Systems for
intelligent
products

I'm Ricky Santosa — I build back-office platforms, AI runtimes, commerce systems, and security suites. Rust preferred, pragmatic always. Legible state, one-command deploys, systems that show their work.

Systems that show their work. Where intelligence is legible, state is inspectable, and the deploy is one command.

Selected work.

Practice

I design and ship platforms where the runtime, the data, and the UX are one system — not three teams throwing artifacts over walls.

My work spans AI runtimes with vector search and reasoning, multi-tenant commerce, enterprise back-office, and security suites. I prefer Rust for reliability, Postgres for durability, and simple deploys over clever ones.
