Robert Tirtasentana is a Senior Machine Learning Engineer based in Melbourne with a decade of experience building production-grade systems across React, React Native, Node.js, Python, Kotlin and cloud-native DevOps on GCP and Kubernetes. He has a strong track record at fintech and consumer platforms—driving integrations and feature launches at Cash App/Afterpay and now building fraud detection and GenAI tooling at Block. Robert is comfortable spanning the stack from frontend design systems and TypeScript migrations to backend services and ML-data integrations, and he has repeatedly improved team velocity and product stability through pragmatic workflow and architecture changes. He also founded InfoSore and co-founded a fintech startup, demonstrating product intuition and the ability to translate regulatory requirements into technical solutions. An uncommon strength is his blend of hands-on engineering with cross-functional collaboration—working directly with analysts and modelers to operationalize new data sources and heuristics. He holds computer science degrees from RMIT and Swinburne and brings entrepreneurial grit alongside enterprise delivery experience.
