Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolKiwi Ong is a pragmatic software engineer with 11 years of experience building and optimizing Java-based systems for high-throughput manufacturing and enterprise environments. At Seagate he’s repeatedly delivered dramatic performance gains—rewriting concurrent pipelines for 10× speedups, resolving multithreading bugs that doubled throughput for 1,000+ tools per minute, and migrating 18 WildFly applications to JDK 21 in a month. He combines deep backend expertise (Java, Spring Boot, Java EE, microservices, concurrency) with a knack for developer tooling and automation—rewriting builds to cut compile times from an hour to five minutes and scripting mass repo migrations. Comfortable spanning monoliths to microservices, Kiwi also experiments with GraalVM native images to improve startup and resource efficiency. Based in Penang, Malaysia, he pairs hands-on coding with cross-team mentorship and a proven record of pragmatic, production-first improvements that quietly keep factories and businesses running.
