roles:
- Software Engineer (IoT platform)
- DevOps Engineer
location: Semarang, Indonesia
education: Politeknik Negeri Semarang, Teknologi Rekayasa Komputer
focus:
- IoT Platform Engineering
- Backend & Full-Stack Development
- DevOps & Observability
- Application Security- Most of my work is IoT. I write ESP32 firmware, and behind it I build the MQTT ingestion services, ClickHouse storage, device configuration, data exports, and web dashboards.
- I also run the servers for that platform. They're managed with Ansible and Docker and connected over a self-hosted Headscale (Tailscale) network. Traefik sits in front, Grafana, Loki, and Beszel collect logs and metrics, and CrowdSec and fail2ban block attacks. I test the database backups by restoring them, and one service ships through CI/CD with blue/green deploys.
- My other role is DevOps engineer, where I handle deployments and monitoring for production services.
