Samgu Lee is a founder and specialist in legacy software restoration who makes discontinued systems runnable again while preserving original behavior, structure, and data. With roughly two decades of hands-on experience across web, mobile, and backend systems and eight years in senior leadership roles, he combines deep technical troubleshooting with product-focused modernization (PHP/Node.js, Docker, DB migrations). He has scaled businesses and operations—from rebuilding e-commerce and warehouse workflows to leading game development teams as CTO—delivering faster release cadences and dramatically reduced incident rates. Samgu’s approach favors resuscitation over rewrites: "save first, rebuild only when necessary," which has enabled recoveries of long-neglected sites, internal tools, and legacy databases. He’s raised institutional funding, implemented CI/CD across diverse stacks, and documented systems for digital archiving, making his work both actionable and auditable. Based in Incheon, South Korea, he pairs entrepreneurial instincts with a preservationist craftsmanship that few engineers prioritize.
