work
(01)
Carrier-grade direct-carrier-billing and identity platform across 280+ telco integrations — re-architected end to end onto Temporal-orchestrated rails at 10k+ TPS.
(02)
Institutional real-estate tokenisation on ERC-3643 — engine, compliance, MPC custody and KYC, built in five months and Halborn-audited.
(03)
Real-time behavioural analytics and an agentic audience engine over billions of daily intent signals — sold with Present. to a strategic acquirer.
(04)
A zero-trust platform for federated AI agents, and an open standard for signed AI-to-AI queries with reference implementations in three languages.
(05)
A Telegram-native tokenised commerce platform — NFT-backed luxury drops, burn-to-claim redemption, dual-chain settlement across TON and Tempo.
(06)
SIM-layer authentication on the telco footprint — silent network authentication, identity verification and MFA, from concept to launch.
(07)
Vertically integrated urban AI compute — sovereign bare-metal GPU and inference capacity in cities, with behind-the-meter power and waste-heat recovery.
(08)
A production algorithmic-trading engine for Polymarket's order book — five alpha strategies unified behind a fifteen-gate risk architecture.
(09)
One command turns a product spec into a fully configured multi-agent Claude Code environment — model-routed sprints and an eight-wave hardening gate.
(10)
A HIPAA-conscious fulfillment rail for telehealth pharmacies — every order enters from any surface, is held for licensed-provider approval, and dispatched exactly once across the pharmacies a brand already uses.
(11)
The whole back office of an alternative-investment fund — deals, a DAG modelling engine, valuation, fund administration with waterfalls and per-LP capital accounts, and a white-labelled LP portal — on one tenant-scoped platform, driveable from web, API, CLI and an MCP agent layer.

Ventures
& roles
Led a 10-person product & engineering org with P&L across three product lines of a carrier-grade payments platform. Re-architected the core carrier-billing rails, launched a SIM-authentication product, and secured a $50M Walmart contract via Newavo.
Founded and built an institutional real-estate tokenisation platform in five months — tokenisation engine, automated compliance, MPC custody and KYC. Raised $50M in debt from Apollo, passed Halborn audits, and signed the first two institutional clients before launch.
Grew a data-and-analytics brand-strategy consultancy to $5M ARR with clients including Pantone, Genesis Motors, Four Seasons, Cartier and Sequoia — then sold it, with the NOW behavioural-analytics platform, to a strategic acquirer.
A federated platform for deploying secure AI agents across enterprise data on a zero-trust architecture. Authored MFQP, an open standard for signed AI-to-AI queries, with Ed25519 attestation, MCP interoperability, and reference implementations in Python, TypeScript and Go.
A Telegram-native tokenised commerce platform — luxury drops sold as TEP-62 NFTs with burn-to-claim redemption, dual-chain settlement across TON and Tempo, and a machine-payments gateway for agent commerce. 18 smart contracts and a 12-worker backend.
SIM-layer authentication built on a footprint of 280+ telco integrations — silent network authentication, identity verification and MFA — taken from concept to launch as a new product line.
Vertically integrated urban AI compute — sovereign bare-metal GPU and in-metro inference, paired with behind-the-meter renewable power and waste-heat recovery. Built the corporate platform, access-request flow and a counsel-ready legal suite.
A production algorithmic-trading engine for Polymarket's CLOB — Bayesian cross-market arbitrage, volatility-adjusted market making, a 12-model LLM ensemble and whale tracking, unified behind a fifteen-gate risk architecture. Python strategy logic with Rust execution.
A one-command tool that turns a product spec into a fully configured multi-agent Claude Code environment — eight specialised agents, model-routed sprint execution, and an eight-wave hardening gate across Python, TypeScript, Rust and Go.
A HIPAA-conscious fulfillment rail for telehealth pharmacies — normalise any order, hold it for licensed-provider approval, and dispatch it exactly once across the pharmacies a brand already uses. A Turborepo / NestJS / Next.js monorepo with pharmacy-agnostic adapters, an append-only audit chain, and an MCP server exposing the rail as safe agent tools.
Cross-border structured finance across energy, infrastructure and advanced technology — $1B+ in deal flow, multi-tranche credit, and C-suite / MD-level relationships with sovereign funds, DFIs, credit insurers and tier-one banks. And the platform the fund runs on: a multi-tenant alternative-investment system covering deals, a DAG modelling engine, valuation, full fund administration (capital calls, distributions, waterfalls, NAV, per-LP capital accounts) and a white-labelled LP portal — driveable from web, API, CLI and an MCP agent layer.
Designed and built the company's operations, data, investor and web presence end to end as a one-person build; now leading go-to-market strategy for an early-stage consumer-health company.
A gaming platform pitting fans against streamers, with a spectator prediction layer. Founder — product, technology and platform architecture.
Advanced snow technology. Secured a $10M pre-seed term sheet and three resort LOIs before putting the venture on hold.
A cluster of founder projects: Wavestar (space & finance, propulsion), Nitro (multi-LLM commerce intelligence) and OnlyBank (a stablecoin-native neobank). $10M+ raised in pre-seed equity across projects.
VP Strategy at WPP's global creative agency. Led the Salesforce Global Partner Marketing Campaign, turning $500K of spend into $10M in attributed revenue.
Launched and ran the Australian market for a social photo app with 16M MAU — zero to 1M+ users and $0 to $500K revenue in year one, with brand campaigns for Google, Topshop and Louis Vuitton.
About
I build and ship mission-critical software at the edge of fintech and AI. A founder with two exits, an operator at enterprise scale, and an engineer who is still in the details.
I learn arcane, regulated domains fast — carrier billing, tokenised securities, structured finance — and work the way founders need a technical partner to: close, candid, progressively owning strategy and roadmap while staying hands-on.
