Engineering precision meets design intuition. I build digital products that perform at the edge — fast, scalable, and remembered.
I Build
Things
That Ship.
Fauzan Nurhikmah — Senior Engineer at Scale AI. Previously Stripe, Figma. I specialise in the full spectrum: from WebGL shaders and React component libraries to distributed backend systems processing millions of events.
I don't just write code — I architect decisions that compound over time. Every PR is a product decision. Every abstraction has a cost.
Performance Engineering
Core Web Vitals obsessive. Sub-100ms or bust.
Systems Architecture
Scalable from day 1, not day 100,000.
Design Engineering
The gap between design and code is my home.
The Stack
Tools I reach for when precision matters.
| Frontend | React / Next.js | |
| 3D / WebGL | Three.js / GLSL | |
| Backend | Node.js / Go | |
| Data | PostgreSQL / Redis | |
| Infra | AWS / Kubernetes | |
| Motion | GSAP / Framer Motion |
Featured
Projects
Prism — Design System
Production component library powering 12 teams. Token-based architecture delivering pixel-perfect consistency across web and native. Cut UI dev time by 60%.
Flowstate — AI Whiteboard
Real-time collaborative canvas with AI ideation. 1000+ concurrent users via CRDT sync on Cloudflare Durable Objects. Sub-50ms frame latency.
Meridian — Analytics Pipeline
50M events/day IoT ingestion pipeline. Sub-100ms query latency on aggregated time-series via ClickHouse + materialized views.
Vessel — Dev CLI
8k+ GitHub stars. Containerised microservice scaffolding tool that generates production-ready Dockerfiles, K8s manifests, and CI pipelines from a single config.
Where I've
Worked
Senior Software Engineer
Leading frontend architecture for AI evaluation tooling. Built a real-time annotation platform reducing ML data labelling cycles from days to hours, used by Fortune 500 clients.
Software Engineer II
Core contributor to Stripe Elements and Payment Links. Led accessibility overhaul achieving WCAG 2.1 AA across checkout — reduced support tickets by 34%.
Software Engineer
Built the plugin API infrastructure, now powering 1M+ plugins. Contributed to WebGL rendering pipeline improvements that significantly boosted canvas performance.
Co-Founder & CTO
Sole technical founder. Zero to $180k ARR in 9 months. Hired 4 engineers, architected the full stack, raised $1.2M seed. Hard shutdown after pivot failed — learned more than any job.
