I�m a software engineer at heart, but I dabbled in other related areas like product management and data science. I�ve worked on systems in many languages, using many different technologies, at various levels of abstraction: from optimized assembly code (added SIMD instruction support in Flash Player virtual machine), to cross-platform desktop applications, to web applications, to �big data� services. I�ve experienced working both with resource-constrained embedded systems, and with very large scale distributed systems. I�ve co-authored/ contributed to cool things such as a new processor�s instruction set architecture, or the definition of a new web standard. Currently, I�m doing backend engineering work using mostly Scala & Spark _ but my background & interests are rather diverse, so who knows what I�ll do next?
