## about

I'm a Systems Development Engineer at AWS in Melbourne. My day job is cloud infrastructure — distributed systems, data pipelines, and the parts of a platform that nobody notices until they break. I spend most of my time thinking about how to make large-scale systems more reliable, more observable, and less painful to operate.

Outside of work, I build tools that I actually want to use. beads-superpowers is a skills plugin for AI coding agents that enforces structured workflows — research before planning, planning before coding, verification before shipping. I also built a Discord bot ecosystem with server-configuration-as-code using Terraform, and I spend more time than I probably should automating my own development environment.

I'm interested in the intersection of developer tooling and AI agents — specifically, how to constrain AI systems so they produce reliable work instead of confident garbage. Most of the projects on my GitHub are experiments in that space.
