About the Team

The Marketplace Product Development team at Gojek handles the hardest quantitative problems related to improving Gojek's real-time marketplace. We are responsible for the pillars of technology, science, and strategy across the supply and demand. More specifically, we optimally match customer orders across Gojek (Food, Transport, etc.) with the right driver partners at the right time and location. We are the brains of Gojek's on-demand nature, matching millions of orders a day. This supply and demand matching is the core problem that our Product Team tackles every day, designing products and services that solve this ever-evolving challenge. The efficiency of our matching technology directly impacts customer and driver-partner experience, as well as the unit economics of the platform.
 
Some of the key problem statements that our team works on are: how to intelligently pair driver partners to customers to provide the quickest pickup times, how to make our service more affordable by pairing demand on overlapping routes, and how to fairly distribute customer orders across our driver base, just to name a few. 
 
Combating remote work has brought us even closer, with frequent catch-ups over tea and sharing ways we have been keeping ourselves sane. Along with our desire to utilize smart technology and innovative engineering strategies to make people’s lives easier, our team also bonds over our shared love for reading, gaming, and drinking lots of coffee. We work hard and play hard, and believe it or not, we actually enjoy each other’s company!
