/about

I lead engineering at rubica, an AI platform for Australian financial advisers. As the founding engineer, I built and run the AI chat platform, the Model Context Protocol connector fleet (Microsoft 365, Dynamics, Salesforce, document generation), and the production infrastructure they sit on — multi-provider routing across AWS Bedrock, native Anthropic, Google and OpenAI.

My work sits at the intersection of platform engineering and security: pen-test-ready posture (CodeQL on every PR, CycloneDX SBOM on every release, signed commits, CPS 234-aligned incident response), release engineering (CalVer, trunk-based, two-phase AWS migrations), and the token-budget pruners that keep production AI systems from collapsing under their own context.

I write about what I build — production AI systems, LLM infrastructure, MCP connectors, and the occasional CVE disclosure.
