Work

What I have spent my time building, where I have been, and what I write about.

Products I've Built & Shipped

I owned the vision and got deep into the build. But none of these shipped without people who challenged the approach, filled the gaps, and made the work better than I could have alone.

Oz Onboard

Workday Marketplace

Australia-specific onboarding compliance solution addressing workflow and regulatory gaps unique to that geography.

Workday Extend

Built natively on Workday Extend and published to the Workday Marketplace to solve compliance requirements that the core Workday product did not cover for Australian customers.

Published to Workday Marketplace

Kudos

Workday Marketplace

Fully native peer-to-peer employee recognition platform built entirely within Workday.

Workday Extend

Product-managed end-to-end through marketplace publication. Gives organisations a recognition tool that lives inside the platform their employees already use every day.

Published to Workday Marketplace

Euno (E1 PSA)

Standalone SaaS

End-to-end Professional Services Automation platform covering client onboarding, project delivery, consultant time tracking, SOW and milestone management, and budget efficiency analytics.

Next.jsReactTailwind CSS

Built because the organisation was running on a fragmented patchwork of broken tools. Replaced everything. When the leadership team saw it for the first time, the reaction was disbelief — they had been guessing at pipeline, profitability, forecasting and bench strength for years. Euno made it all visible.

Replaced entire internal toolchain

BP Insights

Standalone SaaS

Process mining tool for Workday business process configurations. Enables organisations to analyse BP setups, identify inefficiency patterns and improvement opportunities.

PythonFastAPIChart.jsVanilla JS

Fills a gap in the Workday ecosystem where customers have no native visibility into how their business process configurations compare or where inefficiencies lie.

Time Logix

Standalone SaaS

Custom web kiosk application solving a California-specific time reporting compliance gap in Workday.

LaravelReactMySQL

Designed and shipped as a standalone time clock product deployed on physical kiosks — a compliant alternative to the native Workday time clock for California labour law requirements.

Deployed on physical kiosks

Job Pro

Standalone SaaS

Job profile management tool with an approval framework for profile changes and style governance for job descriptions.

LaravelReactMySQLFilamentPHP

Delivered for a bank under strict HR data regulations. Built through significant bureaucratic resistance. Went live. Workday later filled the same gap in their own product — which validated the original gap identification.

Gap later validated by Workday

SIP

Standalone SaaS

AI-driven OCR workflow automating the capture, validation and posting of invoices across multiple downstream systems.

Workday ExtendAI/OCR

Replaced a manual, opaque process with a transparent end-to-end pipeline. Pushed through active resistance from a skeptical finance team — addressed every objection through iteration and earned their trust.

Won over a skeptical finance team

AI Performance Review

AI & Agentic

AI-assisted performance review tool built natively on Workday Extend. Aggregates feedback, goals and contributions from the HRIS and generates a concise AI summary for reviewers, reducing bias and reviewer effort.

Workday ExtendLLMEvals

Applied structured evals to validate model output quality — ensuring summaries were accurate, balanced and consistent before rollout.

Structured evals for output quality

E1 Elevate

AI & Agentic

Intern onboarding platform built entirely through AI-assisted development. Guided interns through a gamified Trailblazer-style programme covering Workday modules, organisation-wide interactions, viva assessments and milestone tracking.

AI-Assisted Dev

Became a standout internal hit and a live proof point for what AI-assisted development can ship end-to-end. Built over a single weekend.

Built in a weekend

My Agentic Team

AI & Agentic

A platform that lets Workday users spin off task-specific AI agents on demand, each scoped to a defined HR workflow.

AI-Assisted DevAgentic AIWorkday

Built entirely with AI-assisted development. A live proof of concept for agentic HR technology and what the next generation of people tools can look like.

Working pilot — agentic HR

A curated list. The full body of work runs deeper.

Projects at Home

The same instinct that drives me to build products at work carries straight into life at home.

Home Cockpit

A command centre that runs the entire household — calendars, to-do lists, chores, medication schedules, exercise, appointments.

  • Centralises every aspect of family logistics into a single interface
  • Manages medication and supplement schedules
  • Coordinates calendars, chores and appointments across the family

RTSP Camera Portal

An AI-powered camera monitoring system that derives behavioural insights from home RTSP camera feeds.

  • Analyses which combinations of kids play together most
  • Tracks screen time and snacking patterns
  • Tracks my daughter's overnight waking patterns. How often, how long, and what trends emerge over time
  • More is planned. Safety monitoring, enriching her recreation, and giving her the support she deserves through technology

Family

One of my children has autism. The RTSP Camera Portal started with her — tracking whether she wakes in the night, how often, and what patterns emerge over time.

I have started prototyping something more serious: a system that objectively tracks the full texture of her daily life and lets AI spot patterns, flag issues, and surface things that are hard to see from inside the day-to-day.

This is not a commercial idea. It comes from a real place. It sits alongside everything else I build because I genuinely believe AI can carry weight that people should not have to carry alone.
