After graduating from UGM, Basuki landed a job at the ministry of public works as a civil servant. After several years, he obtained a scholarship from the ministry to resume his studies, and obtained both a master's and a doctorate from Colorado State University at ages 35 and 38, respectively.

On 26 October 2014, newly elected president Joko Widodo announced the appointment of Basuki as the minister of public works and public housing. The ministry was formed from a merger of the Ministry of Public Works and the Ministry of Public Housing, previously headed by Djoko Kirmanto and Djan Faridz respectively. Like other ministers, he resigned from his corporate work at Wijaya Karya upon appointment. He was one of the five Gadjah Mada University alumni in the cabinet lineup (excluding Widodo himself), and had a reported asset of Rp 6.5 billion (about US$ 500,000) in 2012.

Less than two months after becoming minister, Basuki agreed to provide a USD 62 million loan to compensate the victims of the Sidoarjo mud flow after getting in contact with the Bakrie Group. The company was given 4 years to pay off the debt, or face a government takeover of their assets (largely land). In 2016, he was also summoned by the Corruption Eradication Commission to serve as a witness regarding a graft case in his ministry.

In the first year under him the ministry received a IDR 33 trillion increase of funding between a draft and a revised budget plan – receiving the largest such increase compared to other ministries. While it only used about 8% of its IDR 118 trillion (USD 8.94 billion) annual budget within the first five months, by the end of that year the number increased to 94.5%. The ministry received the most funding compared to other ministries in 2016, while in the 2017 and 2018 budgets the ministry was second behind the Ministry of Defence. The ministry's budget for the 2018 fiscal year was set at IDR 107.3 trillion.

Basuki retained his ministerial position in the 2019 Onward Indonesia Cabinet.

Projects

Moving the capital

Шаблон:See also In 2017, the People's Representative Council revoked funding for capital-moving studies in the ministry's budget. Basuki described the capital's possible future movement from Jakarta as a "political decision", and that the move "is not easy" with the ministry only having done literature studies instead of macro planning. He added that such a move might take four to five years in preparation. People's Consultative Assembly speaker Zulkifli Hasan has called for a delay in the move, citing its major cost amidst major infrastructure projects. Basuki also pointed out that Palangkaraya would not be the only option, if such a move was made.

Public housing

Joko Widodo launched a plan to construct 1 million public houses as part of 10 million affordable housing by 2019–of which about 600,000 will be constructed from the ministry's budget. In implementation, the program received various complaints regarding the project speed to the slow response of permits from local governments. According to Basuki, about 700,000 of the houses had been completed by October 2017.

Infrastructure

In the 2016 ministry budget, construction of roads and bridges received the largest share followed by water resources. The Indonesian government set plans to construct 1,000 km of toll roads within Widodo's first 5-year tenure alongside 2,650 km of national roads. This included completion of the Trans-Java Toll Road and the initiation of the Trans-Sumatra Toll Road, in addition to the Trans Papua road–which according to Basuki was planned to reach 4,300 km in length by 2019. A toll road was also initiated between the cities of Manado and Bitung in North Sulawesi.

The ministry also planned on constructing 49 dams to provide water resources between 2014 and 2019.
