PhD-qualified senior software engineer and researcher bridging academia and industry.
What I'm looking for
I’m a PhD-qualified software engineer and researcher with 10+ years of industry experience and a strong academic record in knowledge management, software agent modeling, and ICT. I’ve built my career on publishing peer-reviewed research and mentoring Bachelor and Master students, with a clear focus on translating ideas into real-world impact.
In my current role as Senior Software Engineer at Kenlink Group Sdn Bhd, I lead cross-functional delivery across the full software development lifecycle—planning, analysis, design, implementation, integration testing, and deployment—while consistently meeting deadlines. Previously, I developed a food ordering system generating annual sales of over RM100K, expanded real estate portals for Malaysia and Singapore, and supported server administration and troubleshooting across Windows and Linux.
Earlier, I redesigned and developed web applications using ASP.NET and related front-end technologies, improved system capabilities for tracking use cases to achieve a 95% accuracy rate, and resolved production issues that increased system efficiency by 50%. I also teach and train programming and web development topics through freelance instruction, and I back it with certifications including PMP and AWS Cloud Practitioner.
