Experience
Tech Lead Consultant · We Do Dev Work
Aug 2026 – Present · Bangkok, Thailand
- Review the team's pull requests and own the technical decisions.
- Single point of contact for clients on scope and technical choices: give them what they need to decide and keep client and team on the agreed outcome.
- Wrote the SKILL.md files that hold our coding standards and made them mandatory, so AI-generated code follows the same rules as hand-written code.
- Moved QA into the team's workflow: developers now share responsibility for quality instead of handing work over at the end.
- Advise RAS Security, a Belgian security-equipment distributor, and MadeIndonesia, a digital agency in Yogyakarta, on technical choices and SEO; contract PHP work for SD Creative Agency in the Netherlands.
- Build internal products: EngineeringScore, a website-audit tool that scores security, performance, SEO and accessibility, and the PAK PRIK online shop (Thai curry paste).
