About Rowell

Rowell Pica is a Full-stack Software Engineer and Tech Lead.

He writes codes and he thinks he writes good ones. He started his professional career way back 2009 after graduating BS Computer Science from the University of Santo Tomas (Manila). He has more than a decade worth of technical experience working on different systems; doing design, system architecture, coding and understanding user requirements.

Rowell has good experience working with computer vision related Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) technology. He created an image similarity detection system for a Social Shopping Platform by integrating multiple ML models together.

Rowell co-designed and implemented a distributed application running on top of a blockchain consortium. The platform enables the efficient buying and selling of products without revealing sensitive data.

When he's not in front of his computer, he's with his guitar or out with his friends having some drinks. He also watches (a lot of) anime and TV series in his free time. He is usually on Japanese ski resorts during cold winter weekends.

Rowell lives in Quezon City, Metro Manila, Philippines.
