About
An engineer. A builder. A teammate.
I'm Indra Hermawan, a senior full-stack engineer and technical lead based in Jakarta. Since 2011, I've delivered web applications, APIs, and enterprise platforms across education, messaging, commerce, healthcare, and public-sector projects.
My work connects the details of implementation with the bigger product picture: backend services, useful interfaces, deployment pipelines, and the decisions that help a team deliver consistently.
