AI-native builder working across data engineering, finance systems, and agentic workflows.
I build practical systems with AI agents, financial data, cloud data pipelines, and fast product prototypes.
I am a Computer Science student at Universiti Malaya who enjoys building systems at the intersection of AI, finance, and data engineering.
Instead of only building isolated apps, I am interested in designing workflows, infrastructure, and tools that help people:
- reason better with data
- automate repetitive work
- make better financial and operational decisions
- turn messy ideas into usable products
My work usually falls into four areas:
LLM workflows, RAG, MCP tools, orchestration, automation | Market data, backtesting, personal finance, investment research | ETL pipelines, orchestration, data quality, cloud workflows | Hackathon MVPs, AI web apps, fintech tools, developer utilities |
| Area | What I am exploring |
|---|---|
| 🤖 Agentic AI | LLM orchestration, MCP, Claude Code workflows, RAG, tool-calling agents |
| 📊 Quant / Finance | Autonomous alpha discovery, backtesting, market data pipelines, investment decision support |
| 🔩 Data Engineering | Data pipelines, orchestration, CI/CD, data quality, warehouse automation |
| ⚡ Product Building | Fast MVP development, AI-assisted engineering, workflow-first software design |
| Project | Area | What it shows |
|---|---|---|
| Vibe Quant | Quant / AI | Autonomous alpha discovery using LLM agents, vector memory, and backtesting workflows. |
| UM Datathon Bitcoin Strategy | Quant / Data | Bitcoin algorithmic trading strategy research and backtesting. |
