About
Let me introduce myself
I’m MARCUS PEH, a Computer Science (honors) graduate from National University of Singapore. My passion lies in software engineering, and I find joy in writing code to tackle practical challenges. From my early days of programming in Python during National Service, I have been captivated by the ability of software to solve real-world problems. I firmly believe in the transformative power of programming, and I am dedicated to leveraging it to enhance the lives of people globally.
I find great satisfaction in tackling complex problems and devising efficient and scalable solutions. In fact, during a previous internship, I successfully enhanced API performance by an astounding 200x, which highlighted my ability to optimize systems and improve overall efficiency.
As I continue to grow as a Software Engineer, I am constantly seeking new challenges and opportunities to expand my skills. I am particularly focused on leveraging my expertise to develop high-performance applications that address real-world issues and provide users with exceptional experiences.

Project
Here’s some of my awesome projects
Around the World in $80
Java
JavaFX
Splitting bills during travel is often a hassle. Most travel groups often designate one person to pay. This method of settling payments poses a vexing task of splitting costs at the end of the day or on the spot. Our app effectively splits bills between different contacts to serve this purpose.
Points Of Sales System
MongoDB
ReactJs
NodeJs
Designed with both the business and consumers interest at heart. It incorporates a online web system to help store manage their sales and inventory as well as a telegram bot to help users check for stock in stores.
Splitlux
Flutter
Django
React Native
Build using Flutter and Django, Splitlux targets travellers in sight of borders opening from the pandemic. It aims to expedites the process by splitting and monitoring bills in an efficient manner during travel.
MediClear
NextJs
TypeScript
Chakra UI
Design to simplify health checkup report, MediClear is an easy to use platform that provides clear and contextualized test results. Apart from simplified test result, it also provides lifestyle management tips for the user.
To Do Manager
ReactJs
NextJs
Postgres
This to-do manager is designed as 2 separate parts for backend and frontend for scalability. The backend provides API for the frontend to call. Sensitive information such as password is done securely by encrypting the data before sending to the backend.Hash is also done before storing the data.
Gardner Mini Chess AI
Python
Implemented to solve Gardner's Mini Chess, this AI is designed using Alpha-Beta Pruning. To balance between response and performance, Alpha-Beta Pruning is done to a max depth of 4. It achieves 100% win/draw rates against other intelligent agents.
