👋 Hi, I'm Grimmer Kang Linkedin

Tech Lead at Fireflies.ai, building agentic AI systems and LLM architecture for meeting intelligence at scale.

15+ years in software engineering, with a physics background (BS + MS). I've worked across AI, medical imaging, astronomy (CARTA, an international C++/JS open-source project at Academia Sinica), IoT, and streaming — primarily in TypeScript, Python, and C/C++.

Beyond code, I've built and led mobile and full-stack engineering teams and introduced Agile practices across organizations.

Currently into: LLM agent architecture, RAG systems, context engineering, MCP tooling · Contributor to the MCP TypeScript SDK

Speaker at FOSSASIA 2025 · PyCon TW · PyCon APAC · COSCUP | grimmer.io
