Tech Director @ Vannise Vannise 技術總監

A software engineer based in Taiwan, currently leading engineering at Vannise. Over the past ~15 years I've worked at startups and at a NASDAQ-listed company — co-founding a payments startup, building mobile and backend systems, and more recently working on commerce platforms and AI-assisted development. I like taking unclear problems and turning them into systems that hold up in production.

一名在台灣的軟體工程師,目前在 Vannise 帶工程。過去約 15 年,我待過新創, 也待過 NASDAQ 上市公司——共同創辦過一家支付新創、做過行動與後端系統, 近幾年則在電商平台與 AI 輔助開發上。我喜歡把還不清楚的問題,做成在線上撐得住的系統。

I mostly work on backend and high-concurrency systems, and on making AI a practical part of how a team builds — moving from "AI-friendly" to "AI-first", where AI does a lot of the drafting and people review and decide. I care more about systems that keep working than about novelty.

我主要做後端與高併發系統,也在把 AI 變成團隊開發裡實際好用的一環—— 從「AI-friendly」往「AI-first」走:讓 AI 負責大量草稿、由人來審查與拍板。 比起新奇,我更在意系統能不能持續穩定運作。

Outside the day job I help out as a technical advisor for an alumni angel group, and occasionally give talks on using AI in engineering teams.

工作之外,我在一個校友天使投資社團擔任技術顧問,偶爾也分享一些「AI 用在工程團隊」的主題。
