I build AI platforms and lead enterprise technology transformation.

Australia
Message

At Scout7.ai, I founded and built a multi-agent marketing platform that runs research, content, organic growth and paid media workflows. I personally built about 70% of the product, led a six-person team that shipped four products, and helped one reach #1 on Product Hunt.

Previously, as Head of Innovation & CTO at Forwood Safety, I owned a USD 5.4M budget and led 80+ people across product, engineering and data science in Australia and India. I consolidated five customer-specific applications into one multi-tenant product, improved delivery against commitment from 60% to 72%, and delivered production AI for live CCTV safety detection and compliance.

I’ve also led 250+ integrations for City West Water’s enterprise transformation, built Rubicon Red’s India capability centre from zero to about 90 people, and developed shared integration capabilities for Victoria’s smart-meter rollout. I continue to build hands-on, publishing Agentic Architecture Skills and practical research for running AI agents inside large organisations.
