Mike Chau is a Technical Project Manager with 11 years’ experience leading cross-functional engineering teams to deliver cloud-native, containerised microservices and global SaaS products from roadmap to release. Based in Brisbane, he combines hands-on front-end experience—contributing interactive documentation examples to the widely used TinyMCE project—with senior product and engineering leadership roles including principal product manager and principal engineer. He specialises in AWS/Kubernetes infrastructure, release engineering automation, SOC 2 operations and incident response, and scaling services for distributed workforces. A certified Scrum Master and experienced scrum leader, he bridges product strategy and delivery while mentoring teams and improving processes. Less obvious: he has moved core editor codebases to TypeScript and led major modernisations (TinyMCE 5.0), giving him rare depth across legacy on‑prem integrations and modern cloud-first architectures.
