About Naresh Kumar

I am a Principal Architect at Tokopedia, the leading e-commerce platform in Indonesia and a subsidiary of GoTo Group, the largest technology group in the region. With over 11 years of experience in data engineering and architecture, I have a strong background in designing and implementing data platform solutions that enable hyper-personalization, data discovery, and data quality across multiple business units and domains.In my current role, I am working on envisioning and overseeing the Unified Customer Data Platform for four subsidiaries of GoTo Group, which will remove the need for siloed technologies and enhance the customer experience on the e-commerce journey. I am also guiding and leading the implementation of the Domain Data Platforms (Data Mesh) framework, which will provide decentralized and self-service data access and governance for each business unit. Additionally, I am responsible for various cost-saving and optimization initiatives for the data platform, which have resulted in significant savings of over 200k/month.My passion for data drives me to explore new technologies, contribute to the open-source community, and share my knowledge with others. I have built and open-sourced a data quality framework using Spark and Pandas in Python, which offers custom validation checks, data profiling, and anomaly detection. I also hold a Certificate in Advanced Business Analytics from the Indian School of Business, where I learned how to apply data science and machine learning techniques to solve business problems. I am always eager to learn, collaborate, and innovate in the fast-paced and evolving field of data.
