Being proficient in my cloud skills (particularly AWS), I currently work at Blackmagic Design on their cloud solutions in the videography industry. Working on intuitive features such as near real time collaboration in video editors, to cloud oriented project libraries and presentations, to “Camera to Cloud” feature where recording on a Blackmagic Camera can upload directly into your video editor speeding up the post production stage significantly.

After buying my first home, I met with a couple with a bold idea. To revolutionise the trade industry by making it easier to manage their business from one place. I volunteer my free time on this project where I act as the chief technology officer, providing guidance and solutions for the platform being built. Currently a work in progress, the platform will allow traders to manage many aspects of their workflow through one web application, with features such as onsite quoting, tracking the entirety of the jobs progress from quotes to payments and see real time insights about the jobs they conduct.

Intelematics works in the automotive industry. Having being around Intelematic's products and services, I started getting into the full-stack experience during my role. One of the major products I worked on was a solution regarding vehicle safety and security. Working on both back end and front end, I worked on delivering critical, real-time vehicle incident data on a custom built call centre web application, providing potentially life-saving technology that empowers smarter and faster emergency responses.

Leveling up my skills, it was time to show what I learnt. I worked on multiple products, ranging from a battery preventative maintenance solution to prevent vehicle breakdowns due to battery failure, to a connected vehicle solution utilising a dongle plugged into the car with real time data flow and processing which could then show statistics about driving such as trips, harsh accelerations/braking, and errors on the vehicle computer. During this time I mostly worked on the back-end systems.

As a graduate I focused on absorbing as much as possible about the tech sector. I occupied myself with mastering programming languages and web development frameworks, working on projects to build my skills in front end and back end. A significant portion of my time was dedicated to exploring cloud technologies such as AWS, allowing me to leverage the benefit of cloud computing, including scalability and efficiency. With these skills as a graduate I completed three AWS certifications.

Future Smith was a platform that strives to support ageing well in Australian communities. Upon graduating university, I volunteered for Future Smith as a back-end developer/tech guidance to build a platform that would enhance the volunteering experiences of retirees, but has since evolved to include a broader range of projects under the ageing-well umbrella.
