Summary
👤
SeniorAndrew Downing is a Solutions Architect with over 30 years' experience in local government IT at Shoalhaven City Council, specialising in solution architecture, business analysis, and software development. He combines deep technical fluency in VB.NET/C#, PowerBuilder, IIS, and Microsoft SQL Server (dating back to SQL95) with hands-on experience integrating EDMS, LIS/GIS spatial systems, finance and regulatory platforms. As a longtime Microfocus Content Manager (TRIM) system administrator and supporter of TechnologyOne - OneCouncil ERP, he bridges record management, enterprise systems and day-to-day operational needs for all levels of council.

His career demonstrates rare continuity and institutional knowledge, enabling pragmatic solutions that balance legacy systems and modern integration patterns. Based in Sydney, he describes himself simply as a software engineer for a really long time — a succinct hint at steady, wide-ranging craftsmanship.
