#### Why tech-focused?

1. I want to be exposed to an environment with proper product/development processes, as well as an engineering culture that emphasizes best engineering practices.
2. I want to be surrounded by people in tech, this way I will probably end up learning more.

3. The less tech is treated as a cost-center and the more it contributes to the company's bottom-line, the better the opportunities for an SWE like me to be part of something technically challenging, impactful, and isn't a tech-debt nightmare, ergo the more I learn. I'll probably be treated better too :pray:.

#### Why the financial industry?

1. Wherever I work, I'll have to be part of an industry. As I work, I will gain domain knowledge. In my opinion, good financial literacy is extremely important. Why not gain domain knowledge in an industry which can be directly applicable to my daily life outside of work? This is also a reason I chose to specialize in Financial Technology in school.

2. My financial knowledge is poor and needs to improve. What better way to do so than by actually working in finance?
3. The financial services sector is a massive part of the world's economy and moves a lot of money (what a surprise am I right?). Where there's money there's investment, including investment into tech. I work in tech, I enjoy being invested in :sunglasses:.

## My Project and Team

In an environment full of mature projects, somehow I have the opportunity to join a greenfield project that aims to reinvent how data is transported, processed, and distributed from upstream sources, such as Financing, Capital Markets, and others. The goal is to serve as the single-source of truth for data needed by downstream Finance and Risk processes. When I joined, the team has just exited POC mode and started their first sprint.

## Moving Forward

Moving forward, I will be documenting what I learned on-the-job here, mostly likely on a sprint-by-sprint basis (biweekly). I will also probably be documenting cheat sheets of the technologies/concepts that I'm working with, mostly just so I have a place hosted online just to easily refer back to.

Welcome to my engineering space! I’m Ryo Wijaya, a software engineer passionate about building efficient solutions and exploring new technologies. I believe that being a good developer doesn't necessarily mean knowing everything, but rather knowing what to search for, how to ask the right questions, and how to derive the best solutions.

Outside of work, I'm an amateur electric guitar :guitar:, keyboard :musical_keyboard:, and drums 🥁 player, as well as a hobbyist composer :computer:. I collect and have an addiction to open-back over-ear headphones :headphones:, and I also have a cute doggo :dog:.
