Led significant technical initiatives while identifying and solving crucial business challenges during my NOC Indonesia internship.

Spearheaded the migration of a 100,000+ line codebase from JavaScript to TypeScript with Next.js, a challenging project that taught me the importance of systematic refactoring and maintaining backward compatibility.

Implemented frontend analytics using Amplitude, providing data-driven insights that led to a 25% improvement in user retention. This experience showed me the power of data in making informed product decisions.

Identified a critical business need for field sales force management, which led to the development of Fieldify as a side project.

Designed and implemented efficient API endpoints, focusing on optimizing data transfer and improving application performance. This involved careful consideration of data structures and query optimization.
