Introduction
Hey there! Welcome to my page. My name is Pieter Cardillo Kwok, a software engineer whose focus right now is on the backend of web apps.
I graduated with a business degree in 2022 and decided to pivot into tech. On this site, I try to document how I got started, what I’ve learned, and my journey as a software engineer thus far
Thanks for visiting my page!
Past Experiences
Agile Technica
My first technical position started at the beginning of Feb 2023 when I landed an internship as a Back-end engineer at Agile Technica, an IT consultancy firm focused on building ERP systems. Our primary framework for ERP solutions is Python-based, using Frappe, and for deployment we used AWS.

Startup Oi
In July 2022 right when I was finishing my Bachelor's Degree in Business Management, I took a part-time role as a Business Development Specialist at Startup Oi, a Vietnamese social media platform focused on the tech job market.
Around the same time, I also enrolled in Harvard's CS50x (opens in a new tab) Introduction to Computer Science. This course has introduced me to the basics of programming and given me foundational knowledge in computer science.
To cement this new skill, I’ve built a simple Chrome Extension to help with some of the tedious tasks at Startup Oi mainly by manipulating LinkedIn’s DOM using JavaScript. For more context and detail, click the link below!
