My professional journey — from design to full-stack development, automation, and AI systems.
Full-Stack Developer & Marketing Specialist
Inspire Kitchens · Feb 2026 – Present
Sole technical hire for a 30-person premium kitchen manufacturer. I own the full digital stack: web development, CRM integration, automations, and SEO. I built and maintain 13 internal tools deployed across Vercel and a self-hosted VPS to automate their operations.
Rebuilt the marketing website (inspirekitchens.co.nz) from Shopify to a custom Next.js application. I engineered regional SEO landing pages, a dedicated B2B "For Builders" portal, and lead-capture forms that pipe directly into the CRM.
Built Jobman Calendar: a real-time drag-and-drop planning tool that mirrors ERP jobs via secure webhooks into a Supabase database. I wrote a custom orchestration algorithm to cascade task dates automatically, entirely replacing their manual scheduling system.
Engineered the reporting ecosystem: a defect-tracking dashboard, an interactive competitor intelligence map using Playwright-scraped data, and a centralized SEO dashboard with automated PDF exports.
Automated the operational pipeline: synced Jobman ERP and Xero financial data directly into live tracking sheets and pushed weekly rendered reporting cards into Microsoft Teams, eliminating four hours of manual work every week.
Built supporting infrastructure, including a materials search tool, a lead generation pipeline via Trigger.dev, and a password-gated internal wiki mapping every automation.
Configured the hosting and databases for all 13 tools (Vercel, Supabase, PostgreSQL, Redis). I wrote a shared authentication system to secure them using HMAC-signed cookies.
