James Win

Philosopher. Buddhist. Builder.

At 19, I founded Build Myanmar, the country's largest tech media company, and now at 23, I am building TalentOS, the verification layer for the labor market.

My work sits at the intersection of community, technology, and long-term nation building.

Mission

My life's goal is simple: rebuild Myanmar.

Not through politics.
Not through charity.

By building parallel systems that actually work:

Community-owned infrastructure
Skill-based identity and opportunity layer
Media, education, and capital for builders

Highlights — Some things I've built along the way:

• Built Myanmar's largest tech builder community (5,000+ members)
• Founded TalentOS, the verification layer for the labor market (10,000+ users)
• Grew media reach to 450K+ followers and 60M+ total views
• Opened Myanmar's first physical spaces for builders and entrepreneurs
• Produced Myanmar's most famous tech podcast

TalentOS

TalentOS is the verification layer for the labor market. We’re replacing traditional credentials with verified data from real work, so hiring runs on proof instead of claims. We are building an automated and meritocratic labor market where verified action data becomes the universal standard for employment.
