Full Stack Developer · Yangon, Myanmar

Hey, I'm Paing — a full stack developer who builds scalable web apps and, more recently, AI-powered products: real-time voice, LLM-driven conversations, and speech pipelines. I work mainly with Next.js, NestJS, and PostgreSQL, and I care a lot about clean code and shipping things that actually work.

About

I've spent the last couple of years moving from ERP systems and enterprise coordination into full stack and AI product engineering—working across accounting, retail, supply chain, and insurance domains before landing on building real-time, voice-driven AI experiences today.

I like working end-to-end: data models, APIs, and the UI on top, with a soft spot for anything involving LLMs, WebSockets, or making an interface feel instant.
