ABOUT ME
Python Developer
Python Developer
Software/Data engineer with a background in web & systems programming. Ex-IBMer. I do a lot of Java and Python.
I also have a fair bit of experience writing systems using micro-services and an event-driven architecture. Also, related to this, I can help with running large distributed data-intensive applications. My favoured stack is with Apache Kafka, Apache Cassandra and Apache Spark.
I'm also very happy to talk about running python apps in production and any challenges that come with that.
