AI Engineer & Product Builder

Terry Tan

I build AI agents and production systems that ship. 3+ years of LLM pipelines and autonomous agent workflows, and 5+ years of full-stack applications, from startups to enterprise-backed environments. Also deep in blockchain protocols and onchain systems.

Jarvis

AI
Production

Self-hosted AI assistant on the Hermes agent framework: multi-model routing via private/anonymous AI inference, persistent memory with Honcho, cron agents, browser automation, and code execution. Running 24/7.

Glance

AI
Beta

AI research app that turned podcasts and video into structured investment research. Pipeline: audio capture → transcription → LLM extraction → insight output. Shipped as a beta on the App Store; killed after a few months due to lack of product-market fit.

  • Transcription
  • LLM extraction
  • Research pipeline

Authentick

Blockchain
Venture

Technical product lead on a Temasek-backed venture. Rapid prototyping across blockchain wallets, NFTs, and account abstraction through beta and technical due diligence.

Independent AI Builder / Sabbatical

Currently based in Singapore
  • Built Jarvis, a production AI assistant from scratch on the Hermes agent framework. Multi-model LLM routing via private/anonymous AI inference, persistent memory (Honcho), cron-based autonomous agents, and parallel subagents for research workflows. Self-hosted for maximum privacy, running 24/7.
  • Built Glance, an AI research app that turned podcasts and video into structured investment research: audio capture → transcription → LLM extraction → insight output. Launched as a beta on the App Store but killed it after a few months due to lack of product-market fit.
  • Researched Decentralized Finance protocols, with a focus on onchain perpetual futures and options.

Product Engineer

BlinkAI · San Francisco
  • Developed an autonomous social engagement platform from concept to beta. Agents analyzed live trends and generated context-aware posts without human supervision.
  • Built a multi-provider agent pipeline with per-task model routing across LLMs, using live market and social data from Santiment, CoinGecko, and X as inputs.
  • Replaced a manual, hours-long agent setup process with a guided chat flow, cutting configuration time to under 3 minutes.

Product Engineer

Hired by Liminal in my 4th year at NUS for engineering and blockchain expertise, which was rare in 2022. The research role stated below continued alongside this job.
Liminal (Temasek) · Singapore
  • Co-led development of three AI and Web3 products from blank page to launch, across product strategy, user research, and technical delivery inside Temasek's emerging-tech venture studio.
  • Co-led Authentick Technologies as technical product lead through beta and technical due diligence.
  • Built high-availability backend systems handling thousands of concurrent users across multiple product lines.

Blockchain Researcher

National University of Singapore · Singapore
  • Wrote research articles on blockchain bridges and DeFi, covering protocol design, cross-chain risk, and market structure.
  • Researched Layer 1 blockchains and perpetual futures, from execution and consensus tradeoffs to how leverage and liquidations work in practice.
  • Ran a proprietary liquid token investing fund driven by tokenomics, onchain flow, macro-analysis, etc.

Full-Stack Software Engineer
