Vu Pham

Vu Pham holds a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering, Magna Cum Laude, from the University of Texas at Arlington.

Before beginning his engineering and technology career, Vu served as a U.S. Navy Hospital Corpsman Veteran, with deployment for Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom. In addition to providing emergency medical care in a combat environment, he served as Medical Supply Petty Officer in Charge, responsible for ordering and maintaining $30 million worth of medical supplies in support of combat operations — an experience that forged his discipline, precision, and leadership under pressure.

Vu is a licensed Professional Civil Engineer in both Texas and Washington State. As Principal Civil Engineer of Puget Sound CE, LLC in Lacey, WA, he provides civil design services to local, state, and federal agencies for major highway and capital improvement projects. His engineering expertise spans roadway, drainage, dewatering, water, and wastewater design, including the preparation of plans, specifications, and estimates.

In parallel, Vu has built a distinguished career as a software architect, developer, and consultant. Over more than a decade working alongside Thien Pham, he has developed enterprise software and assisted with patent development, with a focus on security and digital marketing. His rapid application development methodology has consistently cut time-to-market and reduced costs for clients across industries.

As the technical mind behind an early IP Telephony platform, Vu built and maintained the infrastructure that connected users between the U.S. and Vietnam. He led the engineering of an electronic prescription platform — enabling physicians to transmit prescriptions directly to pharmacies — before it was acquired by a publicly traded firm. He architected a pharmacy software system that helped a client grow from $3 million to $30 million in revenue within a single year, and later served as CTO of Moophi, a web-based operating system sold to a public company within three months of launch.

Vu led the technical development of a large-scale Infotainment platform delivering Streaming TV, Internet, Movies, and IP Telephone — successfully deployed as a $5.5 million system in a 150-bed hospital. Using the fewest possible servers and devices to reduce costs, he implemented hospital-wide networks capable of streaming video, audio, network communications, and bedside applications at scale.

Vu brings this rare combination of military service, civil engineering excellence, and deep software expertise to F9 Networks, where he serves as Chief Technology Officer, overseeing infrastructure architecture, network engineering, and platform security.
