Hello, I’m Ella.

About me

Engineering, with curiosity

I like understanding
how things work.
And how they feel to use.

Software engineer at Aetheron, building AI digital workers. I’m a quick learner who loves automation and thinking problems through from the architecture down.

My QA background keeps me detail-focused, and you’ll often find me at tech meetups.

How I work

A warm, curious driver

Energy, ideas and a high bar.

  • People energise me. I’m usually the one starting the thread and thanking whoever helped.
  • Full of ideas, better as a team. I love bouncing ideas around and building them together.
  • I love helping. I offer a hand before I’m asked and check in on people.
  • I ask why. I learn new tools fast, then pick the simplest thing that works.
  • I own what I take on. If I say I’ll do it, it gets done.
  • I check before I ship. Every fact gets verified, and every lesson becomes a rule.
  • Confident, and generous with credit. I back what I can do and thank the people who helped.
  • I meet people where they are. I adapt how I communicate and report to what each person needs.
  • Outside work: reading, sport, organising get-togethers, art and tech meetups.
