Afif Sohaili is a Senior Software Engineer with 11 years of experience building reliable, maintainable web applications and data-processing systems from Malaysia. He has driven measurable performance improvements—refactoring a validation pipeline to cut processing time by 81% and scaling daily record processing to hundreds of thousands—while championing test-driven development and observability with Grafana. A full-stack practitioner comfortable across front-end frameworks (React, Vue) and back-end services (Node, Java, serverless AWS), he also contributes to notable open-source work like enhancements to the Materialize CSS framework. Afif combines hands-on coding with cross-team coordination, writing RFCs, improving peer review workflows, and reducing alert fatigue through better on-call practices. Independent and fast-learning, he prefers remote roles and brings a habitual focus on UX, developer ergonomics, and long-term maintainability. An interesting detail: he describes himself as “a spider because I build webs,” reflecting his affinity for connecting systems and interfaces.
