Software Developer

Hi, I'm Lance Abuan

Full-stack developer and AI enthusiast. I build enterprise-scale systems, chess engines that teach themselves, and everything in between.

About Me

What I Do

Enterprise Software

3 years at Paycom building enterprise HR platforms — designing custom fields engines, leading front-end migrations across 200+ stakeholders, and engineering data migrations for $1M+ ARR clients.

Full-Stack Development

5+ years with PHP, TypeScript, React, Python, Java, and C#. I work across the stack from scalable backends to polished frontends, with Docker, Kubernetes, and MySQL in between.

AI & Machine Learning

Building AlphaZero-style chess engines, reinforcement learning environments, and intelligent systems. I love teaching machines to learn from scratch through self-play.
