"Tell me about yourself..."
To be honest with you, I've always been struggling answering this on any interviews. I feel like it's always the same answer and I'm afraid that I bore people. Until I realized, I'm very lucky to have gone this journey and become who I am now. So here's a bit of it.
My journey's been a bit of a rollercoaster. I started my university in Indonesia for 3 years, and then hopped over to the Netherlands for double degree programme. All the way from Indonesia to the Netherlands, for someone who's never been away from the family and friends, that's a bit tough. In fact, the Netherlands is the first country abroad I've ever visited in my whole life. But here I am, I finish up my graduation project. And then, boom, graduated!
My career is started right after the graduation as a fullstack developer. But guess what? Along the way, I discovered my passion for frontend development. I'm all about the nitty-gritty details, showcasing my creations, and teaming up with UX wizards to bring their designs to life.
When I'm not coding my way through the digital realm, you'll find me pumping iron at the gym or embarking on epic foodie adventures. I'm on a mission to taste every local dish on any countries I'm visiting. It's practically a crime for me to indulge in anything non-local when I'm out travelling. Oh, and don't forget the cocktail bars, I'm on a crawl to find the best mixes in town, always. Life's an exciting journey, and I'm just soaking it all in!

Frontend Developer
Working within a company at this large scale has been a valuable learning experience, especially in terms of collaborating with multiple teams and stakeholders, handling incident management, and more. In my daily work routine, a significant part involves conducting A/B testing for our features. This not only ensures that our features add value but also serves as a way of identifying any edge case bugs that may have been overlooked in automatic or manual testing. In addition to enhancing my technical skills, I have the opportunity to cultivate my leadership abilities. I have taken on the role of a mentor for several junior developers who recently joined the company. Of course I face lots of challenges at work. Building/maintaining a website used by millions of people daily means that even small mistakes can have significant consequences. Working with teams from different departments and countries can lead to delays, and occasional overlaps in our work may impact each other. Effective stakeholder management becomes crucial in resolving such issues.
Funda B.V
Frontend Developer / Scrum Master (2020)
Once I discovered that I really enjoy working on the frontend, I joined Funda. Here, I can focus on improving my frontend development skill as a pure frontend developer. Driven by my desire to move fast, in 2020, I took on the role of being the scrum master for my team. I aim to help the team progress, work more efficiently, and get more done. After four years being in this amazing company, I recognize it's time for a new challenge to further my skill improvement journey.
Shopkorting.nl
Fullstack Developer
Shopkorting.nl was a startup when I joined and I felt very challenged to be the only developer in the team. The responsibility was really big to me, considering I just had 1 year experience before I came here. But this allowed me to grow and get to know many things.
