Tharshen A/L Surian Balan
I'm a Computer Science student at Multimedia University working towards DevOps and Site Reliability Engineering roles. I've interned as a full stack engineer at iFAST Global Hub AI and as a web engineer at MoneyLion. Outside of work, I've spent most of my time at university building communities: I was President of IT Society and Hackerspace MMU, and directed BarCamp Cyberjaya. These days I'm learning observability with OpenTelemetry and the VictoriaMetrics stack, and writing about what I learn on my blog.
