Meet the Sabahan with the power to edit the way you see Malaysian roads on Waze
To those not in the know, Yusmizan bin Ag Kirah is just another lecturer you would see walking down the hallways of Kolej Teknikal Yayasan Sabah. Unbeknown to Malaysians, the lecturer in the Automotive Technology Programme, and a former engineer, is one of the highest-ranking Waze map editors in Malaysia.
Yus, as he is fondly known, was promoted on May 2017 to a Level 6 Country Manager for Waze map editors in Malaysia and Brunei, one of the top titles Waze editors can earn. Despite having his hands full as a father of four children and a full-time lecturer, Yus volunteers his time, along with 300 fellow map editors in Malaysia, to play a great part in how Malaysians experience Waze. The Malaysian map editors regularly update, edit, fix and manage the maps in the Northern, Central, Southern, East Coast and Borneo region of the country.
Yus is currently teaching Diploma students in engineering/technical courses in subjects Materials Technology, Hydraulics, Pneumatics & AutoCAD, a job in which he performs from 8am to 5pm. However, that does not stop him from making time before and after work to check Waze on the various community social media platforms to help unlock requests from the community to update the maps while doing some light editing in his area, Kota Kinabalu. While his work for the Waze community is important, he also values spending time to watch cartoons with his kids after they finish school.
A community of friends from Waze to real life
Not limited to just editing maps in the app, Yus also manages community engagements for Waze map editors by planning local meetups where they can share expertise and build friendships. He also commits time to motivate and empower map editors to help them earn promotions to higher editing ranks, such as assigning editors to Area Manager roles, in order to encourage regular map editing that keeps the Waze app up-to-date.
Reflective of the Malaysian culture of friendliness and acceptance, Yus has made close friends in the Waze community that span across the whole country. Simple visits to different states can suddenly turn into full fledge road trips as his fellow Wazers would take him around to explore and unlock new unmapped areas together.
When Yus joined Waze in 2013, he did it because he felt the app made navigation very informative and fun. He never expected that Waze would have such a great influence on his life. Since the introduction of Waze in Malaysia, the country has now become amongst the biggest Waze community in the world with 5.9 million monthly active users and 300 map editors.
The Waze Community in Malaysia
The Waze community is one filled with talent. From map editors, translators to beta testers, Waze users passionately volunteer their skills and time to make everyone’s driving experience a pleasant one. While these volunteers can gain in-app points for their efforts, the community is strongly united by the shared goal of ensuring that the Malaysian road experience is cared for by providing the most updated road information and map details. They also help to make the app more inclusive by ensuring that the community is active and welcoming.

Translation - Malay Pensyarah pada siang hari, Wazer pada waktu malam
Kenali anak kelahiran Sabah ini yang telah mengubah cara jalan-jalan Malaysia dipaparkan di Waze
Bagi sesiapa yang tidak mengenalinya, tiada bezanya antara Yusmizan bin Ag Kirah dari para pensyarah lain yang dapat anda lihat berjalan di lorong-lorong Kolej Teknikal Yayasan Sabah. Tanpa disedari kebanyakan rakyat Malaysia, pensyarah bagi Program Teknologi Automotif ini, yang juga merupakan bekas jurutera, juga merupakan salah seorang editor peta Waze yang berpangkat tinggi di Malaysia.
Beliau yang biasanya dikenali sebagai Yus, telah dinaikkan pangkat pada Mei 2017 ke Pengurus Negara Tahap 6 bagi para editor peta waze di Malaysia dan Brunei. Pangkat ini adalah antara jawatan yang tertinggi bagi para editor Waze. Dalam beliau sibuk menjaga empat orang anak dan bekerja sebagai pensyarah sepenuh masa, Yus turut menyumbangkan masa beliau untuk meningkatkan pengalaman Waze bagi para pengguna Malaysia bersama 300 orang editor peta lain di seluruh Malaysia. Para editor peta di Malaysia ini sentiasa mengemas kini, mengedit, membetulkan dan mengurus peta-peta di rantau Utara, Tengah, Selatan, Pantai Timur serta Borneo di negara ini.
Yus kini mengajar para pelajar Diploma kursus kejuruteraan/teknikal dalam mata pelajaran Teknologi Bahan, Hidraulik, Pneumatik dan AutoCAD, dari jam 8 pagi sehingga 5 petang setiap hari kerja. Walau bagaimanapun, pekerjaan ini tidak menghalang beliau daripada menyumbangkan masa sebelum dan selepas kerja untuk memeriksa Waze di pelbagai platform media sosial komuniti untuk membantu memenuhi permintaan komuniti tersebut dalam mengemas kini peta-peta sambil melakukan pengeditan ringkas pada peta tempat tinggalnya, Kota Kinabalu. Walaupun kerjanya untuk komuniti Waze adalah penting, beliau juga banyak meluangkan masa untuk menonton rancangan kartun bersama anak-anak beliau selepas waktu persekolahan.
Ramai rakan-rakan, di dalam Waze dan di dunia sebenar
Selain mengedit peta-peta dalam aplikasi tersebut, Yus juga menguruskan penglibatan komuniti untuk para editor peta Waze dengan merancang persidangan-persidangan tempatan di mana mereka boleh berkongsi kepakaran dan memupuk persahabatan. Beliau juga menggunakan masa beliau untuk mendorong dan memperkasakan para editor peta agar mereka dapat dipromosikan ke peringkat pengeditan yang lebih tinggi, seperti melantik editor tertentu sebagai Pengurus Kawasan. Inisiatif ini bertujuan untuk menggalakkan pengeditan peta dilakukan secara berkala agar aplikasi Waze sentiasa dikemas kini.
Mencerminkan budaya Malaysia yang berteraskan keakraban dan penerimaan, Yus telah mengenali beberapa kawan rapat melalui komuniti Waze merentasi seluruh negara. Lawatan ringkas ke pelbagai negeri tiba-tiba boleh menjadi perjalanan penuh apabila rakan-rakan Waze beliau membawa beliau sekitar negeri-negeri tersebut untuk bersama-sama menerokai dan memetakan kawasan-kawasan yang belum dipetakan di Waze.
Yus menyertai Waze pada 2013 kerana dia merasakan aplikasi tersebut menjadikan navigasi sangat bermaklumat dan menyeronokkan. Dia tidak pernah menjangkakan bahawa Waze akan membawa pengaruh yang begitu besar terhadap kehidupan beliau. Sejak pelancaran Waze di Malaysia, komuniti Waze negara ini kini antara yang terbesar di dunia, seramai 5.9 juta orang pengguna aktif bulanan dan 300 orang editor peta.
Komuniti Waze di Malaysia
Ahli-ahli komuniti Waze memang berbakat. Dari editor peta, penterjemah ke penguji beta, para pengguna Waze menyumbang kemahiran dan masa mereka untuk meningkatkan pengalaman pemanduan bagi semua orang. Tentu sekali, para sukarelawan ini dapat memperoleh mata-mata dalam aplikasi sebagai tanda penghargaan atas usaha mereka, tetapi komuniti ini disatukan dengan tujuan untuk bersama memastikan agar pengalaman perjalanan di Malaysia sentiasa terurus dengan menyediakan maklumat jalan dan butiran peta yang terkini. Mereka juga membantu menjadikan aplikasi ini lebih inklusif dengan memastikan komuniti ini sentiasa aktif dan mesra bagi semua orang.
