I am currently a Senior Architect at Westpac New Zealand, responsible for their Consumer Finance divison which includes their cards & payments and consumer lending products.
I was most recently an Architect at Xero. I worked on a number of projects there, including the acquisition and integration of Locate Inventory, and on product development and modernisation. Prior to that, I lead the enterprise data strategy and data product architecture at a company handling around 80% of New Zealand's electronic payments, totalling over NZ$70 billion each year.

My Ph.D thesis established design and practice for the next generation of large-scale spiking neural networks, for complex pattern recognition in streaming big data. I also developed specialised hardware implementations of these spiking neural networks, in neuromorphic hardware systems like ASICs and SpiNNaker. I was an invited lecturer at the IEEE CIS Summer School on Neuromorphic and Cyborg Intelligent Systems, and won the Neural Networks Journal Best Paper Award in 2016.
