Hey, I'm Kevin! ๐Ÿ‘‹

I'm a Software Engineer II at Gojek, currently working on backend development for the Transport team.

I've always enjoyed learning about technology and understanding how things work. Lately, I've been spending more of my free time exploring the fundamentals behind the systems we use every day, partly so I can tell when AI is confidently wrong ๐Ÿ˜„.

Outside of software engineering, I've also been getting interested in economics and learning more about how the world works.

I'm currently exploring opportunities to work abroad, meet new people, and experience engineering in a different environment.
