Top SchoolChris Chong is a software engineer with 8 years of experience building full-stack and distributed systems, most recently contributing to TikTok Shop's large-scale e-commerce platform before moving to GovTech Singapore.

Chris has a track record of practical impact—such as reducing AWS costs by 30% at PenguinSmart—while shipping production services across web and mobile. Comfortable in both startup and enterprise environments, he moves quickly from prototyping to hardened, observable systems.
