It is a multi-tenanted platform that brings Billing, Payments, and Subscriptions into the realm of modern Apps. Billrush has a Particular Focus on Open Banking Initiatives, we see that as the future and are building in the capability nativelyAs The Head of Global Engineering and Operations, my position encompassed all facets of CTO, Systems Architect and Solutions Architect Roles in a cross-functional team where we looked at the platform as a whole and designed it from the ground up to be robust, stable, expandable and very importantly, Cloud Vendor Agnostic. The system could be deployed on any Cloud Provider as well as Bare Metal Servers.Built on a Kubernetes (1.30) infrastructure, using fully declarative deployment processes, ( some we wrote ourselves ), the platform is scalable and robust, using the latest, modern tech, including:Kubernetes, RabbitMq, PostgreSQL, TimeseriesDB, S3 Storage, Vault, Verdaccio, Ubuntu 24.3 LTS, teleport, Grafana, loki, Mimir, Prometheus, Keycloak, Infiosical, kubeshark, metallb, odoo, openebs, OpenTelemetry, CertManager, secrets replication, camel-k, Hyperswitch to name a few ...Front ends were written in the latest Angular, targeted as an in-cluster pod deployment, or deployed globally via Cloudflare.We paid particular attention to the operational, deployment, reporting and monitoring aspects of the platform, Our view is that building an MVP first without the proper tooling and support infrastructure in place was like building a house on a deck of cards. We found early on that this approach produced many dividends in the development and operational management aspects of the platform and permitted us to be confident of our platform and capabilities when the time came for Go-Live. AN additional benefit was the reduced level of staffing required to manage the system, as we focused on automation as a priorirty form Day One

C# API, MSSQL Database, Mobile AppAt MyOrigins, we’re committed to helping consumers know where their products come from. Our first challenge? Addressing the historical lack of transparency in Merino supply chain practices. We believe that you, the end consumer, have a right to know where and how your Merino wool garment has sourced and then made.We trace the journey of your Merino fibre, so you can be confident that your garment isn’t the result of inferior blending or even outright substitution with fibre located far from the apparel source.How do we do this? We start at the farm, and trace the fibre all the way to the end consumer. Our growers are committed to producing wool from happy, healthy sheep, investing in a balanced production system, and maintaining sustainable land management practices.Brands recognise that consumer trust and loyalty increases with transparency, traceability and a confirmed chain of custody. Why not tell customers the story of their product: where it comes from, who makes it, and the care that goes into it at every stage of production?
