I build fast, reliable software for high-stakes problems.

I'm a senior software engineer based in Vancouver. I build mission-critical, real-time software for the aerospace and fuel delivery industries.

At Scamp Technologies, I led frontend development for a fuel delivery load management platform used by dispatchers, with real-time updates and live truck tracking on an interactive map. The system had to stay fast and reliable for people making time-sensitive decisions all day.

Before that, I was a software engineer at MDA Space, where I built satellite imaging scheduling and mapping tools, as well as an elevation and terrain detection system.

Earlier, I was a full stack developer at TEEMA Solutions, building contract tracking and automation systems that replaced manual workflows for recruiters and back office staff.

I care deeply about UIs that look good, stay fast, and are easy to use, and I bring that standard to every project and professional role.

Work

  • Load management platform

    Fuel delivery load management

    Scamp Technologies · 2026

    This is the fuel delivery load management platform at Scamp Technologies, used by 150 dispatchers managing 800+ loads a day. It has real-time updates and live tracking of 300+ trucks on an interactive map, and it has to stay reliable for people making time-sensitive decisions.

    I led the frontend architecture, development, estimation, and testing. I designed safety-validated compartment and tank mapping, load versioning, multi-leg journey editing, and a real-time drag-and-drop calendar to view and adjust loads. Testing coverage grew from about 30% to 75%, and production regressions fell by about 40%.

  • Satellite imaging and terrain detection

    Satellite imaging and terrain detection

    MDA Space · 2023

    At MDA Space I shipped satellite imaging scheduling and mapping for government and commercial geospatial clients, and built an elevation and terrain change detection tool in ArcGIS.

    That was 2 major contract projects on a 4-person frontend team. The terrain tool lets clients compare terrain changes across multi-year time ranges.

  • MinariAI

    Multi-agent orchestration

    Project · 2026

    MinariAI is a multi-agent orchestration system I have been building since February 2026. It coordinates tool-calling agents for code generation, browser automation, and structured data workflows.

    The runs sit on Temporal.io so a multi-step task can stay durable, repeatable, and resumable, with RAG, prompt compression, and human-in-the-loop review.

  • Purpl

    Swipe based talent matching

    Project · 2022

    Purpl is a React Native mobile app that connects job seekers and employers, with a role-based feed, matching, in-app chat, and notifications.

    I designed, built, and shipped this two-sided marketplace to the App Store as a solo developer. It was the first mobile product I took all the way through build, launch, and the ongoing work of keeping it running in production as a solo developer.
