Out in the field
IT missions
The jobs that don't come with a screenshot. We've built a lot of UniFi networks (WiFi, cameras, door access, building-to-building links, all running as one system) and moved a lot of email, the one thing a business truly cannot lose. Client names stay private.
Office building, Melbourne
UniFi smart building: WiFi, cameras, doors & intercom
An office building where the front door, the cameras and the WiFi all needed sorting. Instead of three vendors with three monthly bills, it went in as one UniFi system. A video intercom with face recognition at the entrance, door control managed from an app rather than a drawer of spare keys, cameras across the building, and access points for wall-to-wall WiFi. One controller runs the lot: letting someone new in, or cutting off a lost credential, takes a minute, not a locksmith.

Warehouse site, Melbourne
Two buildings, one network: wireless bridge & dual-WAN
A warehouse operation split across two buildings a short distance apart, with no way to share one network short of trenching the driveway. A rooftop-to-rooftop wireless bridge joined them instead, no digging and no conduit, so both buildings run as a single network. Cameras and floodlights cover the yard, access points cover the floor, and a dual-WAN gateway fails over to a second internet connection automatically, so a dropped link doesn't stop work.

Pub & bistro, Melbourne's inner west
Full venue fitout: WiFi, cameras & network
A busy pub where the tech has to keep up with service. We built the network underneath, put WiFi through the whole venue and cameras through the building, got the bar and kitchen gear talking to it, and trained the staff front of house and back. One venue, one system, one number to call when anything plays up.

Events company, Melbourne
Built the network, stayed on as the IT crew
An events business runs on deadlines, and the tech has to keep up. We built their network and we've maintained it ever since, along with the day-to-day: general troubleshooting, IT support whenever something misbehaves, and their Microsoft 365 admin. When someone joins, we set them up; when someone leaves, their access leaves with them. Less a contractor they call, more the IT department they never had to hire.

Nursing agency, Melbourne
Everything IT, from 365 to repairs
A nursing agency with staff always coming and going, which makes email access a revolving door that has to be managed properly. We set up their Microsoft 365 and run it end to end: onboarding new starters, offboarding leavers, keeping signatures consistent across the team, and the general IT support in between. We also handle the hardware side: sourcing and supplying gear when they need it, repairing it when it breaks. One supplier for the lot instead of five.

Limousine hire, Melbourne
The bookings inbox that can't go down
A limo hire business where the bookings inbox is the business. If email breaks, the phone might as well be off the hook. We run their Fastmail on the company's own domain and keep it renewed, working and off their minds, and we're the number they call for everything else tech: the general IT support that keeps a small fleet moving without anyone in-house.

Bed & breakfast, Macedon Ranges
A country stay's whole online life
A B&B whose entire online presence, the website guests find and the inbox their bookings land in, runs through us. We built their website and set up Fastmail on the property's own domain, and when email misbehaves on a laptop or a phone, the owner doesn't go googling fixes. One call, it's sorted, and they're back to hosting.

Creative agency, Melbourne
Fastmail → Google Workspace
An agency operating across several domains, with a tangle of aliases built up over years of rebrands, and mail that had started landing in customers' junk folders. We consolidated the DNS so every record lived in one place, straightened out the aliases, fixed the deliverability so mail actually arrived, then moved the whole thing to Google Workspace, with the cutover run after hours so nobody lost a working day.

Logistics operator, Victoria
Google Workspace → Microsoft 365
A five-person operation moving off Google and onto Microsoft 365: full mailbox history migrated, new licences provisioned and configured in the 365 admin centre, and every machine in the office set up properly against the new tenant rather than left for staff to work out themselves. The kind of job where success means nobody notices anything on the Monday except a different logo on their inbox.

Country hotel & pub, regional Victoria
Google Workspace from scratch
A historic country pub that needed its email to look like the sign above the door: proper named mailboxes on the hotel's own domain for management, accounts and front of house. We set up Google Workspace, and we still run it: billing, user admin, the lot, so nobody behind the bar ever has to think about it, and when staff change, access changes with them. Same pub trusts us with its POS and WiFi. That's what happens when the email just works.
