Chuck Chen
Frontend engineer · Tokyo
I build thoughtful things, and chase good light.
About
Seven years building software in Shanghai — most recently as a frontend expert at Alibaba, and before that a frontend engineer at ByteDance, where I worked across big-data, cloud-native, and AI platforms: from an AI-agent builder to large-model training and inference. I care about fast, well-crafted interfaces and clean abstractions. Now based in Tokyo — writing in three languages and photographing whenever the light is good.
