**About the Team**

As Nasi Goreng is to the people of Indonesia, Payments Platform is to GOTO Financial: providing the nourishment to sustain our business from the inside out.
We run the best-in-class KYC platform of Indonesia.
We unlock all the critical payment products for our customers.
- Having a robust KYC is important to know the real identities (and not just their phone numbers) of our users and ensure we keep away fraudsters and money launderers from abusing our products in GTF.
Additionally, these products and their KYC requirements are tightly regulated.
Hence, this team is an amalgamation of highly skilled specialists from multiple domains like risk, compliance, data science, and IT Governance.
- As a team, we're concerned not only with the growth of the company, but each other's personal and professional growth, too.
Along with a common drive to jump over technical barriers and provide sustainable solutions, our team bonds over our shared love for tea, movies, and TV shows.
With WFH becoming more normalized, you best believe we've been sharing our favorite ways to prioritize a healthy work-life balance at home (Netflix, anyone?).
