Informatics Engineer | IT Infrastructure & Automation

Versatile Informatics Engineering graduate from Universitas Mercu Buana specializing in IT infrastructure, network optimization, computer vision research, and AI-driven automation.

About Me

I'm a versatile Informatics Engineering graduate from Universitas Mercu Buana (GPA 3.90/4.00) with proven expertise in IT infrastructure, system automation, and cross-platform integrations. I am proficient in scripting workflows using Python (BERT-NLP, computer vision) and PowerShell, managing relational databases, and configuring self-hosted platforms like ZoneMinder.

Beyond IT support, I run an advanced self-hosted homelab stack including Proxmox VE virtualization, Docker Compose, HAProxy routing, Tailscale networking, and Cloudflare Tunnels. My engineering philosophy is built around data ownership, automating repetitive tasks, and robust, self-hosted service architecture.
