Zufar Dhiyaulhaq is a Senior Engineering Manager with a decade of experience designing and operating cloud-native infrastructure across data centers and multiple public clouds, currently leading cloud migration and platform efforts at GoTo Group. He has driven large-scale migrations (AWS/GCP to Alibaba Cloud) that reduced cloud spend by ~40–50%, refactored data centers onto Kubernetes to achieve near-zero incidents, and built self-service platforms for mesh, API gateway, and observability that abstract mTLS and reduce infra touch to zero. A hands-on former Cloud Platform Engineer, he has deep expertise in OpenStack, Istio service mesh, Kubernetes, and API gateway automation—contributing to the widely used istio/istio project on protocol analysis, certificate checks, and istioctl tooling. He balances compliance-driven work for payments (PCI/DSS, ISO) with developer experience improvements like multicluster DR and developer portals, and has led community initiatives such as Kubernetes Community Days Indonesia. Based in Central Java, Indonesia, Zufar combines pragmatic engineering with community leadership, often surfacing operational issues before they impact production.
