Hello, I'm

WILL DRUMMOND

I'm a Forward Deployed Engineer for AI & automation

I sit with the people doing the work, find the problem worth solving, and ship the software that fixes it: AI agents, automations and web apps that teams use every day. Eight years across civil/water consulting and software, now Digital Technology Engineer at CMP Consulting (Vysarn). Outside work I run my own AI operating system of 60+ apps and the software behind a 3D printing business.

How I Work

Forward Deployed

Discover

Embed With the Team

I start where the work happens: sitting with engineers, drafters and managers, mapping how a job really gets done and finding the hours that go nowhere. Then I pick the problem that pays back first and build for it.

Agentic AI

AI Agents That Do the Work

Agents grounded in a team's own documents and tools: RAG over design standards, Claude agents that run on a schedule, MCP connections to email, calendars and files, and a human in the loop wherever a mistake would cost.

Ship

Ship Fast, Then Iterate

Working software in front of users early, then shaped by what they say. Web apps and APIs on Cloudflare Workers, Pages and D1, with checks in CI so a quick change doesn't break what already works.

Cloudflare Workers D1 TypeScript CI

Integration

System Integration & Migration

Connecting platforms that don't naturally talk to each other. Tenant migrations, API integrations and workflow orchestration across Microsoft 365, Azure, Google Workspace, Stripe, Etsy and systems like NetSuite.

Automation

Power Platform & Reporting

Where a team already lives in Microsoft 365, I build there: Power Automate flows, Logic Apps and Power BI reports that remove manual steps and give managers live visibility.

Industry

Water & Civil Engineering Tech

A civil engineer first. Six years designing water and urban infrastructure means I can talk with clients in their own terms about RFI registers, pipe networks and project delivery.

AI Agents

Eren: a personal AI operating system

My own second brain and app platform: 60+ web apps over one Cloudflare D1 database, Claude agents on schedules that write a daily brief and file what I capture, a phone agent, and MCP links to Gmail, Calendar and Drive. Smoke tests run in CI on every push.

Web App Product

Photocard Holder Factory

A live browser app where customers design a custom 3D-printable photocard holder and export a multi-colour 3MF. Google sign-in, Stripe licences and a guided onboarding. Built and run end to end for my 3D printing business, Echoes of Idols.

Web App 3D / CAD

EchoesCAD

Browser-based CAD tool that converts SVG artwork into 3D-printable multi-layer geometry. Built with TypeScript, three.js, and CSG boolean operations. Features per-layer extrusion editing and STL/3MF export for multi-material printers.

Web App Gamification

Water Engineer Simulator

A 4-phase interactive engineering game built for a careers expo. Players tackle horizontal alignment, vertical alignment, pressure/pipe class, and fittings challenges. Features a shared leaderboard and 3D-printed trophy prize.

Automation Power Platform

BW RFI Register Automation

A suite of 7+ Power Automate flows managing an RFI register, including weekly summary emails that query Power BI datasets, deduplicate recipients, and send personalised HTML reports to project managers.

Migration Azure

Power Platform Tenant Migration

End-to-end migration of Power Platform assets from a legacy CMP tenant to the new Pentium Water tenant, including connection reference resolution, flow re-authentication, and environment configuration.

MVP AI

Voice-to-Timesheet Tool

An early-stage MVP that converts voice input into structured timesheet entries using a proxied AI API. Built on Cloudflare Pages for fast, lightweight deployment and iteration.

Power BI Reporting

Project Delivery Dashboards

Interactive Power BI dashboards providing real-time project visibility across RFIs, milestones, and delivery metrics for multiple concurrent water infrastructure projects.

Experience

Digital Technology Engineer

Sep 2024 - Present

CMP Consulting Group (Vysarn, ASX: VYS)

Embedded with an 80+ person engineering team as its in-house builder: find where time is lost, then ship the agent, automation or app that fixes it. Design Technology Engineer from Sep 2024, Digital Technology Engineer from Jan 2026. Highlights: a Copilot Studio agent over water design standards using Azure AI Foundry RAG; CMP Wiki, an internal knowledge base on Cloudflare Pages with D1 and PDF ingestion; a 7+ flow Power Automate solution for a major water authority RFI tracker; tenant migrations across 15+ Power Platform assets; and Civil 3D / AutoLISP automation routines saving 10+ hours per project.

Design Engineer

Jul 2018 - Aug 2024

Taylors

Civil engineering design and drafting across 20+ urban development and water infrastructure projects covering pipe networks, pressure analysis, hydraulics, and stormwater. Built and maintained the drafting process adopted across the engineering department, reducing project setup from a week to a day. Authored 20+ AutoCAD/AutoLISP and Excel/VBA automations encoding engineering decision logic, and coordinated up to 7 draftspeople and graduates on deliverables for projects valued up to $10M+.
