Stories and discoveries about my journey in tech, product, and a bit of my own interests


Building a Product Assistant (Part 1: Understanding User Needs and MVP Specification)

After our achievement at GEMASTIK, we decided to capitalize on the momentum and compete in another competition. Our eyes are set on a global-scale hackathon organized by Docker on Devpost. This competition lasted a month from October to November 2023. The theme revolves around using AI to solve problems related to developer experience and productivity. After going through the process of finding and validating ideas, we decided to build a product assistant to help product and engineering go through the requirement gathering, scoping, understanding, and task delegation process. We went on to winning an honorable mention with this product. How did we do it?

Journey to GEMASTIK XVI

Since June and up to early September 2023, I've been working on a project for a competition. A nationwide IT and Communications competition held by the Ministry of Education and Culture between the best of the best teams from various universities in Indonesia known as GEMASTIK. My team (NextGen) and I participated in the Software Development division. We managed to take 4th place and received an Honorable Mention. While I am happy with our results, I would like to take the time to write about the events leading up to this and reflect on what I've gone through for the past few months of this year that has changed my life in more ways than one.
