Hi there,
I’m Thien Ly,
but you can call me Kai, for short.
I share words,
code,
and thoughts
about engineering.

At my current company, Persona AI, I am building products focusing on LLMs and scaling architectures.

You can read articles I wrote on this blog, or ask me anything on Twitter, LinkedIn.

My journey in the software industry commenced in 2019. I appreciated seeing myself don various hats – from a versatile full-stack developer to delving into the front end, exploring the mobile domain, and currently, navigating the new realm as a backend and AI software engineer.

After learning, working, struggling, and then having some pieces of knowledge, I decided to create thediligentengineer.com to enhance my brain memory via sharing by jotting things down.

I sincerely hope that the words here resonate with you, proving both enriching and meaningful in your own exploration of the vast landscapes of self-development in this industry.

Cheers to us and our encounter!

KAI
