Services

Enterprise consulting with a craftsman's approach. No shortcuts, no duct tape fixes.

⚙️

AIX & Linux Administration

Deep expertise in IBM AIX and Linux environments. System hardening, performance tuning, migration planning. I've managed infrastructure at scale for nearly two decades.

🔄

CI/CD & Automation

Ansible playbooks, SemaphoreUI pipelines, infrastructure as code. Automate the boring stuff properly so your team can focus on what matters.

🏗️

Backend Architecture

System design that anticipates problems before they happen. I've been the one on call at 2am — I write systems that let you sleep.

📝

Documentation

I document everything. Your team won't need me to understand what I built. Clear, thorough, actually useful documentation is part of the deliverable.

Enterprise Automation

Not all automation needs expensive vendors. Sometimes the best tools are built by people who understand the problem.

runonall - Multi-Server Command Runner

20 years of battle-testing. Run commands across hundreds of AIX/Linux/Solaris servers with powerful filtering. Built by sysadmins, for sysadmins.

The breakthrough: Added sudo support in 2013. During an emergency security patch, one admin using runonall made zero errors while manual command line work had typos. The verdict: "We should use runonall going forward."

Saved countless hours at NZ Ministry of Health managing critical infrastructure. Proves that pragmatic bash automation can outperform expensive enterprise solutions.

About

I find the path that works — even when it's not the obvious one.

My career has been anything but linear. Twenty years as a panel beater, specialising in classic car restoration. Then twenty years as a systems administrator at New Zealand's Ministry of Health. Now I'm transitioning into blockchain applications.

The thread that connects it all: craftsmanship. Whether it's shaping metal with hammer and dolly (no filler), keeping enterprise systems running at scale, or writing smart contracts — I go deep, learn how things actually work, and do the job properly.

I'm a visual learner with a knack for pattern recognition. Show me once and I'll remember the steps decades later. I write thorough documentation because I know what it's like to inherit a system with none.

Based in Lower Hutt, New Zealand — in the Roaring Forties, where the wind never stops. Available for remote consulting worldwide.
