Experience

Customer-facing engineering with a deep focus on automation and analytics

Robert Bosch (South East Asia)

AIoT Software Developer Intern

Jun 2025 - Dec 2025

Built and shipped customer-facing Angular and React frontends integrated with Spring Boot and Python backends. Implemented responsive layouts, role-based authentication and API-driven state management with 100% E2E and unit test coverage
Implemented Grafana and Infinity dashboards for Keycloak, with parameterized variables, data transformations and reusable JSON panel definitions. Produced SOPs enabling cross-team reuse and faster RCA
Set up Playwright E2E across multiple apps and integrated runs into Azure DevOps with Monocart HTML reports and JUnit artifacts. Enabled auto-gated merges in SIT and reduced manual QA
Designed a natural-language SQL analytics workflow using LangChain and Bedrock Converse with schema-aware context injection, SQL guardrails and a chartability gate to avoid heavy payloads when visuals were not needed
Transitioned the natural-language SQL into a multimodal system and tuned ClickHouse for large queries. Right-sized mark cache, validated spill settings, set concurrency limits and scoped projections to reduce query times by 50%
Built a multi-pipeline Azure DevOps setup from scratch. Authored reusable templates, configured automatic triggers, ran builds on SL4 agents and Azure, executed tests and published Docker images to Azure registries and AWS Lightsail
Deployed and operated containerized services on AWS Lightsail, configuring service ports/health checks, environment variables and release workflows to support reliable deployments
