The system.
And the decisions
behind it.

Good engineering is shaped by its constraints. This is a place for examining the problem, the alternatives, the decision and the evidence.

Areas of work

There are no published case studies here yet. These are the areas I am interested in exploring in depth.

AI in the engineering workflow

Where AI changes how products are built, and where engineering judgement remains essential.

Modernising existing systems

The constraints, sequencing and trade-offs involved in changing platforms that people already depend on.

Reliability and ownership

How architecture, security and operational responsibility fit together in day-to-day engineering.

Software for operational work

Turning fragmented processes into useful products without losing the detail that makes the work difficult.
