What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build scalable backend systems, automation, and API infrastructure while improving architecture, developer workflows, and product quality. I value opportunities to lead technical discussions, mentor teams, and deliver practical business solutions.

I enjoy solving real-world technical problems, especially around backend architecture, APIs, databases, system performance, and automation. I'm always curious about how things work and how technology can be used to make products better and more useful.
Recently, I've been expanding my knowledge into AI and LLM engineering, exploring areas such as AI agents, RAG, and intelligent automation. I'm excited about the possibilities of combining strong software engineering fundamentals with AI to build practical solutions.
I'm a continuous learner and enjoy working on challenging problems, exploring new technologies, and sharing ideas with other people in tech.
I'm always open to:
• Interesting engineering opportunities
• AI and software engineering discussions
• Networking and collaboration
• Challenging projects and ideas

Currently building backend automation and reporting infrastructure at TyrAds, where I author RFCs for core services, automate publisher onboarding through HubSpot and internal APIs, and maintain high-concurrency API systems.

Previously, I improved microservices, testability, and developer workflows at PrimaKu and Wallet Codes. I migrated legacy payment services to microservices, integrated payment gateways across Thailand, Taiwan, Myanmar, and the Philippines, and built internal backend documentation.
