About / A little context
I like making useful things—and understanding how they work.
I’m Aiden, based in Melbourne. My day-to-day work is mechanical design, but my interests tend to cross boundaries: physical products, manufacturing, software, automation, and the systems behind them. This site is where those threads meet.

By day
I work as a Senior Mechanical Design Engineer, designing commercial vehicle bodies and supporting the path from an idea to production. I enjoy the mix of practical constraints, precise detail, and real-world feedback.
Outside the job description
I often reach for code when a repetitive process can be made clearer or faster. That has led me to build small tools, explore automation, and experiment with data systems—not because everything needs software, but because the right tool can change how a problem feels.
Why this site exists
This is not only a résumé online. It is a place to keep projects, videos, notes, and whatever I find worth sharing. Some posts will be technical; others may simply be about something I am learning, thinking about, or enjoying.
