Hi, I am Kai 👋🏻

I am a Software Engineer based in Malaysia 🇲🇾 (GMT +8).

  • I started off my career as a Software Engineer and have experience working with frontend, backend, infrastructure and performance issues.
  • I have experience in working with Elixir, TypeScript, React, React Native, Terraform, GitHub Action, AWS services and Docker.
  • I'm lucky enough to be on Thinking Elixir podcast to share my experience about tracing performance problems in production.
  • Along the way, I developed an interest for lower level systems such as database system, networking, observability and etc.
  • Hence, I've decided to pivot my careers towards working on lower level systems.

To make that a reality, I applied to the Recurse Center (RC) so I could spend my time there to become a better programmer along with its community. I attended the Spring batch 2022 at RC. During my time here, I worked on:

  • Writing a database system in Rust from scratch.
  • Writing a reverse proxy like ngrok in Rust.
  • Writing about how I implement a database system in Rust.
  • Implementing Viewstamped Replication in Elixir.
  • Learning about Rust, database system, network programming, distributed system and exploring the unknowns.

Outside of programming, I enjoy writing and sharing what I learned. You can find out more about my writings at my website.
