Hi there, I'm Lim Chee Kin 👋

Senior Tech Lead, AI Engineer, and Solution Architect passionate about Open-Source AI and Data Sovereignty.

I am a Senior Tech Lead, AI Engineer, and Solution Architect with over 25 years of experience in the software industry. My passion lies in building and leading teams to deliver advanced software solutions, with a recent intensive focus on Open-Source AI, Local AI Infrastructure, and Data Sovereignty. I am deeply committed to driving innovation through privacy-preserving and democratized AI, particularly for mobile-first applications.

• RAG.WTF: An open-source platform for private, personalized knowledge discovery and management using RAG systems.
• Talk To AI: A real-time voice AI application for low-latency (<300ms) interactions, with a flexible backend supporting local and cloud STT, LLM, and TTS services.
• Project Concord: A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that connects modern AI agents with legacy database schemas.

Long before focusing on AI, I worked on Fluwix (a Flutter showcase platform) and was an active contributor to the Grails Framework ecosystem. I developed and maintained over 10 plugins that helped developers and non-programmers build applications more efficiently.
