Hello!

My name is Allan Im, and I am a seasoned software engineer with over 20 years of experience in the industry. I have dedicated my career to mastering Java and building robust, scalable software solutions.

Currently, I am working as a Software Engineer at Biddingo Inc., where I lead a team of talented developers in engineering high-performance corporate software. Throughout my career, I have been instrumental in architecting and implementing large-scale systems that have significantly enhanced business operations and customer satisfaction.

My technical expertise includes:

  • Programming Languages: Java (primary), TypeScript, Kotlin, Groovy, Python
  • Frameworks and Technologies: Spring, Hibernate, Gradle, Solr Cloud
  • Tools and Platforms: AWS, GitHub, Docker, Kubernetes, Jenkins, Oracle, Redis

One of my key projects involved integrating a comprehensive bidding system, which streamlined the procurement process for public and private sector organizations. This project included developing a secure and scalable platform that handled millions of transactions seamlessly, improving user experience and operational efficiency.

Additionally, I developed a microservices-based architecture for a global e-commerce platform, which improved system resilience and reduced downtime by 50%. I also spearheaded the migration of legacy systems to cloud-based solutions, resulting in a 30% reduction in operational costs.

I have contributed to several open-source projects and frequently collaborate with the developer community to share knowledge and best practices. My passion for continuous learning has led me to acquire several certifications, including Oracle Certified Professional, Java SE Developer.

Beyond my technical work, I enjoy mentoring junior engineers and have conducted numerous workshops and training sessions on Java and software architecture. In my spare time, I am an avid reader of tech literature, a contributor to tech blogs, and a regular participant in coding marathons.

I am deeply committed to advancing technology and look forward to opportunities to innovate and drive impactful projects. Thank you for taking the time to get to know me!
