About / profile

Based in Japan

Backend by practice.
Security by curiosity.

I’m a backend engineer working on data platforms, APIs, and practical applications of data and AI. I’m broadly interested in security — not limited to software.

01 / Focus

The questions I keep returning to.

How do we make systems more trustworthy, resilient, and secure?

02 / Experience

What I work on.

Building large-scale data platforms

Designing incremental pipelines and data systems at logistics scale, including workloads of roughly 5 billion parcel records per year.

Designing backends and access control

Working across BFFs, APIs, authentication, authorization, and web applications with TypeScript, Hono, tRPC, OpenAPI, Go, and Python.

Evaluating data and AI use cases

Comparing practical approaches such as GraphRAG and RAG across answer quality, cost, and latency.

03 / Open source

A few public traces.
