Senior🎓
Top SchoolJia Yong is a Software Engineer (II) based in Singapore with a decade of hands-on experience building full-stack, cloud-native applications for government services. At GovTech he has delivered features for SupplyAlly and GovWallet using React Native, TypeScript, Serverless patterns and AWS services, while architecting idempotency middleware, i18n support, and robust SQS/DLQ integrations to improve throughput and recoverability. He has a strong backend foundation from earlier roles and training in Java, Spring and Angular, complemented by a Diploma in Cyber & Digital Security and a Computer Science degree from NTU. Comfortable across mobile, web and serverless stacks, he focuses on pragmatic, reliable solutions that enable large-scale public distribution and payments. Colleagues rely on him for design-first thinking that balances operational resilience with user-facing simplicity. He brings a quietly curious mindset, often surfacing cross-system improvements (like QR payment parsing and transform pipelines) that aren’t obvious at first glance.
