About

Senior Java Engineer with over 15 years of international experience across the United States and Singapore, specializing in backend systems, distributed architecture, and large-scale platform development. I hold a Master’s degree in Computer Science and a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science from well-recognized U.S. universities, providing a strong foundation in software engineering, system design, and scalable architecture. My career began in the United States, where I developed core expertise in Java backend development, enterprise systems, and database-driven applications. Over time, I progressed into senior engineering roles, working on distributed systems and high-traffic platforms in leading technology companies. Currently based in Singapore, I focus on building scalable backend services, improving system performance, and ensuring reliability in large-scale production environments. I am passionate about designing maintainable systems and solving complex engineering challenges.
