Forward Deployed Engineer in Singapore
I work like a forward deployed engineer: close to the people with the problem, turning loosely defined requirements into a technical design, and shipping it to production with the governance around it.
How I work with customers
- At Vertex Ventures I build AI tooling directly with the investment teams who use it, across the SEA and India fund, and keep the platform delivering through leadership change.
- At Oracle Cloud Infrastructure I delivered Java Management Service to enterprise customers including banks and hotels, working with product managers and backend engineers to scope requirements into designs.
- I own delivery end to end: design, build, security and compliance review, release, and iteration.
What I bring
Python and TypeScript, LLM agents and RAG, MCP server design, prompt-injection defence, cloud IAM and audit alerting, plus a decade of production delivery and mentoring engineers.
