inspection interfaces that replace black-box opacity with clear accountability.
Building pause, stop, retry, reroute, revert, and escalate as first-class operations. Recovery is not an afterthought — it is part of the trust contract.
Treating context quality — freshness, boundaries, structure — as the foundation of agent behaviour. Designing context pipelines with the same rigour as data infrastructure.
Measuring what matters: override rates, operator confidence, recovery time, and clarity of ownership — not just task completion or output quality.
Transforming legacy ecosystems with near-real-time data services, scaling provisioning from weeks to real-time, with zero-trust and security-by-design foundations.
"I am not trying to become someone who knows a lot about AI. I am becoming someone who knows how to design the human, technical, and organisational structures that allow AI agents to earn trust."
