Work Experience
Curia(direct since Oct 2026; via Remotebase Mar 2025 – Oct 2026)
Remote
Legal-tech SaaS platform used by property conveyancers to automate contract review, document analysis, and report generation across the Australian property market.
Senior Full-Stack Engineer
Mar 2025 – Present- Built the matters module and added Smokeball as a second CRM integration behind a CRM-agnostic adapter, with OAuth, webhook-driven matter updates, paginated reconciliation paced under the CRM's rate limit, transactional matter operations, and webhook signature checks that reject requests when no secret is configured.
- Redesigned CRM contact sync from importing the whole CRM address book on connect to importing contacts on demand when they are linked to a review or matter. Reconciliation now fetches only linked contacts, each link records why it is kept, unused records were purged, and missing-contact retries run as a durable background task with backoff, so the platform holds less client personal data.
- Built an AI assistant for the report template editor on AWS Bedrock: a streaming agent loop with tool use proposes structured template edits that users preview as diffs and accept or reject. Proposals are validated against the editor schema and field catalogue and applied all-or-nothing with race-safe accepts, and the system prompt is split into prompt-cache tiers.
- Designed and built a registry-driven preflight validation engine in three layers (required documents, source-vs-summary field matching, document currency and field validation) to replace the monolithic NSW and VIC checks. Ran it alongside the old code with parity tests, cut over one state at a time, then removed the monoliths.
- Contributed to the platform's dynamic report template system - worked on draft/publish workflows, version history, conditional rule evaluation, per-state template configuration, and report calculation consolidation.
- Contributed to a WYSIWYG report template editor built on Tiptap, implementing custom Node extensions for conditional content blocks and dynamic merge tags, visibility condition builders, and editor preview modes.
- Designed transfer duty and surcharge duty calculation engines with database-driven rule storage, allowing business rules to be updated without code changes.
- Built OAuth-based CRM integration (TriConvey) with token management, rate limiting, automated contact synchronisation, and soft-delete handling.

AI-powered recruitment platform connecting employers with candidates using automated matching and interview tools, serving millions of candidate profiles.
Software Engineering Manager
Jan 2023 – Feb 2025- Iterated on 'Iris', the AI candidate recommendation engine, through multiple algorithm versions, migrating from ChromaDB to Weaviate to Elasticsearch and reducing search latency from ~60 seconds to near-real-time across millions of profiles.
- Built a multi-channel outreach campaign system from the ground up supporting LinkedIn (SalesRobot) and email (Nylas) channels with multi-step sequences, scheduling with timezone support, and real-time campaign analytics.
- Designed and executed a zero-downtime storage migration from AWS S3 to GCS for a platform serving ~6 million users, replacing the proposed bulk database update with a backend URL transformation layer to eliminate migration risk and reduce cross-cloud infrastructure costs.
- Built the applicant tracking system with configurable pipeline stages, automated status transitions, and event-driven triggers linking outreach, AI interviews, and job applications.
- Led and mentored engineers building an AI-powered recruitment platform serving millions of candidate profiles across the MENA region.
Senior Software Engineer
Jan 2022 – Dec 2022- Architected and built the initial version of 'Iris', an AI-powered candidate recommendation engine using OpenAI embeddings and ChromaDB vector database, establishing the foundation for matching job posts against millions of candidate profiles.
- Built a rate-limit-resilient AI service layer with round-robin key rotation across 30+ OpenAI API keys, automatic retries with exponential backoff, and centralised request management, enabling reliable high-throughput AI processing across real-time and background workloads.
- Built subscription cancellation flows handling cascading disenrollment from learning paths and masterclasses, and implemented credits carry-over logic on subscription renewal within the platform's Stripe billing system.
- Built the Learning Management System (learning paths, masterclasses) with cohort-based programs, task management, live session scheduling with ICS calendar events, and certificate generation.
- 2nd highest contributor across the entire codebase (~1,984 of ~10,100 total commits) over 3 years.
