Cching Chen

I started my career in psychology, but I quickly realized that what excites me most is solving problems through technology. That curiosity led me to become a backend engineer, where I’ve worked on projects involving e-commerce platforms, cost data processing, and API documentation. I focus on writing efficient, maintainable code and designing systems that balance performance with usability.

My main tech stack includes PHP, PostgreSQL, Docker, and RESTful API design, but I’m always eager to explore new tools — recently, I’ve been learning React and Next.js to understand full-stack development more deeply.

I care about both technical excellence and human experience. My psychology background helps me think about how users and teams interact with technology, which shapes the way I design solutions. I’m also passionate about continuous learning, cross-cultural collaboration, and side projects that combine tech and mental well-being — like I am recently creating tools that help people improve their mood or daily habits.

In the future, I hope to work in a role that lets me grow technically while collaborating with diverse, international teams and contributing to meaningful projects that make life a little better for others.
