The boring employee at a laptop with books, plants, and coffee

About

Hi, I’m Long Do.

An engineer, a builder, a writer, and a (slightly) boring employee.

The short version

I’m a software engineer and engineering manager with 15+ years of experience, currently based in Vietnam. Most of my day is about helping teams ship reliable software. The rest of it goes into small tools, notes, and experiments — published here.

“Boring” is a compliment in my book: predictable systems, clear trade-offs, and code that the next person can actually read. This site is where that philosophy gets applied to side projects, money, and life.
