Hi, I'm Teddy
About
I'm driven by understanding how complex technical systems work, diagnosing why they fail, and engineering solutions that perform in the real world.
My background in corporate IT has given me hands-on experience troubleshooting infrastructure, investigating connectivity and system behaviour, and supporting interconnected systems. Through Python development and scientific computing, I've also explored how software can be used to analyse problems, automate tasks, and implement technical solutions.
I'm now developing my expertise in robotics and autonomous systems engineering, focusing on motion planning, navigation, control systems, and robot learning. I'm particularly interested in how algorithms translate into real behaviour: how a robot plans a path, responds to obstacles, estimates its position, and navigates under physical and computational constraints.
I approach engineering through investigation, experimentation, and measurable results. My goal is to build a deep understanding of autonomous systems and develop solutions that are reliable, efficient, and useful beyond a simulation or proof of concept.

Production systems I have designed, built and run — commerce, school management, infrastructure and network tooling — plus the experiments that got me here.
A white-label online store: one Django API runs a Next.js storefront, a staff admin and a Flutter app, rebranded for each shop from a single settings record.
A multi-school REST API covering admissions, attendance, exams, fees, timetables, library and transport, designed for web and mobile clients.
Real-time printer fleet monitoring for a network operations centre — SNMP polling on Celery with a live HTMX dashboard.
An applicant tracking system: a careers site where candidates apply online, and an HR portal that moves them through the hiring pipeline.
Picks the key details out of PDF invoices and writes them to clean Excel sheets instead of retyping them by hand.
Crop monitoring and decision support for smarter farming, built with Python and machine learning.
