Behind The Code - My Story
Hello Visitor! Ardan here. I'm a software engineer who found my passion in coding during my university years at Institut Teknologi PLN. What started as curiosity in a programming class turned into a journey of continuous learning and growth. Through dedication and hard work, I graduated with distinction (GPA: 3.94) in Informatics Engineering, but what truly excites me is the potential of technology to solve real-world problems.
My journey has been shaped by meaningful experiences - from mentoring fellow students as a Laboratory Coordinator to being recognized as a Bangkit Academy Best Graduate. Currently, I'm contributing to Indonesia's power infrastructure as a Software Engineer at PLN Icon Plus, where I develop microservices and backend systems that help manage the nation's power grid.
Beyond technical skills, I believe in the power of knowledge sharing. I've had the privilege of guiding hundreds of students as a technical mentor across various programs, learning as much from them as they have from me. As a certified TensorFlow Developer, I'm particularly passionate about the intersection of software engineering and machine learning, always exploring new ways to combine these fields to create impactful solutions.
