About the Team

We are a team of 4 engineers, focusing on Platform concerns, under the Mobility Marketplace group. Our prime objectives include platformization, reliability concerns of systems within the marketplace and aim to move towards a composable architecture where new features could be shipped for experimentation by business in a matter of days. We act as a central binding agent for Pricing, Supply and Matchmaking teams and make sure that the overall architecture and infrastructure is flexible, easily extensible and scalable.

We keep pondering about how we could improve availability of the systems by introducing tools to configure and operate clustered solutions. how could we be more agile in on-boarding new use-cases to enable opportunities to Mobility Marketplace business? We bounce around ideas and debate with the above themes in mind. Combating remote work has brought us even closer with frequent catch-up for chit-chat over tea and empathy for each other.

The Marketplace Product Development Team at Gojek handles the hardest quantitative problems related to improving Gojek's real-time marketplace which deeply impacts the everyday experiences of our customers (riders) and drivers.
