Daniel Ciocirlan

I'm a software engineer and the founder of Rock the JVM, the learning platform for everything in the Scala ecosystem. I started the Rock the JVM project out of love for Scala and the technologies it powers - they are all amazing tools and I want to share as much of my experience with them as I can.

As of June 2022, I've taught Java, Scala and related tech (e.g. Akka, Cats, Spark) to 53000+ students at various levels and I've held live trainings for some of the best companies in the industry, including Adobe, Microsoft and Apple. I've also taught university students who now work at Google and Facebook (among others), I've held Hour of Code for 7-year-olds and I've taught more than 28000 kids to code.
