I build the logistics systems that move Southeast Asia's e-commerce forward — and the teams that keep them running.
Profile
“I'm an engineering manager based in Jakarta, currently leading logistics engineering for TikTok Shop across Southeast Asia. My work sits where distributed systems meet real-world logistics — the kind of domain where a bad deploy doesn't just throw an error, it delays someone's package.
Over eight years, I've come to believe the hard part of this job is rarely the technology. It's building teams that can hold a system's complexity in their heads, make sound tradeoffs under pressure, and keep shipping through campaigns that double traffic overnight.
Architecture that survives contact with 80,000 requests a second — and engineers who leave a 1:1 clearer than they came in.
Lately that's meant investing heavily in AI-assisted engineering — not as a trend, but because knowledge discovery and review cycles are real bottlenecks at scale, and agents are good at collapsing them.
Experience
TikTok Shop · ByteDance
Engineering Manager, Southeast Asia Logistics · Jakarta
I lead two engineering teams — 11 engineers — responsible for the logistics platform behind TikTok Shop's Southeast Asia operations: 370 million weekly orders, 420,000+ active sellers, and coordination with 20+ third-party logistics providers across six countries.
I've pushed the team to adopt AI-assisted engineering — an internal knowledge base and agent tooling that measurably sped up how fast we ship and learn. With teams in the UK, we launched Collection by TikTok, folding in 10+ warehouses and cutting cost per order by over 70%. And when it came time to move the whole platform off GCP onto ByteCloud — databases, messaging, compute, Redis — we did it while still serving 2M+ daily orders at 99.9% uptime.
Tokopedia
Engineering Manager, Logistic Gateway · GTL · Kurir Rekomendasi · Jakarta
I led three engineering teams — 18 engineers — building Kurir Rekomendasi, Logistic Gateway, and GTL. We expanded delivery coverage to 11 major cities, mapped 2.5 million+ delivery routes, and grew Bebas Ongkir's market share more than threefold, past 95%.
I owned the integration layer connecting 15 third-party logistics providers — booking, tracking, webhooks, settlement — the plumbing that let Tokopedia and TikTok Shop fulfill orders together. A Cash on Delivery redesign I led cut failed deliveries by 92%, while COD's market share grew 500% alongside it. We kept shipping through Double Date, Black Friday, and Anniversary campaigns, scaling through 120%+ traffic growth without breaking stride.
