I'm Zaki, a software engineer from Padang, Indonesia. I build websites, web applications and real-time GIS systems, and I like the hard part in the middle where performance, data and people meet.

I studied Informatics Engineering at Padang State University and graduated with a 3.60 GPA. Growing up on a coast that lives with tsunami risk shaped my thesis: Padang Rescue, an early warning and evacuation system that delivers alerts in 37 ms and reroutes people when shelters fill up. Along the way I have built a Next.js platform for international medical services, a ticketing frontend for a live events company, corporate websites in WordPress, and spatial data for a plantation WebGIS during my internship. I work in English and Indonesian, and I enjoy working closely with the people I build for.

Every project moves through the same four steps. How long each one takes changes. The order does not.

  1. 01.

    Understand

    First conversation

    I start with the people, not the stack: who will use this, what they need to get done and what success looks like for the business.

  2. 02.

    Plan

    Week one

    I write down the scope, the screens and the technology on a single page, so every decision after it has something clear to answer to.

  3. 03.

    Build

    Weeks two onwards

    I build in small, working pieces and share them early. You see real progress in the browser every week instead of a big reveal at the end.

  4. 04.

    Ship

    Launch and after

    I deploy, test on real devices, measure performance and stay close after launch to fix what the real world finds.

What I hold to

Four simple rules that shape every project I take on, whether it is a company website or a system people rely on in an emergency.

  • i.

    Clarity

    Simple code and plain explanations. If I cannot explain a technical choice in one sentence, it is probably the wrong one.

  • iii.

    Reliability

    Software should keep working when conditions are bad. I plan for weak signals, full servers and unexpected input.

  • ii.

    Speed

    Fast pages, fast alerts, fast replies. Performance is measured from the start, not patched in at the end.

  • iv.

    Curiosity

    From GIS to networking to AI, I keep learning outside my comfort zone and bring what I learn back to the work.
