TECHCOMFEST

TECHCOMFEST is a competition platform built for registration, payment, and digital submission management during a real event cycle.

The project needed to serve non-trivial participant volume while keeping event operations manageable for the organizing team.

The event needed one integrated platform for registration, payment, and submission handling at a significant participant scale.

The platform needed to make registration clear, payment handling reliable, submission flows organized, and backend integration manageable for a small three-person team.

I worked as backend developer and technical lead, taking responsibility for backend implementation, code integration, and merge coordination across the team.

The system brought participant registration, Midtrans payment flow, and submission management into one event platform so operations could be tracked through a consistent workflow.

Digital submission management for competition entries.

The platform used Next.js for the application foundation and integrated Midtrans to keep payment handling inside the participant flow.

Code integration and merge responsibility mattered because a small team still needed a stable product during event usage.

The main challenge was keeping registration, payment, and submission flows aligned while the event needed dependable behavior for approximately 11,000 participants.

TECHCOMFEST was completed and successfully used during the event, supporting approximately 11,000 participants across core platform workflows.

This project reinforced that technical leadership is often about reducing integration risk: clear backend contracts and merge discipline can matter as much as individual features.
