At Taishin International Bank, I optimized Docker image build times in CI/CD pipelines by caching, reducing them by about 66%. I also developed an Express.js proxy between internal banking systems and external APIs.

At T-COM Technology Co., Ltd., I built reusable C#/.NET components and RESTful APIs with ASP.NET Core, connecting a React frontend to backend databases. As an undergraduate researcher at the Computing and Software Engineering Laboratory, Tamkang University, I helped develop a multilingual English Assistant with real-time translation and vocabulary extraction.

For my Self-Hosted AI Inference API project, I built a Python/FastAPI service for private inference with local LLaMA 3 models via Ollama. Its asynchronous endpoints support 200 concurrent requests, and I validated payloads with Pydantic and containerized the service with Docker.
