Huong Nguyen is an engineering manager with eight years of experience building and leading backend teams, currently driving development at Moodle after progressing from developer to manager roles within the same organization. He combines hands-on integration work—merging core branches and adding dependencies for major releases like Moodle 4.5—with team leadership skills including estimation, code review, and client-facing implementation. Prior experience at NashTech and Samsung sharpened his enterprise software and process discipline, while an early love of coding (starting with Pascal in high school) informs his detail-oriented approach to complex systems. Based in Ho Chi Minh City and holding a Computer Science degree from the University of Greenwich, he pairs open-source contributions to a globally used LMS with a knack for turning intricate requirements into simple, reliable code.
