FAQ
Common questions about my work, availability, and how I can help.
Yes — I am open to the right opportunity as a Technical Lead, Senior Developer, or Senior Technical Consultant. I am particularly interested in companies building complex backend systems, modernising legacy platforms, or looking to scale their engineering teams.
My core strengths are backend development (Java, Spring Boot, Laravel, PHP), frontend migration projects (e.g. Java Swing → SvelteKit), CI/CD pipeline design (Gitea Runner + Harbor), and AI-assisted developer workflow automation using Claude Code. I also handle team leadership, architecture planning, and technical documentation.
Both. My current role at Kollect Systems is on-site in Kota Damansara, PJ. Previous roles at Biztory and YoPrint were fully remote. I am open to either arrangement depending on the team and role.
Yes. I have built a full AI-assisted developer workflow system using Claude Code — including 70+ reusable automation skills, 23 MCP server integrations (4 custom-built), session hooks, and SOP enforcement tools. I can help teams reduce manual overhead, embed quality standards directly into the development toolchain, and onboard team members faster.
I currently lead a cross-functional team of 14 at Kollect Systems — mid-level and junior software developers, QA engineers, and a group of software and QA interns. My responsibilities include sprint planning, code reviews, technical direction, mentoring, and aligning the team around architecture goals. I have also previously mentored junior developers at Appvolusi.
