Senior Platform Engineer
About
Hello, I'm Vincent. I enjoy building projects from start to finish, exploring every aspect of an application. From creating the frontend, programming the backend, to setting up the platform and infrastructure. And of course, I think about security at every step. Some may call this DevSecOps.
