Yiwei Gong is a Singapore-based co-founder and software engineer with 13 years of experience building product-driven solutions at the intersection of construction, VDC and computer graphics. As Co-Founder of VRcollab he led development of a BIM-focused collaboration and VR platform used by major clients like BCA, HDB and NUS, pairing domain knowledge in architecture with strong engineering skills in Go, Python, C++ and web technologies. He combines full-stack pragmatism with research rigor—his background includes GPU-accelerated nearest-neighbor work at NUS, a PayPal systems internship, and a Master’s in AI—enabling performant, scalable features for complex datasets. Comfortable shipping production systems and prototypes, Yiwei also spent time as an Entrepreneur in Residence at Entrepreneur First Singapore, reflecting a knack for turning technical ideas into commercial products. Colleagues would note his blend of systems-level thinking and hands-on coding (his cheeky GitHub bio: #define ME "A Programmer"), which helps bridge product, engineering and industry stakeholders.
