BIOGRAPHY

Greetings, I'm David Liang, a versatile and proficient Software Engineer specializing in both backend and frontend development. With a rich blend of experience in AWS, scalable backend and microservices architectures, and crafting intuitive, responsive frontend interfaces, I am adept at delivering complete web solutions.

My journey in software engineering has always been driven by a dual passion: to engineer robust backend systems that form the backbone of digital platforms, and to design front-end interfaces that translate technical functionality into user-friendly experiences. This unique combination allows me to construct applications that are not only powerful under the hood but also engaging and seamless for users.
