ACS Accreditations

Master

of IT, AI Specialisation

AI Engineer and Full-Stack Software Developer with 5+ years of production experience building and deploying machine learning systems and software products in live environments. I have personally built and shipped 14+ software products, from AI-powered clinical intelligence suites to real-time data platforms, each one architected, designed, and deployed end-to-end.

I hold a Master of IT specialising in Artificial Intelligence, nine ACS professional accreditations, and deep expertise in TypeScript, Python, Next.js, React, TensorFlow, and cloud infrastructure. My full professional background, certifications, and project portfolio are available on my LinkedIn profile.

I don't just discuss what is possible. I build it.

Steven.com Intelligence is a demonstration of what I bring to the table: the ability to take a complex vision, including real-time data visualisation, portfolio intelligence, AI-driven strategic insights, and content command centre capabilities, then ship it as a polished, production-grade product. Every line of code in this platform was written to show, not tell.

Full-Stack AI Engineering

From ML model integration to production deployment, I build the full stack. No gaps, no handoffs needed.

Real-Time System Architecture

WebSocket streaming, live transcription pipelines, and real-time AI inference, built for production scale.

Product Design & UX

I design and build interfaces that feel premium. Every interaction in this app was crafted with intention.

Ship Fast, Ship Right

This entire platform was architected, designed, and built from scratch, ready for deployment on Vercel.
