Quite the average bloke, actually.
Going head over heels —and back again— in digital & IT.
Open to new, exciting possibilities that provide for character development.
Pleased to e-meet you. I'm a C-level Technology Leader with 22+ years in banking IT, including tenure as managing director of IT & digital at Indonesia’s largest bank ($120B assets, $3.5B profit) with strong audit and control background. Oversaw digital systems used by 170 million customers across 10,000+ outlets in 5 countries, managing over $500M in annual IT budget. Led enterprise-wide AI adoption, modernized & consolidated 400+ legacy platforms, and unified architecture across subsidiaries. Drove regulatory alignment (FSA, central bank), national-scale financial inclusion, and digital transformation for state-owned enterprises. Built digital resilience and delivered measurable results across retail, wholesale, and ultra-micro segments.
I'm a CMU (CS '11) & Binus (TI '99) alum, technology enthusiast, a lover of long drives, a Quoran (albeit just as an avid reader), not a fan of any sports, and a happy and thankful father of two and a spouse of one. My favorites include WIRED Magazine, IFTTT, noodles, beating personal commute records, detective stories, witty comedy, Trevor Noah and Stephen Colbert, House, M.D., Big Bang Theory, and Chandler from Friends. Studied French in the past just because I like how it sounds. Past professional experiences range from web app development, IT audit, internal controller, DBA & report development, IT strategy & planning, business development, wholesale transaction banking, and retail payment.Touched a slug once; would prefer not to do it again.
