I keep systems up and shipping, from bare-metal racks to backend APIs.

    Infrastructure Engineer

    Mekari·Central Jakarta, Indonesia (Hybrid)

    • Helped run an in-place microk8s upgrade (v1.24 to v1.34) and an ingress migration from NGINX to Traefik during an after-hours window. The team converted 33 ingresses, restored 32 services to healthy, and re-pointed the API gateway upstream to the new port.
    • Executed client deployments and data migrations, importing databases from shared multi-tenant instances into dedicated client instances, on clusters managed with Argo CD (app-of-apps) and Helm.
    • Built a reusable database-TTL service (Kubernetes CronJobs as a generic Helm chart, one per database) that cleared recurring disk alerts, and automated archiving of large application-log tables.
    • Diagnosed production incidents including a MongoDB crash loop caused by a full VM disk from unbounded container logs. Set log rotation and a log-file size limit, then pushed for a retention policy.
    • Took over a client's infrastructure end-to-end in October, driving env-drift fixes and pull requests, and coordinating with seniors, product, and infosec.
    • Integrated an internal AI agent and built a Google Chat API wrapper. Designed MCP tooling with a read-only default and a confirmation gate before writes.

    Data Center Engineer

    PT RackH Lintas Asia·South Jakarta, Indonesia

    • Built and ran a centralized monitoring and security platform (Security Onion, Grafana) across 2 bare-metal servers, giving the team a single view of production; flagged anomalous colocation traffic to the relevant division.
    • Helped resolve 3 major systems and network incidents inside the internal uptime SLA. Owned 2 hosting incidents end-to-end: a Proxmox server disk failure and a compromised shared hosting/cPanel server.
    • Led development of an internal Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) tool that replaced spreadsheet documentation and cut average documentation time by roughly 45%.

    Independent Software Engineer

    Self Employed·Cirebon, West Java

    • Engineered a Node.js automation toolset that migrated 524 domains to a new hosting platform in under 4 hours using parallel execution.
    • Ran production deployments on Linux VPS (Debian) with Docker, moving client projects from local dev into real environments.
    • Wrote Node.js automation for DNS configuration and system updates, cutting manual effort and config errors.
    • Built backend-heavy applications (Node.js, AdonisJS) covering database design, API integration, and server-side logic.
    • Delivered responsive Tailwind CSS interfaces that held up across devices.

    Sole Developer

    Santika Group (Agency Branch of AGP Studio)·Cirebon, West Java

    • Owned technical delivery for a new agency branch from concept through deployment.
    • Built custom client web applications: database schema design with Drizzle ORM, API development, and frontend.
    • Advised agency leadership on technical feasibility for client pitches.
  5. mainmerge← feature/santikaJul 2024 - Oct 2025

    IT Staff

    AGP Studio·Cirebon, West Java

    • Built centralized telemetry across multiple VPS environments over SSH port tunneling and wired it into SigNoz, which cut incident resolution time by about 80%.
    • Kept internal systems available by monitoring server health and performance for the design team.
    • Diagnosed and fixed hardware and software bottlenecks on resource-heavy CAD workstations.
    • Standardized software deployment and license management for CAD and design toolkits.

Systems built to stay up, handle load, and stay easy to work on.

deploy-receiver: self-hosted auto-rollback deploys

Self-hosted deploy receiver for Docker Compose. Verifies signed GitHub webhooks (HMAC-SHA256, constant-time comparison) and orchestrates a git → Docker build → compose up → health-check pipeline that automatically rolls back to the last known-good commit on failure.

Upload Dewek: edge-native DAM on Cloudflare

Serverless Digital Asset Management (DAM) API on Cloudflare's edge. Uploads go directly to R2 via S3 presigned POST, so ingestion is zero-compute. D1 holds metadata and Cloudflare Images applies transforms on the fly.

DCIM: rack and power management for a live data center

In-house DCIM console for a hosting company: racks, devices, PDUs, network ports, and power or port wiring in one place. Management IPs and VLANs are first-class data, every mutation is role-gated, and Vitest + Playwright cover the logic, deployed as a Docker Compose stack.

jenkins-migration: from webhook receiver to declarative pipeline

Replaced a hand-rolled deploy webhook with a declarative Jenkins pipeline: parallel lint/unit/E2E against throwaway MariaDB containers, SHA-tagged Docker builds, branch-gated dev/prod deploys with health-check rollback, and per-stage GitHub commit statuses. v2 (multibranch, shared library, build-once promotion) is designed.

I'm an Infrastructure Engineer at Mekari, operating single-tenant client environments on on-prem and private-cloud Kubernetes clusters. The work runs from in-place cluster upgrades and an ingress migration, through Argo CD and Helm deploys and database migrations, to production incident response.

That operational work sits on a backend and bare-metal foundation: I still build services in Node.js and TypeScript, and I've run the physical layer too, from Proxmox virtualization and RAID to ISP-facing networking. For observability I lean on Grafana, the LGTM stack, Prometheus, and SigNoz, and I'm studying toward the Google Cloud Associate Cloud Engineer certification.

The work changes week to week: triaging a production incident, automating an infrastructure migration, keeping a monitoring platform honest. It all comes back to visibility, reliability, and developer velocity.

Hey, I'm Diki, though my online friends know me as Tura. I'm 21, fiercely introverted IRL (pretty much terrified of crowds), but an absolute yapper online. I'm a listener by nature, constantly looking for intimacy and connection, whether that's through emotional bedroom pop or just sitting in Roblox social maps listening to strangers across the world share their life stories.

My aesthetic safe space is anything pastel pink or blue. I've mostly traded anime for binge-watching movies like Gone Girl and Oldboy, or series like Mr. & Mrs. Smith. I love the outdoors purely for the scenery; just keep the people away from me (anxiety hits like a truck).

I am unapologetically obsessed with cats. My setup is entirely fueled by caffeine: normally a matcha or mocha, but if deadlines are breathing down my neck, I'm surviving on a double-shot oatmilk latte with zero sugar.
