Jerry Lucas
entrepreneur, and
writer.
I'm currently building Finty, a new personalized finance tracker.
I enjoy building software that simplifies complex problems and makes technology feel natural to use. I like to create tools that help people work, think, and live more effectively.
To that end, I am a generalist that approaches systems from first principles, understanding systems at their core to shape how we build and live with computers all around us.
Some of my writing:
A practical guide to startup growth through product-market fit, growth channels, conversion, and A/B testing.
Learn the business models and pricing strategies behind billion-dollar startups, with insights from YC’s top 100 companies.
How to set KPIs and prioritize tasks to accelerate early startup growth and reach product-market fit faster.
How founders can get their first customers through unscalable tactics, hands-on sales, and focused outreach.
Previously, I worked at Gojek, Shopee, Ministry of ICT, and Harian Kompas. I was also selected to represent my country in G20 program in the past to participate in AI Robotic program collaborating with international peers on cutting-edge technology.
I recently graduated from Binus University in Computer Science and Economics, I taught top-selected students in the Ministry of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia, wrote my thesis on OpenAI, and am also a classical guitarist who enjoys playing music with others.
Other interests: math, physics, reading, chess, and rubik's cubes.
