Notes on engineering leadership, building products, and figuring out what matters.

About

I'm Danial, a tech builder and currently based in Amsterdam. I studied software engineering at APU University in Malaysia. My attention is mainly spent on leading and managing an engineering team at Lightspeed, building apps, writing, reading, and experimenting with cooking.

I've been working across multiple industries, from startups to advertising agencies and product companies. I also ran my own software business a few times. Working through different layers of software (engineering, design, product leadership) has shaped how I think about building products.

After living across different cultures and societies, I've learned a great deal about working with people who view situations fundamentally differently. This helped me to find better ways to work with people around me.
