I'm an Engineering Manager based in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. I write about engineering, leadership, and developer tooling at notes.calvinchoy.com.

I love improving my terminal setup and developer experience — diving into dotfile configs, cli tools, and optimizing workflows that were already fast enough.

When time allows, I also like to deepdive on concepts through books and resources on system design, software architecture, and engineering management, building the foundations that support my work.

I also do photography. You can see my work at photo.calvinchoy.com.
