# Experience
Software, mathematics, and practical systems.
## Murray Irrigation
`2023–2026`
I worked with software and SCADA systems supporting the delivery and management of water across a large irrigation network in Deniliquin, NSW. The work involved operational systems, data and integration, and careful changes to infrastructure that staff and customers depend on.
## Open source
`2015–present`
I created Nift and build native developer tools and self-hosted applications. My work spans **C++, Go**, language design, parsing, performance, cross-platform packaging, web interfaces, and security boundaries.
## Teaching & academic work
At the University of Tasmania, I lectured in real and complex analysis and quantitative methods, tutored calculus, economics, econometrics and statistics, and carried out economics research assistance. I also organised a weekly algebra seminar and served as treasurer of the 4th Australian Mathematical Sciences Student Conference.
## Google AI Challenge
`2010–2011`
I helped build the Ants challenge, including symmetric map generators, the C++ starter bot, and parts of the game specification. I placed in the top one percent globally twice, as the highest-ranked Australian in both Ants and Planet Wars.
## Education
University of Tasmania: PhD in Mathematics (2012–2015), BSc (Honours) in Mathematics (2011), and degrees in Economics and Science, studying Economics, Mathematics, and Applied Computing.
