Hi, I'm Santanu — a bilingual English-Indonesian specialist with 30+ years of professional experience across maritime engineering, quality management, vocational training, business operations, and freelance consulting.

WHO I AM

I am currently Director of PT Azko Maritim Bina Insani (LPK Azuko), a maritime vocational training agency focused on Japan's Tokutei Ginou (Specified Skilled Worker) program. I am also Head of Marketing & Business Development at PT Azrigah Sejahtera, a crew deployment company partnering with Australian operators.

Earlier I worked 7+ years as Marine Engineer for Chaceon DeepSeaLive in Western Australia (Crystal Crab fishing vessel FV Toyosaka Maru), earning my AMSA Marine Engineer Class 3 NCV certification (2017). My background also includes insurance (Surety Bond), fishing industry management roles, and 30+ years of freelance illustration, comic, logo, and graphic design work.

I hold a Diploma III (A.Md.Pi) in Mesin Perikanan from Politeknik AUP, Jakarta (1991-1994).

WHY CLIENTS CHOOSE ME

- Native Indonesian + professional English = unique access to Southeast Asian markets, business culture, and data sources
- ISO 9001 / QMS background = built-in quality control on every deliverable
- Real business leadership = currently Director and Marketing Head, so I understand business documents as functional tools
- AMSA-credentialed engineering background = international technical standards and audit-grade documentation
- Long industry history = maritime, fisheries, vocational training, insurance, marketing, design
- Bilingual capability = English (US/UK) + Indonesian (native) + Sundanese (regional)
