Past Experiences (optional)
Banff Cyber Technologies Pte Ltd
May 2017 - Jul 2017
I interned there as a Associate Web Frontend Engineer, where I was responsible for the creating their new web scanner product which was planned to be integrated with their core offering - WebOrion. During the process, I came up with wireframes of the planned product and integrated a third-party service which Banff Cyber was at that time collaborating together.
My workplace, which was within the JTC LaunchPad @ one-north, allowed for close-up interaction with other startups. In fact I enjoyed working there so much that I want to return to working for another startup in the same place.
BSM Germany
Feb 2018 - Mar 2018
I had the opportunity to visit Berlin - touted as the startup hub of Europe - in Feb 2018. I got the chance to visited Factory Berlin where we were introduced to, among other things, Berlin's startup ecosystem and their RadBahn project.
