LLM Agent Dev Intern @ Cyber SG R&D Programme Office
- Plexus — I'm building a collaborative workspace where teammates can supervise coding agents together, share sessions, approve actions, and review changes. Currently developing the desktop experience and onboarding.
- Agent evaluation @ Cyber SG R&D Programme Office — working on evaluating agent behaviour and evidence grounding, including how agents handle incomplete or conflicting information.
- Agent infrastructure @ Cyber Sierra — built tools for querying production codebases and a customer-facing knowledge agent that uses code-cited evidence and checks generated guides before publication. Refusing well turned out to be harder than answering well.
I build agent systems and the tools to understand where they fail. I'm interested in how people supervise them, how they use evidence, and whether an evaluation actually tells us what to improve.
My earlier work includes high-throughput data pipelines at eLife (AWS SQS, gRPC, Kubernetes), ETL infrastructure at Netvirta (AWS EKS, 100k+ SKU onboarding), and a document ingestion pipeline for Skills@CCDS with schema-constrained extraction and human verification.
I started in low-latency market infrastructure. Deterministic replay, isolated state, and measuring behaviour are still useful instincts when working with agents.
- NTU URECA — building and evaluating scientific-agent workflows, with a focus on reliability, evidence quality, and resource use.
- Algoverse — exploring shared blind spots in multi-agent safety evaluation and how evidence selection affects reviewers' judgments. Research in progress.
