Amelia Tay

Aspiring Product Engineer

I aim to build highly intuitive user experiences on useful digital products for everyone

About

Throughout university, I spent a lot of time talking to people, joining clubs and events, and generic researching to figure out what I could possibly be interested in. I've explored management consulting, software engineering, presales, and even solutions architecture.

Eventually, a friend asked why I never considered product despite leading my university's product community and I just stared blankly - "I'm not sure".

"But that makes a lot of sense".

Fast forward several internships and quarter-life crises later, I now aim to build useful and intuitive products that solve real problems and make someone's day even just that little bit easier. I'm keen to work out solutions that create connections with users and make them forget the days before they got acquainted with the product.

Simultaneously, I've slowly gotten interested in the technology behind digital solutions that run our lives, so I don't want to just abandon software engineering to jump into product. Instead, I hope to marry these two and seek out a role in product engineering.

My end goal is to work on both product and engineering for a solution that I believe in, with a team that I have trust in.
