Hi, I'm Terry Lee

About Terry Lee

Software is easy; systems are hard. In 30 years across bioinformatics, finance, and decentralised identity, I have learned that the most resilient architectures are the most logical.

I thrive as an Engineering Leader and Technical Architect for organisations where data is the core product. I specialise in removing the friction of fragmentation—architecting disparate data sources into unified, scalable ecosystems.

Recent winner of the 2025 Global vLEI Hackathon. I designed a solution automating digital credentials for MSME financing, proving that verifiable data can solve massive real-world liquidity gaps.

I don’t just move data; I engineer its meaning. My work focuses on data mobility and interoperability (HL7, FHIR, vLEI) to ensure systems communicate without human intervention. This is about creating high-integrity data contracts that survive scale.

I select the right tool for the job: Elixir (Phoenix/Ash) for concurrency, Python (FastAPI) for speed, or AWS for cloud-native orchestration. My code is built for high performance and low maintenance. Technologies come and go, but the principles of operational excellence and systemic simplicity remain, especially so in this age of AI. I apply deep engineering vigour to turn technical product bottlenecks into predictable, automated value.

I am at my best when translating traditional business complexity into modern, AI-augmented infrastructure. Let’s connect if you are building for the next decade.
