Gilang Adam
Product Builder | AI-Powered Web Apps | Independent Developer · Jakarta, Indonesia
End-to-end product builder who ships full-stack apps, AI agents, and interactive web experiences from idea to production. 4x hackathon winner, 16+ live products, and creator of Wasp Clone OS..
What does Gilang Adam build?
The work sits where product thinking meets front-end craft: AI agents and retrieval pipelines on the back end, and interactive interfaces on the front. Projects are taken from a rough idea through deployment, including the unglamorous parts that decide whether software survives contact with real users: data models, rate limits, deploy pipelines and content that still makes sense six months later.
Where is the work experience?
Roles, dates and what each one involved. Most of the work has been shipping rather than presenting, which is why the portfolio leans on demos and source links instead of case studies.
