Willed

Software Engineer, AI & Security Platform

Enterprise SIEM for a 170k+ user platform

Detection visibility across the platform, SOC 2-aligned controls and evidence, reduced account-takeover risk, and ~30% better frontend performance.

Problem, approach & business impact
Problem
A legal-tech platform serving 170,000+ users needed real detection visibility, SOC 2 readiness, and hardened authentication without slowing product delivery.
Approach
Architected a custom enterprise SIEM with event-driven security pipelines, centralized alerting, and notification routing; built agentic security review and engineering workflows; enforced MFA and account lockout; led the Quasar-to-Nuxt.js frontend migration.
Business impact
Security posture that stands up to enterprise and compliance scrutiny while product velocity holds.

Referrin Health

Contract Software Engineer, Platform & AI Product

Healthcare referral platform to controlled beta

Core workflows stable across the 5,000+ provider network, safer release cycles, and AI-assisted intake reducing manual referral processing.

Problem, approach & business impact
Problem
A healthcare referral SaaS had to move from development into controlled alpha/beta across a network of 5,000+ providers and case managers, with the rollout safety healthcare demands.
Approach
Owned major platform engineering: stabilized referral, organization, provider, waitlist, and case-manager workflows; established staging/production environments, CI/CD, and E2E testing standards; built Smartforms AI modules for document handling and referral routing; hardened runtime secrets and encrypted configuration.
Business impact
A product healthcare operators can adopt: compliant, predictable, and faster at moving patients through referrals.

BitWork Solutions

Lead Software Engineer

Promoted to lead in May 2025.

Badge Guru, a computer vision pipeline for manufacturing

Emblem processing cut from 10 minutes to 30 seconds (~20x). Automated, repeatable, and no longer the bottleneck on the line.

Problem, approach & business impact
Problem
Manual emblem processing capped manufacturing throughput: every badge design took about 10 minutes of hand work before it could go to production.
Approach
Built the computer vision R&D behind scanner automation: an OpenCV rendering pipeline with ArUco marker detection, glare reduction, and vectorization that turns a physical scan into production-ready assets.
Business impact
More units through the manufacturing line per shift without adding headcount.

A relief emblem is scanned, its contours are detected, and the vector asset lifts off.

8balldesigner.com

8BallDesigner.com, ecommerce serving thousands of customers

Thousands of customers served with dependable checkout and shipment operations on a stabilized platform.

Problem, approach & business impact
Problem
The store needed ecommerce reliable enough for a customer base in the thousands. Checkout, shipping, and auth could not be weak links.
Approach
Led engineering delivery across a lean frontend, backend, mobile, and DevOps team: architected Stripe/GoShippo ecommerce workflows, reworked auth with NextAuth + OAuth2/OIDC, and introduced blue-green deployments with rollback.
Business impact
An ecommerce store the business scales revenue on, with deploys that no longer risk downtime.

Infrastructure I build in public

Shipped tools with commits, releases, benchmarks, and packages you can inspect, not weekend demos.

Design systems × Agent tooling

Snapline

Keeps AI-generated UI on the design system

A deterministic TSX scanner (TypeScript compiler API, no LLM) wired into Claude Code lifecycle hooks. It blocks agents mid-loop with exact repair contracts and gates completion until severe design-system drift is fixed.

Benchmark & tradeoffs

0 of 30 runs drifted with Snapline in the July 2026 Claude Code experiment. Historical fixture evidence; repair loops added about 15% median wall time versus the raw agent.

Context infrastructure × Developer tools

Grape

Context transport for AI coding agents

A repo-backed context continuity layer: dependency-tracked context artifacts compiled from the repository, per-session ledgers of what an agent has already seen, and MCP/CLI surfaces that send only what is new, changed, pinned, or stale.

Benchmark & tradeoffs

31–52% less body-token context on the second turn across three unchanged-repository fixtures, recorded June 2026. These are fixture results, not production savings.

About

Gaille presenting LSTM architecture to an audience at AI/DATA MiniConf in Cebu
Sharing the work / AI/DATA MiniConf, Cebu · 2025

Self-taught engineer from Cebu, shipping production software since I was 17.

I was the youngest engineer hired at BitWork Solutions and later led the team. My work spans two continents: security platform engineering for Willed in Australia and healthcare platform work for Referrin Health in the US.

I care about systems that hold up under scrutiny: SIEM pipelines, sandboxed code execution, agent tooling with published benchmarks. I write about what breaks along the way.
