Professional Experience
Software Engineer
at Loopsio
January 2026 - Present
- Engineered and delivered a desktop MVP for an AI construction-tech startup in 4 months using Tauri (React + Rust) that analyses building crack images, helping secure a follow-on Phase 2 development contract through rapid iteration driven by weekly customer demos and feedback sessions.
- Reduced GPU segmentation workloads by 90% and enabled processing of 1,000+ images per session by developing a performant ML inference pipeline leveraging coarse object detection and near-zero-latency IPC.
- Built an AI business support platform for an early stage startup serving 30+ paying customers, designing REST APIs in NodeJS, realtime chatbot interface in React and GPT-4 context-engineering pipelines deployed on AWS ECS.
Fullstack Software Engineer
January 2023 - August 2025
- Secured MYR 1M in contract value and converted a client into a recurring customer by leading a team of 4 engineers to design and deliver a greenfield manufacturing MRP SaaS module, owning frontend delivery, backend REST API design and onsite client collaboration from initial requirements through to UAT sign-off.
- Migrated 20M+ records from 3 legacy ERP systems into a central data platform by designing a queue-based ETL architecture using PostgreSQL event tables and distributed consumer microservices, supporting both batch and real-time ingestion with idempotent processing.
- Extended a high-throughput event-driven messaging platform processing ~500k ERP events daily, leveraging asynchronous Spring Boot producers/consumers, PostgreSQL queue tables, and SKIP LOCKED concurrency across order, inventory, and financial workflows.
- Designed multi-tenant PostgreSQL architectures supporting 50+ clients and 50M+ row datasets, implementing partitioning and audit-trail patterns to ensure scalability, data integrity, and traceability; complemented by DynamoDB for JWT-based RBAC authentication and tenant isolation.
- Spearheaded internationalisation across 50+ Angular microfrontend apps, designing a lazy-loading resource bundle that dynamically swaps languages at runtime - unlocking 3 new markets without requiring app rebuilds per locale.
- Improved UI consistency and development velocity across 50+ microfrontend apps by building a shared Angular component library with 200+ reusable components distributed as a versioned NPM package.
- Reduced deployment time by 40% and accelerated cross-team releases by designing and authoring Bitbucket CI/CD pipelines across containerised Spring Boot services, micro-frontends and NPM libraries.
