I’m a software engineer. I build large-scale platforms, from ads and CRM to AI agents, and lead the teams that run them.

I spent twelve years at NBT, from founding engineer to director of engineering. I built AdiSON, a B2B ad platform, and headed its engineering through the company’s KOSDAQ listing. AdiSON is the largest rewarded-ad offerwall in Korea, with 45% market share and over 10 million monthly active users, and you’ll find it inside Naver Webtoon, Naver Pay, KakaoTalk, Toss, and Baemin.

At Datarize I worked on the foundation of its CRM marketing platform, including the API gateway, identity, and core services. I also developed new products on top of it, such as event-triggered and flow-based messaging.

These days I’m applying what years of running large, real-time backends taught me to AI agents. The goal is easy to state and hard to get right: an interrupted run should pick up where it left off, and a failure should tell you why.

These three fit together. Flink is where the agents run, OpenTelemetry is how you see what they did, and Temporal is how they recover when something breaks. I work on the seams between them.
