Work Experience

• Senior Software Engineer, Alii

  Aug, 2025 - Present

  Modernising the main product from a monolithic architecture to a cloud-native, event-driven, microservice architecture

  • Simplifying application IaC, written in C# using Pulumi, and deployment to Azure by creating NuGet libraries which abstract away the complexity of configuring inter-related Azure resources (such as Entra ID, Azure Managed Identity, App Service Plans, Web Apps, Function Apps, Azure Private Link, etc.)

  • Extracting common functionality into platform services (e.g. notifications, auditing, mail) to support subsequent rearchitecture work, as well as new product development

  • Decoupling product features into independent microservices using domain-driven design

  • Standardising architectural patterns and application configuration into common libraries to simplify the development, maintenance, deployment, and monitoring of a large number of microservice applications

  • Standardising CI/CD (implemented in GitHub Actions) into common workflows. Handles rapid deployment of changes to multiple production environment, broadcasts deployment summarisation notifications, simplifies the CI/CD of existing repositories, and speeds up the development of new applications

• Senior Software Engineer, RPMGlobal

  Oct, 2023 - Jul, 20251 year 9 months

  Working in the platform team to develop cloud-native licensing and security systems, and internal infrastructure tools and services

  • Building RPMGlobal's Azure-based cloud platform, to support the company's growing suite of SaaS solutions

  • IAM web application, built using Blazor

  • Authentication and authorisation services

  • Audit logging services

  • Service discovery functionality

  • Application usage metric ingestion and aggregation services

  • RPMGlobal's next generation licensing system, integrating application usage metrics for consumption-based licensing

  • Common libraries to allow the product teams to easily and securely integrate with Azure services and RPMGlobal's cloud platform

  • Common IaC libraries, based on Pulumi and written in C#, to allow product teams to easily write their own IaC and keep it up to date with their evolving architecture

  • Built a health monitoring service for RPMGlobal's legacy licence servers, used by the company's desktop and on-premise client/server products, that monitors the health and uptime of the servers and automatically notifies the support team of any issues or status changes

  • Utilising many Azure services, including Azure AD B2C, managed identities, Azure Functions, Azure SQL, Azure Blob and Table Storage, Azure Service Bus, Azure Redis, and Azure SignalR Service

• Software Engineer, RPMGlobal

  Dec, 2015 - Oct, 20237 years 10 months

  Developed and maintained the financial budget modeling solution XERAS Enterprise

  • Migrated the product from an on-premise, single-tenant, stateful, desktop client/monolithic SOAP service architecture to a cloud-native, multi-tenant, stateless, web client/RESTful and event-driven microservice architecture, as part of RPMGlobal's roadmap towards subscription-based licensing and modern SaaS architectures for its suite of products

  • Many substantial performance improvements across the entire codebase, especially the calculation engine and the data access layer

  • Implemented many significant features, including; Plan vs Actuals, model import/export, multi-environment model logic/data synchronisation, improved algorithm for traversing a model's cell reference graph for efficient recalculation

  • Significant refactoring of the codebase during the development of a new major version, to reduce technical debt and improve maintainability and reliability

  • Eased the transition from .NET Framework to .NET Core by migrating all relevant C# projects to .NET Standard

  • Heavily contributed to implementing the complete redesign of the desktop application's user interface, with a focus on cross-platform compatibility to support the eventual migration to a Blazor web client
