About
Dicky Ibrohim —
Senior Engineering Partner
Principal engineer from Jakarta, Indonesia. Independent partner for production-grade backend systems, automation, and AI/RAG infrastructure. Trusted for high-traffic launches, viral spikes, and mission-critical operations.
Who I am
I'm Dicky Ibrohim — a senior principal engineer and independent engineering partner. I design and build high-scale backend systems, automation pipelines, and AI infrastructure for startups, agencies, and enterprise teams worldwide.
Based in Jakarta Selatan, Indonesia. Services delivered globally, async-compatible across every time zone. No agency layers, no junior hand-offs, no project management overhead — you work directly with the engineer responsible for the architecture, the code, and the outcome.
My focus is production readiness. Race conditions. Deadlocks. P95 latency. Connection pool exhaustion. These are the problems I prevent, diagnose, and fix — before they become incidents.

Internal tooling, CI/CD (GitHub Actions), cron pipelines, webhook orchestration
Engineering principles
- Zero hardcode — every value from config, env, or database.
- Typed errors with context — never swallowed, never generic.
- Production-first — performance, stability, and security as foundations, not afterthoughts.
- Direct engagement — you work with the engineer who owns the outcome.
- Proven technology over hype — Rust and Go for a reason, not for trends.
Selected outcomes
High-speed goods distribution platform
- • Scaled throughput from 1,000 → 30,000 items per cycle
- • P95 latency under 3s under sustained load
- • Zero-downtime data migration on live production
Viral ticketing infrastructure
- • Handled 20,000+ concurrent users at launch
- • Survived viral spikes without crashes or queue backups
- • Blocked bots and scalpers at the edge before request entered app layer
How we can work together
System Audit — $5k+
Full architecture review. Bottleneck analysis. Risk assessment. Actionable scalability roadmap you can execute with or without me.
End-to-End Build — $15k+
From concept to stable production. Architecture, implementation (Rust/Go), infrastructure, deployment, observability, and post-launch optimization.
Ongoing Partner — $8k/month
Embedded senior engineering capacity for teams and agencies. Code reviews, architecture decisions, incident response, and hands-on development.
