About

I'm Htun Linn Khant, a Backend and Full-Stack Developer from Myanmar, currently based in Malaysia. With more than four years of professional experience, I specialise in building backend systems, production APIs, and full-stack web applications that are designed to scale.

My core stack includes Node.js, NestJS, PostgreSQL, and Next.js on the backend and full-stack side, alongside Laravel and Python/Django for server-side work. I pay close attention to database design, query optimisation, and system architecture. On the delivery side I work with Docker, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud deployments to keep production systems reliable and maintainable.

My work has reduced API response times by up to 35%, scaled platforms to handle 50,000+ daily requests, and streamlined deployments through automation. I work well in collaborative, distributed teams where clean code and business impact matter.

Data Migration / Backend Platform

MongoDB to PostgreSQL Migration Platform

A migration platform designed to move large and continuously growing MongoDB datasets into PostgreSQL while preserving data integrity. Handles schema transformation, deduplication, validation, warning resolution, and final PostgreSQL export across datasets designed to scale to hundreds of thousands of records.

Engineering focus: reliable data integrity guarantees across schema transformation and incremental batch processing.

Retail / Business System

Multi-Branch POS & Inventory System

A multi-branch point-of-sale platform for retail operations. Each branch maintains independent stock while management accesses consolidated reporting. Covers sales history, inventory movement, stock adjustments, purchases, returns, expenses, supplier management, cashier shifts, RBAC, and audit logs.

Key challenge: isolated per-branch stock operations with consolidated cross-branch business visibility.
