— a developer who likes building things people actually enjoy using. Web apps, automation, and everything in between, from Jakarta.

I turn rough ideas into things that actually work, and make sure they feel good to use.

Most of my projects start with a small, annoying problem. Forgetting a daily attendance form, wanting a photobooth without renting one, or wishing there was a proper app for the street cats near my place. I build the smallest version that works, use it myself, and let real use decide what comes next.

I work across the whole stack, so nothing gets lost between design and code. On Meowshot I built the Go backend, the mobile app, and the server it runs on. And because I also write test automation for a banking app, I care about the part most people skip: making sure it still works next month.

I build web apps that feel smooth and fun to use, from interactive camera tools to motion-heavy sites that still load fast.

I automate the boring and the risky: repetitive daily tasks, and test suites that catch bugs before your users do.

In Numbers

Where I have worked and learned so far, counted in months. Most recent first.

2 Months at Bank Mandiri

Software Automation Test at PT Bank Mandiri Indonesia. October 2026 to present. Building automated tests for the mobile banking app, so every release is checked before it reaches customers.

3 Months at Siaga Abdi Utama

IT Quality Assurance at PT Siaga Abdi Utama. August 2026 to October 2026. Testing features end to end and reporting bugs clearly enough that they got fixed the first time.

3 Months Learning Go Backend

Golang Backend Development at PT Code Development Indonesia. January 2026 to March 2026. A learning program on building APIs in Go, which later became the backend behind Meowshot.

5 Months at Telkom Indonesia

Software Engineer at PT Telkom Indonesia. August 2024 to December 2024. Building and shipping features as part of a product team.

3 Months at Sangkuriang

System Analyst at PT Sangkuriang Internasional. June 2024 to August 2024. Turning business needs into clear requirements and system flows the developers could build from.

About Me

I'm Daniel, a developer from Jakarta. By day I write automated tests for Bank Mandiri's mobile banking app. Outside of that I build my own apps, like Nihondex for learning Japanese and Korean, and Meowshot for collecting street cats on a map.

Process

How a typical project moves from first call to launch.

01
Discover
Listening first: goals, audience, and constraints, so the problem is clear before anything is designed.
02
Define
Turning insight into direction: the concept, the structure, and the creative approach for the work.
03
Design & Build
Ideas take shape: visual identity, interaction, prototypes, and production-ready code.
04
Launch & Care
Shipping is the beginning: testing, refining, and supporting the work as it grows.
