In plain English
I’m a Melbourne-based graduate developer with a Master of IT (Professional) from Deakin, focused on secure software, practical systems, and projects that solve real problems instead of just checking assignment boxes.
What I bring is a mix of technical depth and grounded execution: I can work across backend logic, full-stack delivery, developer tooling, and product-facing detail without losing sight of reliability, clarity, or the user experience.
Alongside study, I work part-time nights at Coles while continuing to build outside class. That mix has made me disciplined, dependable, and comfortable delivering well even when the hours are not easy.
I’m on a Graduate Visa 485 with full work rights and no sponsorship requirement, and I’m looking for a graduate software role in Melbourne where I can contribute early and keep growing fast.

Where I
learned to think
Formal training gave me the theory. The value for employers is how consistently that theory turned into secure software, practical delivery, and clearer engineering judgment.

SECTOR 03 → 04 // STRENGTHS
03 How interests shape my work
Interests that sharpen
real strengths
These interests matter because they reinforce how I work in teams: calm under pressure, systems thinking, adaptability, and more disciplined engineering judgment.
Work signal
Formula One
Precision Under Pressure
Formula One rewards fast decisions, strong signals, and disciplined execution under noise. That same mindset shows up in how I debug, prioritize, and make architecture calls when the stakes are real.
Proof in practice:Spotted a smart contract reentrancy issue during DApp testing by reading event flow patterns closely and resolved it quickly.
Work signal
Space Exploration
Long-term System Thinking
Space systems make you think in interfaces, dependencies, and failure isolation. I bring that same approach to software by designing components that are modular, replaceable, and easier to evolve over time.
Proof in practice:The blockchain DApp was structured so contract logic, React UI, and wallet integration could change independently without collapsing the whole system.
Work signal
Adapting across domains
Adaptability & Range
I work well across changing contexts. That means learning unfamiliar domains quickly, switching levels of detail when needed, and staying useful whether the work is backend-heavy, product-facing, or somewhere in between.
Proof in practice:Moved across retail operations, blockchain work, and IoT builds within the same academic period while keeping output steady.
Work signal
Markets & Trading
Risk Intelligence & Data Discipline
Markets reward calm analysis, not surface-level certainty. I carry that into engineering by questioning easy answers, validating assumptions, and looking for the real signal before I call something done.
Proof in practice:Built extra failure-path testing for BLINXOE so the system was exercised beyond the happy path before it was considered ready.

FRIDAY — Multi-Agent AI Orchestration System
A multi-agent AI operating system that turns one assistant into a routed, tool-using software system. It solves the mess of isolated AI demos by combining orchestration, memory, security boundaries, and usable UX in one product a recruiter can evaluate quickly.
Why it matters
Shows how I handled the real problem of coordinating agents, tools, and security boundaries without losing clarity for the user, which is the kind of systems thinking teams need in production software.

NSE F&O Algorithmic Trading Bot
A live Python trading bot for NSE derivatives that automates signal detection, order execution, and risk controls. It solves the need for disciplined, repeatable trading decisions under pressure and shows I can build software that operates with real money and real consequences.
Why it matters
Shows how I built a production-style automation loop around live market data, execution logic, and risk management, which reflects engineering judgment as much as coding ability.

Blockchain-Based Decentralised To-Do App
A full-stack Ethereum DApp that stores task logic on-chain instead of relying on a central backend. It solves the trust problem by pushing CRUD rules into a smart contract and shows I can work across frontend, contract design, wallet auth, and deployment flow.
Why it matters
Shows how I handled the engineering trade-offs of decentralised state, wallet-based authentication, and contract-backed CRUD without hiding the complexity behind a simple interface.

An Arduino-based dual-axis solar tracker that repositions a panel using live light sensor data. It solves wasted energy from static panels and shows I can turn sensing, control logic, and measurable efficiency gains into a working hardware system.
Why it matters
Shows how I built a closed-loop physical system that reads environmental input, makes decisions in real time, and produces an outcome simple enough for a recruiter to grasp immediately.

A smart blind stick that uses ultrasonic sensing and haptic feedback to warn users about nearby obstacles. It solves a practical accessibility problem and shows I can build user-centered hardware with reliability, teamwork, and safety in mind.
Why it matters
Shows how I worked on a safety-sensitive device where the engineering challenge was not just making sensors work, but making feedback dependable enough to help a real user navigate confidently.
