Summary
Cahya Hikmawan is a Senior Site Reliability Engineer with 9 years of experience building and operating cloud-native infrastructure and CI/CD pipelines, primarily on GCP. He has led migrations from Aliyun/AWS to GCP, standardized delivery with Istio/ArgoCD/Flagger, and maintained high-availability observability stacks (Grafana, Loki, Thanos, Cortex, VictoriaMetrics). Comfortable across DevOps tooling—Terraform, Ansible, Jenkins, GitHub Actions—he also drives incident response, on-call practices, and cost-efficiency optimizations. His background as a web developer and lab administrator gives him a pragmatic, systems-first perspective and a knack for automating repetitive work (hence the self-described “Lazy Coder”). Based in Jakarta, he blends hands-on implementation with cross-team DevOps evangelism to make large-scale services more reliable and maintainable.
