About

Doing things with data for money. Also for fun, but mostly for money.

Some messy facts which I usually use for an interview introduction.

  • Studied physics, did PhD for 5 years, didn’t get to thesis defence due to move to another country
  • Was a full-stack developer when it was called a webmaster and jQuery was competing with prototype.js. Abandoned front-end development during the raise of AngularJS.
  • Had long relationships with Microsoft Sql Server for several years during 2005-2008 SP2 eras.
  • Switched to PostgreSQL after it. Still no regrets :)
  • MongoDB is also fun, helped me multiple times.
  • And yeah, I love SQL.
  • Also did some meetup talk about CAP and PACELC theorems.
  • Did C# for money, moved to Scala and Python world. Some things feel clumsy, some things feel really good here.
  • Mixed feelings about Spark, especially after working with it for some decent amount of time. It can be a powerful beast, but in 90% of cases it’s an overkill.
  • Not an ML expert, but can build you a model and discuss a pac learning framework over a beer.
  • Couldn’t resist the deep learning hype, currently jumping between deep reinforcement learning and natural language processing topics.
  • Big fan of ansible, vim and tmux. Cautiously toying with terraform.
