Hello! Super happy to welcome you on this platform!
I'm an Associate Director of Engineering at Agoda, and honestly — I'm just a huge nerd about engineering management. With over a decade spent building and leading tech teams, I've figured out that managing engineers isn't about code, it's about people.
During my journey — learning (and sometimes struggling!) to become a better leader — I realized how crucial it is to share experiences. That's exactly why I created this engineering management course: to help fellow nerds navigate the jump from engineer to manager without all the stress.
At EM.SH, I break down real-world engineering management into simple, practical tips and stories. No buzzwords, no jargon — just clear advice on how to lead teams, build trust, and level up your career.
