Experience
InfinityIT — Technical Consultant
2023 – Present

As the technical lead in a small, high-ownership environment, I am responsible for the full lifecycle of internal and client-facing systems. My work involves scripting automation, application development, and direct client support, as well as representing the company in business and networking groups. Highlights:

- Refactored deployment workflows using PowerShell for better error handling, maintainability, and observability within Datto RMM.
- Built a fully automated, brand-aligned blog publishing pipeline using n8n, GPT-4o Mini, DALL·E 2, and the WordPress API, reducing post cost by over 90% while maintaining editorial quality.
- Developed websites, handled graphic design and branding assets, and supported customer-facing web infrastructure.
- Act as the primary representative for the Gisborne branch at BNI and Chamber of Commerce events, leading technical communication, networking, and community engagement on behalf of the company.
