Justin Susu Dong

Software Engineer

Hi! My name is Justin Susu Dong. I'm a software engineer focused on distributed systems and cloud computing. I live with my family and my dog, Pumpkin 🎃.

I primarily work in Scala, with extensive professional experience across the JVM including Kotlin and Java, as well as Python. I also have exposure to Go and frontend development.

I enjoy building resilient backend architectures and have contributed to open-source projects like Apache Hudi. Much of my work involves event-sourced systems and distributed architectures built with Akka.

As a personal project, I built HappyFarm (), a chat application used by my family and close friends. It is a full-stack Scala implementation built with ZIO on the backend and Laminar on the frontend. The service is running privately — if you're curious to try it, feel free to reach out and I can share an access token.
