AI & knowledge retrieval
RAG Bot
Built with a partner, RAG Bot turns uploaded files into searchable vector embeddings, retrieves relevant context for Gemini-powered answers, and secures backend requests with short-lived JWTs.
ENGINEER BY TRADE. BUILDER AT HEART.
I’m Bryan Tan Hoe Kin, a full-stack .NET developer, software engineer, and solutions architect turning complex problems into practical, considered solutions.
Grounded in systems.
Driven by what’s possible.

01 / SELECTED WORK
A collection of things I’ve built, explored,
and put out into the world.

AI & knowledge retrieval
Built with a partner, RAG Bot turns uploaded files into searchable vector embeddings, retrieves relevant context for Gemini-powered answers, and secures backend requests with short-lived JWTs.

Finance & everyday tools
A personal finance tracking application for multiple users. An experiment in building beyond my familiar .NET stack with React, Django, and MySQL.

Technology for community
A not-for-profit, volunteer-run online memorial remembering those who lost their lives to Covid-19 in Malaysia.

Data & experimentation
Built alongside a partner using Python, the Alpaca API, and Lumibot to explore sentiment-driven strategies and backtesting.

Design & development
Originally a challenge to design and build a frontend portfolio in under a week. Rewritten in Next.js in 2026 and now reimagined as one continuous experience.
02 / THE JOURNEY
From legal technology to payments and life & pension, I’ve worked across the systems that keep businesses moving.
C# and .NET at the core.
A wider perspective with every project.
Life & pension
Software Developer

Currently at Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken, driving the modernization of life and pension processes for advisors and brokers, with a focus on efficiency and innovation.
Payments & platforms
Technical Consultant

Engineered scalable platforms and developed secure, high-performance online payment solutions for both enterprise and consumer markets.
Legal & accounting
Software Engineer

Built advanced legal and accounting technology solutions, streamlining backend processes and enhancing SaaS product performance.
03 / THE TOOLKIT
Languages, frameworks, and platforms
I’ve worked with along the way.
OFFLINE, MORE SO THAN YOU THINK.04 / BEYOND THE KEYBOARD
I’m drawn to systems and processes, especially in fintech. I bring domain knowledge, an eye for detail, and a go-getter spirit to making modern solutions work in the real world.
My approach is simple: understand the problem, question the complexity, and build with clarity. I use AI to accelerate delivery while staying hands-on with the technology and decisions behind it.
I see AI as an evolution of our professions. Staying curious, agile, and adaptable is part of the work.
05 / HOW I CAN HELP
I take on projects outside my regular working hours, helping turn a clear ambition into something useful.
From concept to launch, I craft bespoke, 0-to-1 software solutions tailored to your vision, with ongoing support to keep them up to date.
