What I'm looking for

I'm looking for remote, English-speaking, cross-border teams where I can build scalable web products, real-time systems, and reliable APIs while continuing to deepen my AI, cloud, and full-stack engineering work.

I've built client-facing digital wedding, guestbook, and invitation products at Katsudoto.id using Vue.js, TypeScript, Laravel, MySQL, and Docker. I also delivered real-time event management features including QR check-in, dynamic greeting screens, and automated WhatsApp notifications.

I proactively resolved concurrent-access race conditions before launch, helping ensure zero event-entry failures under live concurrent load. By profiling ORM and raw SQL execution plans, removing N+1 patterns, and applying Redis caching, I've sustained high availability during peak event traffic.

Previously at PT Labani Media Nusantara, I was the sole developer across engineering initiatives, taking a Point of Sales system from greenfield design through deployment. I also audited and refactored three inherited B2B systems, addressing logical defects, data-integrity issues, and authentication vulnerabilities.

I build with JavaScript, TypeScript, PHP, Go, React, Vue, Laravel, PostgreSQL, and REST APIs, with hands-on AI work across AWS Generative AI, Google Cloud AI Agents, and MCP. I value clean, testable code, maintain 10+ open-source repositories, and work comfortably in async remote teams.
