About

I spent 9+ years in finance and project accounting in Indonesia — starting as a Project Accountant and eventually leading financial oversight across multiple construction sites. Along the way, I saw firsthand how much a single unreliable number can cost: a delayed decision, a missed budget, a project review that goes sideways. That's what drove me to go back to school.

I'm now finishing my MSc in Data Analytics for Business at KEDGE Business School in Bordeaux, building the technical skills — SQL, Python, Power BI, machine learning — to do the work I always wanted to do but couldn't: turn raw financial data into something a business can actually act on. The numbers I care about are the ones that prevent a bad decision, not just summarise it.

I completed a Business Intelligence Analyst internship at Amplitude Laser Group, building Looker Studio dashboards and optimising BigQuery pipelines for an after-sales team that was still running everything on spreadsheets. I'm now doing a People Strategy Business Analyst internship at Doctolib, building a Metabase-based People Data Hub that gives HR teams one source of truth on attrition, demographics, and workforce composition. I work in English daily, still building my French, and Indonesian at home.

Experience

People Strategy Business Analyst Intern

Doctolib — Levallois-Perret, France

Leading the build of the People Data Hub, a Metabase project that turns KPI definitions for attrition, demographics, and terminations into a single source of truth for People Strategy, People Development, Talent Acquisition, and HRBP. That means writing the queries and dashboards directly, coordinating with Data Engineering on the underlying fields and with the People Information System team on how Workday structures its reports, then validating every figure against the HRMS before it goes out. Alongside that build sits ad hoc analytics for stakeholders across the business — a global attrition study, a workforce demographics report, a Comex span-of-control mapping — plus a set of inherited monthly HRBP and office-attendance dashboards, kept refreshed and QA-checked against the HRMS, with Claude assisting on the day-to-day maintenance.

Business Intelligence Analyst Intern

Amplitude Laser Group — Pessac, France

Designed and optimised SQL queries in BigQuery to clean, enrich, and validate after-sales data across multiple product lines, which eliminated data inconsistencies and cut manual reconciliation work. That clean data fed into interactive Looker Studio dashboards built with drill-down KPIs, global date filters, and cross-table joins, giving the after-sales team real-time visibility into backlog, revenue, and service performance. Getting there meant working directly with business stakeholders to translate their reporting requirements into those unified dashboards, replacing ad-hoc spreadsheets with a single, consistent operational workflow.

Project Accountant → Finance Officer

Lintas Intim Group Construction — Indonesia

  • 2024 Project Finance & Accounting Officer
  • 2020 – 2023 Project Accounting Manager
  • 2018 – 2020 Senior Project Accountant
  • 2015 – 2018 Project Accountant

Grew from junior accountant to Finance Officer over 9 years across multiple construction sites, taking on increasing responsibility for financial oversight and reporting. Day to day, that meant preparing and submitting monthly project progress reports (termijn) to Indonesia's Ministry of Public Works — the basis for government contract payment approvals, where accuracy directly determined payment release — on top of payroll and logistics coordination alongside core finance duties at a small, family-run company.

Recommendations

Exhibit A
I strongly recommend Edwin, who completed a 3-month internship with our team at Amplitude. He quickly grasped the technical and organisational challenges of our business and made a major contribution in developing several Business Intelligence dashboards for our after-sales department. Edwin has an excellent analytical mind, strong working autonomy, and always maintained a professional and respectful attitude. Despite the French language barrier, he collaborated effectively with the entire team. I am convinced that Edwin will succeed in any demanding professional environment.

Exhibit B
I had the pleasure of supervising Edwin during his internship at Amplitude. Edwin distinguished himself by his excellent mindset, punctuality, and reliability. He demonstrated great autonomy and a sharp sense of responsibility, adapting to new situations very quickly and rapidly growing in competence. Edwin was a valuable asset to our team.
