Positioning

Product Engineer & Applied AI Engineer specializing in agentic systems, RAG platforms, and backend architectures.

Combines formal AI training with backend architecture experience in control-plane design, domain/service boundaries, and asynchronous task processing. Bridges software engineering and AI through trace reconstruction, runtime observability, and automated evaluation gates.

Experience

Applied AI Engineer & Automation Tester

FPT Software · Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

Dec 2024 — Present

  • IQP (Code Intelligence & Quality Retrieval): Architected backend retrieval for IQP combining semantic vector search, BM25 lexical signals, and Code Graphs, exposing contextual tools to AI clients via Model Context Protocol (MCP) to automate quality analysis across multi-repository codebases.
  • Agent Assurance (Evaluation & Observability Engine): Architected and implemented an end-to-end AI Agent Verification engine (awarded 2nd Place at IVS Hackathon 2026) featuring runtime evidence capture via LiteLLM and OpenTelemetry, trace reconstruction pipelines, and deterministic quality gates.
  • AI Systems Reliability & Assurance Lifecycle: Established an end-to-end assurance lifecycle spanning Intake, Requirements, Test Design & Oracle Definition, Measurement Qualification, Behavioral Validation, Reporting, and Re-assurance for agentic applications.
  • Banking Automation & Systems Verification: Engineered reusable cross-platform test automation and 1,500+ lines of SQL validation across banking and payment systems, cutting manual regression effort by ~70%.

Full-Stack Developer Intern

FPT Software Academy · Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

Sep 2024 — Dec 2024

  • Built the core backend for an online learning and assessment platform using Django with role-based access control and automated exam workflows.
  • Integrated a separate FastAPI computer-vision service for AI-assisted real-time exam proctoring and face detection.
  • Containerized and deployed the multi-service architecture using Docker Compose, Nginx reverse proxy, and Cloudflare Tunnel.
