Distributed systems & research engineering
Architecture, protocol design, technical feasibility, and research-to-production planning for systems that span organisations, trust domains, and technology stacks.
I advise research teams, public institutions, and technology organisations on secure distributed systems, interoperability, and emerging standards—connecting rigorous research with architecture, prototypes, and implementation.
Architecture, protocol design, technical feasibility, and research-to-production planning for systems that span organisations, trust domains, and technology stacks.
Cross-chain architecture, gateways, digital-asset transfer, and interoperability evaluation, including work on the IETF Secure Asset Transfer Protocol (SATP).
Threat modelling, trust assumptions, protocol review, identity and access control, and privacy-aware design for distributed and decentralised infrastructure.
Architectures and integration patterns for agentic systems, with a focus on the Model Context Protocol (MCP), secure tool use, and interactions across organisational boundaries.
Technology assessment, standards-oriented design, technical roadmaps, and independent review for teams making consequential architecture decisions.
Proofs of concept, implementation support, technical specifications, white papers, and research communication for specialist and executive audiences.
I work best on technically demanding problems where security, interoperability, and real-world deployment constraints meet. An engagement can begin with a focused review or workshop, then continue into architecture, specification, prototyping, or implementation support as needed.
Share the problem, current constraints, and the outcome you need.
