About Ben Darrah

I love data Growing up around a pscyhologist and a network engineer, I have always passionate about understanding how people and systems interact—especially where government policy, technology, and society meet. This drive to understand how systems interact followed me through university, where I studied towards a degree in international relations and psychology, and postgraduate diploma in intelligence and security. with these qualifications, I bring a unique blend of analytical thinking, policy insight, and technical skills to every challenge. Currently working as a Complex Software Analyst at Datacom, I specialize in solving intricate technical issues, collaborating across teams, and supporting application infrastructure for high-impact clients like ACC. My work is grounded in clear communication, strategic problem-solving, and a commitment to turning insights into action. Whether it's through data analysis, policy evaluation, or cross-functional teamwork, I'm driven by the opportunity to help build systems that are effective, equitable, and future-focused.
