About

I'm Nick Kerr — a Power Platform developer and process lead based in New Zealand. I spent the first part of my career in fibre network operations, which gave me a ground-level understanding of how complex infrastructure actually gets built. Now I build the software that runs those operations.

Day-to-day I work on the TPM suite at Tuatahi First Fibre — a collection of Power Apps, Power Automate flows, and Dataverse schemas that 40+ designers, build managers, and GIS users rely on for task, cost, and document control. I also write about Power Platform, automation, and whatever I'm figuring out.

Before moving into tech full-time, I spent 8 years across manufacturing, FMCG, utilities, and telco. Outside of work, my interests include homelabbing, self-hosting, automation, and gaming.
