Summary
Nam Mai is a software engineer with eight years of hands-on experience building production systems in C++, Python, and backend services, currently joining AWS RDS MySQL & MariaDB core engine while also working on Shopify’s App Store. He has a track record of delivering reliable, regulated software—from embedded C firmware and medical device test protocols to machine vision SDKs and cross-platform tooling. At Code for BC he led a Django policy evaluation engine for 1k+ Airbnb listings and improved CI/CD and testing practices, demonstrating both product impact and engineering craft. Comfortable across low-level systems and web backends, he pairs systems thinking with practical automation (Poetry-packaged CLIs, multi-stage Docker builds). Based in Vancouver and trained at UBC, he brings an unusual blend of clinical-regulatory attention to detail and cloud-scale backend experience.
