Vlad Yun
Full-Stack Developer & Aspiring HFT Engineer
I create engaging digital experiences with clean code and thoughtful design. Passionate about building technology that solves real problems and delights users.
Based in Hong Kong SAR, China, working globally with teams and clients across different industries.
My Journey
I started my journey into technology and creativity at a young age, fascinated by how computers and the internet were changing the world. This early curiosity led me to explore programming, design, and digital media.
After completing my computer science degree, I dove into the world of web development, where I found my passion for creating interactive and user-friendly digital experiences. I've worked with startups, agencies, and established companies, each experience adding new dimensions to my skills and perspective.
Today, I focus on building full-stack applications that combine technical excellence with thoughtful design. I'm particularly interested in the intersection of technology and creativity, exploring how code can be used as a medium for expression alongside traditional creative disciplines.
Outside of work, I'm an avid music producer, creating electronic and ambient tracks that reflect my love for digital and analog sound design. This creative practice informs my technical work, bringing a sense of composition and rhythm to the digital experiences I build.
