Projects

Projects I've led or built. Each case study covers what the project does and the decisions behind it.

Data platforms

Data protection and privacy model

One shared model, not each app, protects personal and financial columns. The privacy team picks the private columns. Each user group reads the matching copy.

Data platforms

Hierarchical access

Each person sees the rows their place in the sales structure allows. Benchmarks widen that view to the whole sales team, with no hand-kept list.

Cost and FinOps

Cloud cost

Mapping the cloud bill to the pipelines and teams behind it. Then cutting compute and storage with lighter engines, less indexing and retention rules.

AI agents

Analytics AI agents

Agents that find duplicate metrics, review code changes before people do, and draft missing metric descriptions.

AI agents

KPI assistant

An assistant that finds, explains, debugs and creates KPIs and charts from questions in plain words. A fixed set of test chats decides when it is ready.

AI agents

KPI metadata drafts

A summer intern project. An AI pipeline drafts the metadata for each KPI. People review and approve every draft before anyone uses it.

Built in my own time. Source code and live demos where available.

Agents

Trellis

Moves a team's work across a board, with an AI agent at each step. People approve every gate and merge every change.

Design systems

Ward

A React 19 component library for my apps. One shared file sets its colours, spacing and type. Each change must pass contrast, keyboard and clean install checks.

Agents

Rook

Runs AI coding agents from the first failing journey test to the release. Agents judge the work, code runs the rest, and each story keeps its cache warm.
