He has a research-minded CS background from Saarland University, with work on AI planning and display/frame-rate projects, which informs his methodical approach to complex systems. Known for shipping reliable services (99.95% API uptime) and delivering measurable savings (31% infra cost reduction, 49% transaction cost cut), he thrives on turning regulatory and reliability constraints into pragmatic engineering outcomes. Based in Depok, Indonesia, he’s a maker and self-learner who retains a strong technical foothold while scaling teams and systems.
