What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can build products that make a meaningful difference, work with a supportive and curious team, and continually learn and grow.

I want to contribute my experience while expanding into new challenges that push me to become better in my career.

Hi, my name is Stanley, and I am a principal engineer and full-stack developer with over 10 years of experience building and scaling web, mobile, and TV platforms across fintech, edtech, media, and proptech.

I’ve led engineering teams both on-site and remotely, developing products used by thousands of users worldwide. My focus is to build software and apps that work well, scale easily, and solve real problems.

Some highlights I’m proud of are:

- Scaled TeachBuddy (Android TV) to 500,000+ active devices while maintaining under 2% crash rate and offline-first reliability.

- Cut delivery cycle time by ~35% by implementing AI-assisted code reviews and automated CI/CD workflows.

- Built and scaled 5+ platforms (OTT, news, BNPL fintech, CRM) from 0 to 1, improving engagement and reliability during high-traffic events.

I’m passionate about writing clean, maintainable code and collaborating with teams that value creativity, simplicity, and great user experiences.

My core skills are React, React Native, Next.js, Node.js, GCP, Figma, Docker, and CI/CD.

I am always looking for projects that combine creativity and scalability to make a real impact.

I would love to bring my skills and experience to your team to build something meaningful.
