About

Hey there! 👋
Engineering leader with 15+ years scaling tech teams across Southeast Asia - from early-stage startups to platforms serving millions. Started as a mobile engineer building Channel NewsAsia app (1M+ users) in 2010, then co-founded 2 startups, served as CTO of Eatigo at TripAdvisor-backed Series C company, and led engineering at ComfortDelGro, Delivery Hero, and now Grab heading Consumer Engineering.
I've scaled teams 0→50+, expanded across 8 APAC markets, driven monolith-to-microservices migrations, and built AI-powered developer tools. Most passionate about helping engineers transition to leadership - that messy, rewarding journey of learning to build through others.
Happy to chat about:

Engineering management & leadership growth
Scaling teams/orgs across countries
Startup-to-scale-up transitions
Mobile & consumer products at scale
AI-first engineering & developer productivity

Whether you're running your first squad, making senior hires, managing up, or thinking platform strategy - I've been there. Looking forward to connecting!
