Hi, I’m Liam! I’m a software engineer based in Manila.
I write code for startups and SMEs, and I manage a development team specializing in Laravel, Linux and AWS.
About me
I’ve been a software engineer since 2012, with my first experience breaking a FreeBSD jail from a hosting provider that gave test jails for free. I’ve graduated with a degree in IT in 2017 and have been working as an engineer and team lead since.
I also have a passion for travel and music. I’ve been country-hopping Southeast Asia whenever I have some free time, and I’m currently enrolled for piano classes, taking it up as an adult after stopping as a child.
Tech stack
Laravel
My main bread and butter since 2016. With this, I’ve deployed multiple systems for startups, SMEs and corporations.
Vue
I’ve been a loyal Vue advocate since Vue 2. Responsive, minimalist and fluid UIs are the priorities of all my apps.
Linux & Unix
My passion for technology started with exploring a small FreeBSD jail before moving to a CentOS virtual machine. Now, I’m loyal to Debian and Ubuntu.
Docker + Compose
Jumped on the bandwagon when I’ve had enough of compiling dependencies per deployment. Explored and published containers on Docker Hub since 2020.
Other notable experiences include WordPress, Django, .NET Core & React, and I’ve worked with MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL and Microsoft SQL Server.
