Senior Backend / Product Engineer with 10+ years of experience building and owning production systems from early-stage products to high-scale platforms.
Most recently at Agoda, where I worked on B2B platform systems and redesigned partner configuration/email infrastructure, improving new partner launch velocity by 5–10x. Previously at Groove/Clari, I owned major parts of a real-time communication product, and at VueOps I led development of a document platform and migrated its file-processing engine to serverless infrastructure, reducing infrastructure cost 5x and failures 3x.
I’ve also spent 2026 building an AI-powered language-learning product from scratch and consulting with an early-stage AI startup.
I’m particularly interested in Senior/Staff Backend, Product Engineer, Founding Engineer, or early-stage engineering roles where I can own systems end-to-end rather than work on a narrow slice of the stack.
Happy to talk with founders or engineering teams building technically challenging products.
