# Ben Kolera

#### Principal Engineer

Ben is a software engineer and development lead with 15 years of experience. His experience ranges from small, high-performing teams in telecommunications through to writing SaaS platforms that need to scale to millions of end users. His passion is creating high-quality software systems that solve complex user problems and really make a difference to the world.

Ben has also been involved in the CDR from its early beginnings. He worked at Data 61 while the standards were being created, as part of a team that was tasked in helping give initial feedback of the early specs by implementing parts of the specifications.

Ben is excited by the possibilities that the CDR will bring to Australia and is committed to using his SaaS engineering skills to help create a CDR ecosystem with the lowest possible barrier to entry for CDR participants so that Australia can start reaping the benefits.
