Engineering across
the whole system.
Robotics, industrial automation, embedded systems, industrial IT/OT, AI/ML and engineering software, integrated from requirements through commissioning and handover.
My working pattern is consistent: understand the whole system, isolate faults and leave clear evidence for verification, commissioning and handover.
Career timeline
Jan 2026 - Jun 2026
Automation and Controls Engineer
Process automation systems integrator
Delivered controls and integration work across PLC logic, HMI/SCADA, field devices, drives, MES and production data. Migrated validated application content from iFIX to PVI+, completed functional checks, and supported FAT, SAT, commissioning, handover and MiR mobile-robot fault tracing under GMP controls.
Oct 2025 - Jan 2026
Product Development Test Engineer (Contract)
Global automotive OEM via engineering consultancy
Validated vehicle-software integration and ADAS behaviour through feature-vehicle, breadboard and regression testing. Instrumented test vehicles, conducted structured drives, and used Vector CANoe and CANalyzer to capture CAN and CAN FD data for fault isolation, defect evidence and software-readiness verification.
Jul 2024 - Aug 2025
Technical Officer & Quality Assurance
ABMARC
Delivered ADR and EURO emissions work, EV/PHEV range testing and vehicle-systems evaluation using calibrated instrumentation, data acquisition and CAN tools. Maintained traceable QA, safety, regulatory and test records so results could stand up to certification review and audit.
Feb 2024 - Aug 2024
Consultant Engineer, IoT and Projects Administrator
DuxTel
Built field-to-dashboard solutions using ESP32 devices, sensors, LoRaWAN AU915, MQTT, ChirpStack, InfluxDB and Grafana. Supported CAN and GPS capture, custom PCB work, MikroTik connectivity and Linux services for agricultural-equipment telemetry from field trial through handover.
Aug 2022 - Feb 2024
Production Line Team Lead & Cellar Hand
IDL Australia
Led day-to-day output, changeovers and shift handovers while maintaining batch quality, traceability and safe operation. Performed first-response fault recovery and supported installation and commissioning checks during WestRock and Fibre-King canning-line upgrades.
Sep 2021 - Dec 2021
Production Line Operator and Commissioning Support
Carbon Revolution
Operated carbon-fibre wheel production equipment, recorded in-process quality and traceability evidence, and supported equipment trials, setup and first-level recovery during manufacturing changes. The role built practical discipline around controlled processes, repeatability and production handover.
Mar 2018 - Mar 2020
Undergraduate Quality Engineer
Thornton Engineering Australia
Supported drawing review, inspection and test plans, manufacturing data records, material traceability and AS/NZS compliance across design, workshop and inspection boundaries. Learned how design intent becomes auditable fabrication evidence on real production floors.

Beyond the work
Beyond project delivery, I play and help run my cricket club, mentor fellow students, and usually have a personal robotics or hardware build on the bench.
