About & Leadership Philosophy

I am a software engineer turned engineering leader with 4+ years of experience building mobile and backend systems. At Asian Group Distributor, I lead engineering and management operations while staying hands-on with Flutter for mobile and Laravel, Node.js, and Python on the backend.

My role sits at the intersection of technology and business. I oversee cross-functional teams, handle strategic planning, and run business meetings, all while making sure the engineering work directly translates into business velocity.

At AGD, I led the development of a complete Bus Ticketing & Inventory Management System from scratch, built Android POS Terminals for on-ground transport operations, and negotiated API integrations with global industry leaders including Flixbus, Busbud, Trenitalia, Travelier, and hotel providers like Webbeds.
