Top SchoolJeffrey Lean is a Senior Software Engineer based in Kuala Lumpur with ~5 years building backend systems, distributed streaming platforms, embedded finance services, and identity infrastructure at companies like Grab, AirAsia MOVE, and BigPay. A Gopher and Rustacean passionate about cloud, data, and infra, he currently focuses on Applied AI tooling and infrastructure. He treats coding as a hobby as much as a profession—driven by a "never satisfied" mindset that pushes him toward elegant, production-grade solutions. Notably, he has moved from centralized streaming platforms to identity and AI infra, giving him a rare end-to-end perspective on data flow and model-serving pipelines.
