What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead technically complex digital, AI, geospatial, hardware, or regulated products where I can turn research and technical evidence into clear product direction and delivery.

I've shaped technical product decisions for Nearmap, NHVR, Big Picture Medical, Westpac, Brighter Super, and Wesley Mission Queensland. At Nearmap, I built the market evaluation and bespoke-build case for a roof mesh workflow needing 10x–100x scale.

At Big Picture Medical, I coordinated manufacturing, hardware integration, and TGA regulatory pathways for an AI-enabled telehealth and clinical eye-screening platform. I also identified a TGA approval gap before build commitment and delivered a working clinical scanning kiosk installation on schedule.

More recently, I've rebuilt a stalled NHVR programme baseline, used Claude to turn 13+ hours of regulatory training into searchable domain knowledge, and shipped 10+ AI products solo using Python, Apify, and the Claude API. I turn technical constraints, research, and operational evidence into product direction teams and executives can act on.

Built market evaluation and bespoke-build case for a geospatial platform, disqualifying ArcGIS Workflow Manager and Mapbox on technical and commercial grounds. Led self-directed ideation of an AI-driven geospatial workflow system.
