About

Background, working style, and what this site is for

Hi I'm Andy

I am a backend and integration engineer based in Indonesia. My professional background is centered on building systems that connect ERP, accounting, payment, and internal business platforms through reliable APIs, workflow automation, and maintainable backend services.

I work mainly with NestJS, Node.js, Golang, PostgreSQL, Redis, and Laravel. That foundation now shapes the direction I want to grow next: AI Engineering, especially LLM-powered applications, retrieval workflows, agentic systems, and AI features that need strong backend architecture behind them.

If you want a quick overview, start with my resume and projects.

Current Focus

  • AI engineering for practical product and internal-tool use cases
  • LLM applications, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and agent workflows
  • Combining solid backend, API, and integration fundamentals with AI-enabled systems

Why have this blog?

Because sharing is learning

This site serves three purposes: portfolio, resume, and engineering notes. I use it to document what I build, what I learn, and how I approach backend systems, integrations, and the transition toward AI engineering.

Beyond technical write-ups, I occasionally share thoughts about work, learning, and building a long-term engineering career in a fast-changing industry.
