01 / THE CONTEXT

A workforce platform had to work beyond its home market

Flip Kasir partnered with Paytm as it expanded its merchant operations in Indonesia. The opportunity was to provide a white-labelled workforce product for the partner’s sales agents—a practical system for attendance, team meetings, work-time visibility and day-to-day field operations.

The foundation already existed in India. The product challenge was to make that foundation configurable enough for a smaller, fast-growing market, a new local operating model and a new language without rebuilding the experience from scratch.

03 / THE PRODUCT

Clear identity confirmation for a field workforce

04 / THE JOURNEY

One practical workflow for the working day

01

Open the workforce app

Agents begin with a focused home experience designed around their daily operational needs.

02

Check in with confidence

A clear attendance action helps agents record the start of work and teams maintain day-to-day visibility.

03

Confirm identity

A lightweight identity confirmation supports confidence that the right person is completing the check-in.

04

Coordinate with the team

Attendance and team-meeting workflows help local operations teams organise the field workforce.

05

Support local operations

Teams have the visibility they need to manage activity as the partner workforce grows.

05 / PRODUCT JUDGMENT

Localise the operating model and retain a platform mindset

Adapt the product for the market

Language, approved local services, geolocation needs and operational workflows had to work for Indonesia while preserving a coherent core experience.

Make configuration replace hardcoding

A different escalation model surfaced a product constraint. I helped turn that market-specific logic into a more configurable foundation that could support future expansion.

Ship with the partner and keep learning

The first release was intentionally focused. We paired a small pilot with close support for the local team, then continued shipping improvements as the workforce expanded.

06 / HOW I BUILT IT

Bridge product teams across two markets

Work directly with the local operating team

I worked directly with Indonesia business and operations teams to understand their workflows, shape product requirements and coordinate delivery alongside a program manager.

Launch in a controlled cohort

We began with 5% of the workforce, used the initial rollout to resolve operational needs, and then expanded to the complete partner cohort.

Keep the core reusable

I balanced urgency with a platform approach, making changes that could support a new market without creating a one-off product branch.

07 / WHAT I LEARNED

“International expansion is not a translation exercise. It is the work of making a product flexible enough to respect a new market without losing the clarity of its core.”
