💻 Full-Stack & Platform Engineer | Distributed Systems | AI/ML
I'm a software engineer with 3+ years of experience building scalable distributed systems, backend services, internal platforms, and full-stack applications. My professional experience includes Kafka platform engineering, cloud migration, infrastructure automation, and developer-facing applications at PayPal.
I'm currently pursuing a Master of Computing in Artificial Intelligence at the National University of Singapore (NUS), building on my background in software engineering and AI/ML.
I'm particularly interested in AI/ML engineering, distributed systems, platform engineering, and building practical AI-powered systems.
