Senior Backend Engineer, Clearview

Taufan Fadhilah

Security audits, major dependency upgrades, and the refactors that turn a mega-service into something the team can read again.

Senior backend engineer at Clearview. Day-to-day in TypeScript, Express, TypeORM, and Postgres. I like the work nobody wants to talk about at standup: closing security-audit findings one class at a time, taking a major dependency upgrade through to a green CI, breaking apart a service file that has grown past what any one engineer should have to hold in their head.

Coming from an Indonesian engineering background, I’m methodical and I overcommunicate on purpose. If I say I’ll do something, I make sure it gets done. I reply to messages faster than people expect.

Outside of engineering, I love spending time with my family and hunting for good food. I used to play tennis to clear my head and keep burnout at bay. I love to smile.
