PROFILE · No. 01 / the person behind bwc
the guy who automates things nobody asked him to
JAKARTA, 2026VERREL ALSYOUMI · data engineer, tinkerer
verrel builds systems most people would not bother building. a data engineer by trade, he spends his days wiring data warehouses, and his nights teaching a wiki to remember his entire life and running a horror-shorts bot that writes and uploads itself.
he'll automate a five-minute task with a three-day script and call it a win. he probably is winning, actually.
started in mechatronics, fixing CNC machines on a factory floor and wiring an alert system so the machines could tell on themselves.
pivoted to software at binus. turns out taking things apart and putting them back together works the same whether it is a machine or a system.
became a data engineer, building warehouses and ETL pipelines that have to be correct, idempotent, and quietly run themselves every night.
started pointing the same habit at his own life: a wiki that remembers everything, a bot that runs the day, a channel that writes and uploads horror on its own.
