Hi, I’m Jon.
25 years across data, engineering, product, and leadership in Sydney, London, and Munich. Fixed-scope, fixed-price strategy engagements grounded in a questionnaire-led process that aligns business outcomes with technical reality.*
*Custom engagements available, pricing after discovery.
Scale-ups need data foundations and AI capability, but fragmentation across tools, technologies, and data creates drag. I identify the technologies that best fit your business and desired outcomes. My approach starts with a structured questionnaire, then delivers a decision, roadmap, and cost/benefit view you can act on.
Clear decisions, practical roadmaps, measurable value—without the vendor bias or implementation upsell.*
*Personally vetted implementation partners available on request.

Discuss a Custom Engagement25 years bridging business and technology across data and AI. I translate what leadership needs into what engineers can build—and explain technical reality back to leadership. Both sides understand my recommendations.
Hands-on experience evaluating Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, and Grok across multiple business domains. I've built AI agents and tested models extensively. Independent evaluation based on your needs, not vendor marketing.
Fixed-scope strategy engagements built on a repeatable questionnaire and evidence-based evaluation. You get my 25 years of experience—directly—without paying for implementation.
I've spent 25 years building data platforms and leading analytics teams across Oceania and Europe. From government systems serving millions to enterprise scale-ups, I've seen what works and what doesn't.
I bring hands-on AI experience to every engagement: independently evaluating models for specific use-cases including image-generation, vibe-coding, chatbots, agentic AI and more. I also use AI in my own business to increase efficiency and minimise cost for my clients.
My approach is different: I start with business objectives, assess your team's capabilities, then recommend technology that fits both. No vendor pitches. No implementation upsell. Just strategic guidance grounded in reality.
