Curriculum Vitae
Gilang Putra Perdana
I am a fresh graduate of Universitas Andalas, majoring in Mechanical Engineering. Throughout my academic journey, I combined technical learning with leadership, volunteering, and social initiatives, shaping myself into a professional with strong engineering knowledge, organizational skills, and social responsibility.<br /> Beyond campus, I focused on broader social impact. In 2023, I founded a community for social, educational, and environmental development, empowering youth to contribute to society. I also initiated Jejak Pengabdi, a rural volunteering program. Our first project in Sitabu Village, West Pasaman, held in early 2025 with the West Sumatera Department of Agriculture, supported local communities through education, agriculture, and empowerment initiatives.<br /> I have also achieved recognition in academic and youth development programs, including: 1st Winner – PKM-PM Proposal Competition, AGRIFIESTA Universitas Bengkulu, 2nd Winner – PKM-KC Proposal Competition, AGRIFIESTA Universitas Bengkulu, Top 10 Finalist – Delegate of Riau Province, National Selection of PPAN–AIYEP Program (Australia–Indonesia Youth Exchange Program), Ministry of Youth and Sports<br /> These achievements reflect my adaptability, perseverance, and drive for growth.<br /> I am passionate about mechanical engineering, energy conversion, leadership, and community development. With a strong problem-solving mindset and global perspective, I aim to apply my background to create sustainable, impactful solution.

Internship
PT Pertamina Hulu Rokan • Magang
During my practical work at Pertamina Hulu Rokan, I was assigned to the Well Development Department, where my main focus was analyzing the piping system design of an expansion loop that was found to be inapplicable in the field due to site-specific constraints. This project required both technical accuracy and problem-solving skills to provide a feasible solution that met operational standards.
I applied ASME B31.3 (Process Piping Code) as the primary reference for evaluating the design and ensuring compliance with industry regulations. My tasks included reviewing piping layouts, identifying design limitations, and proposing improvements to optimize the geometry and positioning of the expansion loop.
To strengthen my analysis, on my final project, I utilized ANSYS FLUENT for fluid flow simulation and ANSYS Static Structural to evaluate stress distribution and mechanical performance of the proposed designs. This combination allowed me to recommend an applicable and safe expansion loop design that could enhance the reliability of the system in oil and gas operations.
This experience not only deepened my technical understanding of piping systems in the oil and gas industry but also trained me in engineering problem-solving, simulation-based analysis, and practical application of international standards. It strengthened my passion for energy conversion and mechanical engineering design, preparing me to contribute effectively in industrial projects

Founder and CEO
Growth Community • Organisasi
Growth Community is a youth-led initiative that I founded in 2023 with a mission to address social, educational, and environmental issues through collaborative action and sustainable programs. The community was established with the belief that meaningful change can begin from small, consistent actions and that young people have the power to inspire progress in society.
We started with simple yet impactful activities, such as weekly food-sharing programs for underprivileged people, beach clean-ups, and collaborative projects with other organizations. Over time, these initiatives grew into a movement with more than 28 committed members who share the same values of compassion, responsibility, and service to society. I emphasized a family-like approach to build strong internal bonds, ensuring every member felt valued and motivated.
One of our milestone projects was “Jejak Pengabdi”, a volunteering program in Sitabu Village, Pasaman Barat, West Sumatera. Despite starting with zero financial support and facing challenges such as leadership changes and limited resources, we successfully raised 18 million rupiahs to fund the program. The project brought together 40 committee members (32 attending on-site) and collaborated with the West Sumatera Agricultural Department, which provided experts to educate villagers about local farming challenges, including pest management for patchouli plants. This seven-day program created a lasting impact.
