About Core Automation

Meet the founder

I'm Andrew, founder and lead engineer at Core Automation.

Before starting Core Automation, I spent 15 years as an electrical and automation engineer across commercial and high-end residential projects in Europe and Australia. I kept encountering the same problem: beautiful homes let down by technology that was bolted on rather than built in. I founded Core Automation to do it differently.

When you work with Core Automation, you work with me directly — from the first conversation to the day your system goes live. No account managers, no handoffs, no gap between what's promised and what's delivered. Every decision, every detail, and every deadline is my personal responsibility.
