Tarun Yadav — Engineering Manager

I’m a hands-on engineering leader with deep experience in mobile platforms, design systems(DLS), and fraud-prevention solutions. Over the past decade at GoTo(GoJek/GoPay), I’ve helped shape large-scale mobile architecture and platform initiatives that improved reliability, developer experience, design consistency, and risk resilience across multiple product lines. I’ve grown from building Transport features and modular UI architecture (GoRide / GoSend / Home) to founding and scaling platform-driven initiatives, most notably the Aloha & Asphalt Design Language System SDKs, adopted across 20+ product domains and 50+ applications. This work reduced duplication, improved design coherence, and enabled teams to ship faster with shared, well-tested components and tooling. Today, I lead the Mobile Risk Platform charter across GoTo, where my team builds secure mobile platform capabilities and fraud-resilience foundations used across multiple consumer applications. My work focuses on strengthening trust, platform security, device-signal intelligence, and guardrails that enable product teams to ship safely at scale. Across my journey, I’ve consistently worked at the intersection of: ➢ mobile platforms and developer experience ➢ architecture redesign and large-scale refactoring ➢ cross-team collaboration and org-level adoption ➢ reliability, performance and security-by-design I’m passionate about building systems and platforms that scale not just in code, but in clarity, resilience and collaboration. Enabling teams to deliver better products with confidence.
