He has deep expertise in event-streaming ecosystems—managing Kafka, MirrorMaker, Zookeeper and Cruise Control—and has driven datastore automation for Redis and Elasticsearch in production. At Gojek he combined developer-first engineering with operational rigor to deliver cost-visibility, deployment automation, and observability improvements across cloud environments.
