Services.
AI engineering and automation consulting for Brisbane & Gold Coast teams.
Whether you need to test an AI opportunity, automate an internal process, connect business systems or build a production-ready AI product, I can help design the workflow, build the software and get it into the hands of your team.
RAG & knowledge systems
Searchable internal knowledge assistants using vector databases, retrieval pipelines and carefully designed prompts so your team can ask questions across documents, policies, projects and customer data.
Workflow automation
Automations that remove repetitive admin, connect disconnected tools and turn manual steps into reliable workflows across your CRM, spreadsheets, email, databases and internal systems.
Salesforce & system integrations
Salesforce development, API integrations and reporting pipelines that bring sales, operations and customer data into one usable workflow.
Custom AI software
Production-ready AI features and applications built with modern web, backend and cloud infrastructure — from MVP through to scalable internal or customer-facing products.
Mobile app development
Native and cross-platform mobile apps for iOS and Android — built with Swift, Kotlin or React Native — designed, shipped to the App Store and connected to the same backends, AI features and business systems as the rest of your stack.
Works.

FAQ.
Frequently asked questions.
What does an AI engineer consultant do?
An AI engineer consultant helps businesses design and build practical AI systems, including AI agents, workflow automations, RAG knowledge assistants, integrations and custom software. The focus is on turning business problems into reliable systems that teams can use every day.
Do you work with Brisbane and Gold Coast businesses?
Yes. I'm based on the Gold Coast and work with businesses across the Gold Coast, Brisbane, Queensland and Australia. Most work can be delivered remotely, with local strategy and implementation support where useful.
Can you help us work out where AI should be used in our business?
Yes. The AI audit is designed to review your workflows, systems and data, then identify practical opportunities where AI agents, automations or custom software could save time, improve visibility or reduce manual work.
What kinds of AI systems can you build?
Common projects include internal AI assistants, document search and RAG systems, Salesforce automations, customer support workflows, data pipelines, reporting automation, agentic workflows and AI features inside existing products.
Do you only provide advice, or can you build the system too?
I can do both. I can help with strategy and roadmap work, but my main value is designing and building the actual software — from prototype to production-ready internal system or customer-facing product.
