01Crew dossier

A generalist who actually likes both halves of the stack.

I'm Lâm — a full-stack engineer based in Hanoi. For the last three years I've been building web products that ship to tens of thousands of people, and for the last six months I've also been leading the team that builds them.

My favorite kind of work is the unglamorous infrastructure that makes a product feel fast: image pipelines that chew through millions of objects, data platforms that stitch 21 apps into one view, dashboards that turn raw events into decisions.
