Hi, I'm Ihza. I started out publishing machine learning research, moved into data science at e-commerce unicorn Tokopedia, then large-scale recommendation systems at TikTok. Now I'm a founding engineer building multimodal AI agents.

A few highlights.

Built recommendation models serving 150M+ users at Tokopedia. Drove +129% GMV for TikTok Shop. Lifted orders +96% with new ranking and recall models. Shipped real-time voice-and-vision AI agents with sub-500ms response. Published peer-reviewed ML research (IEEE). And much more →
