Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolEv Ooi is a Principal Software Developer and engineering lead based in Perth with a decade of experience building cloud-native platforms, modern web apps, and developer-first tooling across enterprise, energy, and startups. He blends hands‑on implementation (TypeScript, React, Node, Python, Docker, AWS) with strategic leadership—setting architecture, governance and migration plans so proofs‑of‑concept can ship quickly yet converge to platform standards. At BHP he led an AI-enabled risk assessment and document‑to‑insight pipeline that balanced pragmatic delivery (v1) with a compliance‑focused v2 and backward‑compatible APIs. He’s a pragmatic proponent of TDD, end‑to‑end testing, and developer experience, accelerating new joiner productivity with starter kits and clear guardrails. Comfortable moving between code and stakeholder alignment, he surfaces gaps early and unblocks cloud and provisioning bottlenecks to keep delivery on track. Outside work he’s a web dev and “fisho in Oz,” easily distracted by shiny new technologies like agentic AI and LangGraph.
