Fresh Computer Engineering grad here. If you were in my shoes, what small project or startup would you build for the Malaysian market?
Hi everyone,
I recently graduated with a degree in Computer Engineering, and while I’m navigating the fresh grad job hunt, I really want to channel my energy into building my own startup, or at least a solid side project.
I have a fairly broad technical background. I'm comfortable with full-stack web development. I’ve previously tried financial technology projects, but wanted to focus on something more locally.
- If you had my skill set and were starting fresh in Malaysia today, what would you build?
- What are some uniquely Malaysian problems (in fintech, logistics, agriculture, daily life, etc.) that you think are desperately waiting for a tech solution?
- Should I focus purely on software, or is there an untapped market for hardware/robotics solutions here?
I'm open to any harsh truths, industry insights, or random ideas you might have. Thanks in advance!
