Former Chief Technology Officer · Power Ledger

Platform engineering, smart meter integration, field pilot deployments

Led product engineering and operations responsible for converting protocol designs into deployable software used in commercial pilots. Managed delivery of gateway software, meter integration libraries and settlement engine components that translated metered energy flows into tokenized settlements. The delivered code established how POWR tokens were credited, escrowed and released during peer settlements and auctions, and therefore determined on‑site token velocity and utility. Coordinated testing, QA and security hardening for live deployments, liaising with field engineers, utility partners and auditors to remediate integration issues. Those remediation steps—firmware updates, oracle reconfigurations and settlement rollback logic—directly affected uptime and reliability, which in turn influenced user adoption rates and transactional throughput for POWR in pilot markets. Published deployment reports and technical notes documenting architecture decisions and lessons learned from trials. Those artifacts were used by partners and exchanges to assess operational risk and by the core team to iterate token usage models, so engineering choices under his oversight had a lasting effect on POWR’s practical utility and market acceptance.
