Summary

I began my career in software development through a two-year internship at a startup when I was an university student. In 2017, I joined a major systems integrator as a new graduate, where I successfully led a ¥100 million (~$1M USD) project as a project manager in my second year.

In 2019, I transitioned to freelancing. Later in 2023, I co-founded an EdTech startup and served as CTO and tech lead, where I was responsible for building and scaling the product and the engineering team. As of 2025, I’m once again working as a freelance technical advisor, supporting multiple clients with their technology and product development.

I have led development across a wide range of domains including web apps, mobile apps, dApps, and cloud infrastructure. My core strengths lie in backend development, team management, and early-stage technical leadership. I'm particularly experienced in supporting startups and new product initiatives—offering guidance on technology selection, architecture design, and project direction.

Having worked at a large enterprise with over 6,000 employees, I am also comfortable navigating cross-department collaboration and managing large-scale projects with multiple stakeholders.

In addition to client work, I also pursue personal projects and technical outreach, including:

  • Developed a dApp that generates NFT art based on heart rate data

  • Built a LINE bot for restaurant search (400+ registered users)

  • Gave a solo tech talk in front of 120+ attendees

  • Regularly publish technical articles on Qiita and Zenn (multiple trending posts, ranked #1 daily)

Recently, I've been particularly interested in generative AI, and I’m actively exploring how to apply AI agents to both workflows and product features.
