Profile

Developer with an operational mindset.

I work at the intersection of software engineering, business-process analysis and practical product design.

I am strongest when a project needs more than CRUD: understand the workflow, identify the real bottleneck, and turn it into a simple, maintainable system.

After completing my Telkomsigma role in 2024, I returned to independent product development. I now build applications for cooperative finance, pharmacy operations and gold-zakat tracking.

Core focus

  • Business Flow Analysis
  • Backend Architecture
  • Database Design
  • Operational UI/UX
  • Debugging & Maintenance
  • Deployment Support

Featured products

Operational products built around real workflows.

From cooperative finance to pharmacy operations — systems designed for daily use, not demos.

Project 01 · Cooperative finance

FinNest

Sharing Prosperity, Strengthening Families

A transparent digital cooperative for members and administrators.

Problem

Records were distributed across forms and spreadsheets. Members had limited direct access to savings, installment and transaction information.

Solution

A centralized Laravel application with admin and member portals, structured transactions and downloadable reporting.

Core modules

  • Member Management
  • Compulsory Savings
  • Principal & Voluntary Savings
  • Loans & Installments
  • Purchase Agreements
  • Transaction History
  • Financial Reports
  • Member Portal

My contribution

Product definition, business rules, database schema, backend development, UI refinement, debugging, MySQL migration, local/semi-production setup and PDF exports.

  • Laravel
  • PHP
  • MySQL
  • Tailwind CSS
  • Vite
  • Alpine.js

Active development

Project 02 · Pharmacy operations

Apotek Siaga

Operational system for branches 24 and 25

Turning a fragmented Excel workflow into a structured operational system.

Problem

Operational data lived across multiple workbooks. Medicine prices changed frequently, purchasing involved multiple PBF suppliers, and stock/history needed clearer traceability.

Solution

A modular web application designed around the real pharmacy workflow, starting with master data, purchases, pricing, sales, bills and cash flow.

Core modules & rules

  • Branch & PBF Data
  • Medicine Master
  • Purchases / DPB
  • Price Confirmation
  • OTC / Reg / VIP Prices
  • Medical Sales
  • Supplier Bills
  • Cash Flow
  • Batch & Expiry Planning
  • Returns & Stock Movement

My contribution

Direct business-process discovery, Excel/data analysis, medicine-pricing formulas, database modelling, incremental module planning, UI direction and Laravel implementation.

  • Laravel
  • MySQL
  • JavaScript
  • Data Migration
  • Business Analysis

Project 03 · Personal finance & zakat

Haul

Gold savings and zakat due-date tracker

Making the nearest gold-zakat obligation easy to trace.

Problem

The main difficulty is not simply calculating zakat, but tracing which gold holding is approaching its haul and which obligation should be prioritized.

Product direction

A mobile dashboard that records each gold purchase and surfaces the nearest haul, supported by price updates and practical notifications.

Planned data & features

  • Gregorian Purchase Date
  • Hijri Month / Haul Reference
  • Manufacturer & Weight
  • Quantity & Serial Number
  • CertiEye Evidence
  • Purchase Price
  • Daily Gold Price API
  • Nearest-Haul Dashboard
  • Priority & Notifications
  • Zakat Calculation Support

Product thinking

The scope is deliberately centered on the user's real pain point: tracing time and priority. Secondary features are added only when they support that decision.

Build the reminder and prioritization workflow first — not a large financial platform that distracts from the core problem.

  • Mobile Product
  • API Integration
  • Notification Design
  • Domain Modelling

Working approach

How I ship reliable operational software.

  1. 01

    Understand

    Study the operation before defining the system. Observe how users record information, make decisions and handle exceptions.

  2. 02

    Model

    Separate master data, transactions and history. Document calculations and operational constraints clearly.

  3. 03

    Deliver

    Build the highest-value workflow first. Test it with users, then expand without unnecessary complexity.

  4. 04

    Stabilize

    Prioritize validation, maintainability, backups, debugging and traceable reporting.
