Ku Chien Hsiang

Project Manager | Front-end Engineer
For the past four years, I've worked as a project manager in the software industry where I honed my skills in overseeing projects and ensuring their successful completion. Intrigued by the technical intricacies of software development, I started learning coding through Harvard's CS50 course. Applying this new knowledge at work, I assisted engineers in resolving bug issues, which further fueled my interest in coding. Motivated to enhance my coding skills, I attended a Full-stack coding bootcamp in Melbourne. With this solid foundation, I am eager to embark on a new journey as a software engineer. I'm excited about this new chapter in my career and look forward to contributing to the creation of functional, user-centered software solutions
