Before his vice-presidentship, he served as a member of the Legislative Yuan for eighteen years from 2002 to 2020.

After graduating from the Lee-Ming Institute of Technology, Lee earned an M.E. and Ph.D. in structural engineering from Nihon University in Japan. His doctoral dissertation, written in Japanese, was titled, "ダフィング型応力-ひずみ非線形を有するはり部材の力 学挙動に関する研究" (English: A study of nonlinear stress and strain phenomena of nonlinear duffing as applied to the mechanical behavior of beams).[4] After receiving his doctorate, Lee briefly taught engineering at Nihon University, then returned to Taiwan to work as an architect.[5]
