Senior Software Engineer at Grab
Singapore
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolShimei L is a Senior Software Engineer with 8 years of experience building user-focused web applications and backend systems, currently contributing to Grab's engineering efforts in Singapore. A NUS Computer Science graduate, she has a strong track record modernizing legacy stacks and improving performance—examples include redesigning inefficient SQL queries at Hubble and migrating Viki.com features to Next.js during internships. She’s comfortable across the full stack (TypeScript/Next.js, Ruby on Rails, PostgreSQL, Kubernetes) and has repeatedly improved developer experience through linting, tooling, and pragmatic refactors. Prior roles in product-heavy environments like GovTech and ShopBack show she pairs technical delivery with an eye for public good and operational efficiency. Not obvious from the title: she has hands-on experience reducing client-side render overheads and automating data workflows that saved teams days of manual work.
