Cloud-native student, learning, and skills management system for Australian RTOs
aXcelerate operates a cloud-based management platform for vocational training organizations, combining student records, course delivery, and compliance reporting into a single system. The tech stack reveals a modern, infrastructure-heavy engineering culture: React + TypeScript frontends, Node.js backends, AWS-native deployment (Terraform, CDK, Helm), and production observability across Prometheus, Datadog, and New Relic. Active projects prioritize modernizing legacy ColdFusion codebases and rebuilding AWS infrastructure for security and reliability—a pattern typical of SaaS platforms consolidating technical debt while scaling.
