About Me

Hello! I'm Minh Dao, a dedicated Software Engineer with a strong background in full-stack development. I specialize in crafting scalable, user-centric solutions leveraging cutting-edge technologies like TypeScript, Python, React, and Next.js, alongside extensive experience with cloud services like AWS and GCP. I’m also passionate about exploring and applying AI to solve business challenges and enhance productivity.

Currently, I’m working as a Software Engineer at SOK in Helsinki, Finland, where I contribute to one of the country’s largest EV charging and refueling platforms. My role involves developing core microservices and crafting scalable backend services that are used by thousands of customers daily. Before that, I led frontend development at Flowrite, helping to build innovative AI-powered writing tools with a focus on performance, accessibility, and user experience.

My professional journey reflects a broad range of experiences, from fast-paced startups, consultants to established corporate settings, allowing me to adapt and excel in diverse contexts. My work has spanned multiple business fields, including e-commerce, energy, retail, AI, and enterprise software, giving me a unique perspective on solving complex challenges across industries.

Outside of tech, I’m all about balance. You’ll often find me jogging through the city, exploring new cultures through travel, strumming my guitar, or crafting detailed miniatures by hand.

Let’s connect and create something amazing together!
