Character History

Background

Hello, I'm Curtis Liu. I was born and raised in San Francisco and developed an interest in technology that eventually grew into a career spanning cloud engineering and software development.

I enjoy understanding how systems work, building things from the ground up, and continuously expanding beyond the technologies I use in my day-to-day work. Outside of my professional work, I spend a lot of my time learning through personal projects, programming, and experimenting with game development.

Work History

My professional experience is centered around cloud engineering, AWS, automation, and customer experience technologies. Much of my work has involved designing and implementing cloud-based contact center solutions using technologies such as Amazon Connect, Lambda, Lex, APIs, and system integrations.

Over time, I've become increasingly interested in the software engineering side of those systems as well — not just configuring infrastructure, but understanding and building the applications, integrations, and automation that sit around it.

Current Focus & Goals

  • Building full-stack applications and strengthening my TypeScript and software development skills
  • Deepening my knowledge of AWS architecture and cloud-native application design
  • Learning Terraform and infrastructure as code through hands-on projects
  • Continuing to learn C# and explore game development as a long-term hobby
  • Building projects that combine cloud infrastructure, automation, and software engineering
