Available for senior backend roles

Hi, I'm Dimas. Senior Software Engineer (Backend)

Backend engineer building scalable, event-driven systems in Go and Python.

Senior backend engineer with 7+ years designing and shipping distributed systems in Golang and Python. I build event-driven microservices with Kafka, NATS, RabbitMQ and Google Pub/Sub, and I ship REST, GraphQL, and gRPC APIs with a strong bias toward performance, observability, and clean architecture. Currently at PasarPolis (insurtech), previously at Bhinneka, PLN Icon+, Hukumonline, and TaniHub. I care about code quality, mentoring, and making systems that stay simple as they grow.
