About me
I've spent the past 5+ years as a software engineer at tech companies in Malaysia, building enterprise HR and POS systems โ from React and Vue frontends to Node.js and Laravel backends. At my last role, I led a major frontend migration to a Nuxt.js monorepo, built complex features like shift management systems, and mentored junior developers.
I recently moved to Cambodia and have been building independently โ a dual-currency POS system for the local restaurant market and a community cat welfare platform with KHQR donations and bilingual support. I work primarily with TypeScript, React, and Next.js.
