About

Hi, I'm Wesley Zhang - a Software Engineer at Sidekicker, currently based in Melbourne, Australia. I graduated from RMIT University with a Master's degree in Computer Science.

Starting my career in 2013, I built web applications using Ruby and Java for about two years. Now I am mainly focused on PHP, Laravel and AWS. I've worked on quite a few Laravel projects in the past five years, including:

  • E-Commerce Websites (e.g. Birkenstock, Sticky)
  • Time Critical and Temperature Sensitive Courier and Cargo Solutions
  • Novated Leasing and Salary Packaging Services
  • Data Analysis & Tunnel Management Software
  • Governance Research & Engagement System

This journal is where I share my thoughts on programming, the challenges and interesting problems I come across every day at work. I am passionate about new technologies, best practices, architecture and code designs, and always strive to build highly functional and maintainable products.
