10YOE, last 5y focused on observability, DBaaS, and DB development. Prior experience as data eng. supporting ML teams. Targeting an IC role working on O11y, infra, or finops/capacity planning. My niche is somewhere between "backend engineer" and "reliability researcher". I work best on teams that aim to build legible, performant systems and are committed to mentorship/developing earlier-career engineers. My writing/research on distributed systems is available on my blog. This auto-sharding system is my most recent "big project": https://www.dmw2151.com/auto_load_balancing.html

Location: Hong Kong (PR) · Sydney, Australia (PR) · EU national. No visa sponsorship required.

Remote: Yes — worldwide. Open to fractional CPO, advisory, consulting, board, or part-time engagements. Also open to full-time senior/executive roles.

Willing to relocate: Flexible across APAC. Prefer HK base.

I've spent 15 years building mobile products at scale — Google, Myspace, Booking Holdings (Agoda), and Skyscanner. A few things I've shipped:

Rebuilt Agoda's iOS + Android apps from scratch. Launched the OTA industry's first all-inclusive pricing model with ML-powered search. Result: 6x daily bookings, 2x conversion, $2B annual mobile GMV. Led Hotels, Car Hire & Rail at Skyscanner through COVID-19. Grew Hotels above pre-pandemic levels — the only product line at the company to do it. Launched the first Myspace app on Google Play. Installed on 50% of Android devices worldwide within 12 months. At Google, ran global launch marketing for Google Mobile Search, YouTube Mobile, and iPhone Apps. Co-wrote the quarterly board letter.

What I'm good at: Mobile product strategy (iOS/Android), AI/ML product integration (recommendations, ranking, personalisation, pricing), P&L ownership, 0→1 and 1→scale, cross-functional team leadership across APAC/US/EU, UX/UI, OTA/travel tech, consumer internet.

What I'm looking for right now: Fractional CPO · VP Product · Product advisor · Board / NED · Consulting engagements. Particularly interested in mobile-first, AI-native, or travel/e-commerce companies. Happy to work remotely from HK or Sydney with periodic travel.

Résumé/CV: https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-valente-018243245/

Email: davidafonso.valente@gmail.com

I am an AI PhD candidate at the National University of Singapore (NUS) and an active AI researcher at BottleCap SE. I specialize in core foundational models, focusing on advanced reasoning, diffusion language models, agentic systems, and architectural efficiency.

I am available for fractional consulting, technical due diligence, and architecture advisory. I partner with technical teams and investors to design scalable agentic workflows, optimize custom fine-tuning pipelines, slash inference compute costs, and evaluate the true technical defensibility of emerging machine learning stacks.

  Email: getravi at gmail
Tech-forward finance systems / data engineer (18+ yrs) at the intersection of FP&A, data infra, and internal tooling (currently at eBay; previously Sonder, Adobe).

I build systems that replace spreadsheet-heavy workflows using Python, SQL, Snowflake/dbt/Airflow, and Anaplan.

Recently focused on applying LLMs to real workflows (financial analysis, variance commentary, lightweight agents on top of data pipelines).

Interested in applied AI / data-product roles or forward deployment. Strong bias toward practical systems and shipping end-to-end.

Happy to connect.

Seeking a junior/entry/mid role at a startup or contract work. I interned at Google and have worked with a YC-backed startup. I can do full stack and have interests in systems engineering, distributed systems, and AI engineering.

Most recently, I built an operating system that plays Pong (https://github.com/Daves1245/horizonOS). I'm currently working on implementing the transformer architecture from scratch, and plan to make my own inference engine as well. My other projects include a multiplayer leetcode site (https://ternarysearch.com) inspired by binarysearch.com, a discord bot to answer questions about a github repo using RAG, a shabby discord clone to learn system design, a community-driven site that vibe codes itself, and home labbing.
