  "about": [
    "I am a software engineer and service developer with an M.S. and B.S. in Computer Science and Engineering from National Taiwan Ocean University. My strongest through-line is reliability: service design, event flow validation, deployment, and operations.",
    "At SOSELAB, my thesis work became CCTS, a Composite Contract Testing Service for event-driven microservices. It combines Pact contracts, runtime event logs, and state-model validation so testers can detect missing transitions and execution failures instead of trusting happy-path demos.",
    "At ITRI, I worked on the Personal Data Authorization System and a personal-data valuation/payment platform. The work touched logging, payment, blockchain, third-party fintech, CI/CD, infrastructure, and delivery on Azure Kubernetes Service.",
    "Outside formal roles, I run a home-lab with 30+ services across storage, DNS, monitoring, media, albums, and home automation. That environment keeps my platform work honest because I live with the operational consequences."
