Fractional tech leadership & systems for small teams.
I'm Hein. For 15+ years I've been the tech person behind other people's products — from turning manual operations into ERP systems to large-scale backend at Secretlab in Singapore. My job was always the same: turn messy operations into systems that run without drama.
Senior tech decisions,
without the full-time hire.
Fractional Tech Lead
Architecture reviews, build-vs-buy calls, and a roadmap that matches your stage — for teams that don't have a full-time tech lead.
Systems & automation
Manual, spreadsheet-heavy operations turned into systems — integrations, automated deploys, and workflows your team actually uses.
Build oversight
Keep your developers or agency shipping the right thing — clear specs, honest progress reviews, no surprises at the end.
SecretlabSingapore — Backend Developer
Large-scale backend for a global e-commerce operation — automated deployment, end-to-end test pipelines across regional stores, and 3PL integrations.
gumi AsiaSingapore — Senior Server Engineer
Kept a million-user mobile game running globally with no downtime — AWS, Redis and Laravel at scale, plus the tools the operations team relied on daily.
Luxur HomeSingapore — ERP Transformation
Turned a furniture company's manual operations into an ERP system, then led development and pre-sales at a Singapore tech agency for four years.
Currently building my own education platform — so I know the founder side of the table too.

A few focused hours a month — enough to keep your tech decisions senior without a full-time hire. In tech since 2009. Based in Chiang Mai, working with teams in Singapore and beyond.
