Summary
Ronald Silang is a Lead Software Engineer with 13 years of experience delivering AI-enabled full-stack products and scalable systems from concept to production. He combines deep Ruby on Rails expertise with practical AI work—building GPT-4/LangChain/Pinecone search over 10,000+ SKUs and embedding AI into everyday engineering workflows to speed delivery and improve quality. At Jiffy he drove measurable impact across fraud prevention, authentication, claims automation, and reliability—reducing compromised-account fraud claims from ~8% to ~2.5% and cutting daily fraud-review tickets by two-thirds. He’s hands-on across backend, frontend, Python/Rust services, and data-driven operational tooling, while also providing architectural guidance, mentoring, and cross-team coordination. Known for pragmatic cleanup and resilience work (removing legacy tables and thousands of lines of dead code), he balances shipping new features with long-term platform health. Based in Rizal, Philippines, he prefers applying AI not only as product capability but as a force multiplier for engineering execution.
