I'm back in Sydney for a little bit, joining @_Arrayah for the next few weeks, building robots and applying the things i've learnt in the past few years in the cybersec to the world of robotics & physical ai. a little bit about my journey this past year: // Nov 2025 // first discovered hacker houses in Sydney existed. // May 2026 // joined the chapter 3 residency building after my 9-5 and on weekends (looking at what the future of learning should look like). // June 2026 // resigned from my corporate tech job and flew to sf to get a different perspective on where the future of technology is headed. // Aug 2026 // flew back to Sydney, started tinkering with electronics/robotics. // Sept 2026 // Joining the arrayah residency, this time, full time, building robots and continuing my research on what security & compliance in robotics & physcial ai should look like. // Nov 2026 // ✍🏻 -- Following your intuition is hard, especially when your friends are all senior engineers at banks & big tech companies. Maybe it's a path i'll go back to one day, but for now I feel like i'm on a path that feels right to me 💛

Hey #sf 👋🏻 🔻Lil intro: > I’m a data/cybersec engineer > 2024 grad from the university of technology Sydney (UTS) (studied data eng) > used to build/launch rockets in my uni days > chapter 3 resident @_Arrayah (truely believe in their philosophy of ‘you can just do things’) 🔻 My philosophy/hot takes: > Resumes as a way to pitch yourself hasn’t changed since the 1400s > We’re all just using AI to both customise resumes and screen candidates (often results in people just lying on their resume) > Interviewing someone for a tech role is just as stressful as being interviewed > Hiring is actually about who you know rather than ‘am I qualified for this’ > In 2026, upskilling in tech means subscribing to 10+ different newsletters, scrolling x, reddit and socials or creating customised skills to give updates of the state of tech which is changing everyday > there’s a lack of support/education to support future tech roles (think quantum, cybersec (llm/ai security), etc) despite access to knowledge being easier and more accessible than ever. 🔻 Are you: > interviewing for roles at the moment? > hiring? > struggling to keep up with changes in the tech world that effect you? I’d love to grab a coffee whilst I’m in town!
