Passionate software developer, who loves solving problems and build software that helps people and companies. From the moment I learned how to program, I would always study different technologies at home than at work or at school, enjoying the challenge and trying to stay ahead of the curve. For a long time that was ruby, these days it’s with haskell and lisp-based languages. I also played with OpenGL, my raspberry pi and wrote various android apps for my phone through time. I also like to think I’m a good team player, whether in cooperation with my peers, or mentoring of junior developers.

I have a strong experience in communicating with customers, preparing specifications, leading projects to their completion and supporting them.

Experience

Senior software engineer - LIT Transit - Jan 2013 → Current

LIT Transit (Ljubljana, Slovenia) develops public transit solutions for customers around the world. I got to cooperate in particular with customers in Singapore. I was responsible for the writing of specifications, work effort estimates, implementation and supervision of some other team members. I participated in the implementation and maintenance of several bigger software projects and also multiple side-projects. My main area of expertise is the backend, but I did implement several important android projects and do a fair amount of frontend work.

Software engineer - Regulussoft d.o.o. - Jan 2002 → Jan 2013 (11 years)

Regulussoft (Ljubljana, Slovenia) is a smaller software development company developing solutions for third parties. I had the opportunity to work with numerous customers and technologies through the years. My experience mixed longer, multi-year, projects, with shorter multi-month ones. In a smaller company, I could develop my self-initiative and flexibility. I could also get exposition to many different technologies through that time (windows CE, symbian, palm, android, windows, linux, java, .NET, even a bit PHP, and so on).

Education

Masters of Science, National University of Ireland, Maynooth (2001)

Final year of studies in Ireland through the ERASMUS student exchange program. Obtained a MSc from Maynooth as well as the engineering degree from Telecom Nancy.

Software engineer, Telecom Nancy, France (1999-2001)

Software engineering school in three years (admission after two years of Higher School Preparatory Classes in France). Last year through the ERASMUS programme. Gave me a solid theoretical and practical base on the technical side, together with a preparation to practical enterprise work. The second year internship was in the LORIA research institution.

Presentations I’ve given

Also see blog posts in the archive.

OSS projects I’ve written or contributed to

I’ve authored or contributed to a series of OSS projects, mostly in haskell, typescript, and java.

Functional programming

I’m the author of prelude-ts, which is a typescript library aiming to make functional programming concepts accessible and productive in typescript. It provides immutable & persistent collections such as a vector, set and map, and functional control constructs like option/maybe and either.

I have made significant contributions to the vavr java project, which is an object-functional language extension to Java 8.

Parsing & Interoperability

I also wrote hsexif, a haskell library which parses EXIF information from JPEG and RAW files.

I have made significant contributions to and am co-maintaining slack-web, which is a modern haskell library offering bindings to the slack team messaging web API.

Angular type-checking

I wrote ng-typeview, which enables type-checking of angular1 views when you use typescript with angularjs. ng-typeview parses HTML views and javascript/typescript controllers and directives, and enables type-checking of the views against your typescript.

GUI applications

I wrote projectpad, a haskell application using QML for its GUI and SQLCipher, a SQLite extension offering encryption for data storage, to manage secret credentials and server information.

I also wrote cigale-timesheet, which is a haskell application using bootstrap and reflex for its GUI. That application collects data from various sources (source control, chats, emails, calendar, bugtracking software) to help the user prepare a timesheet of the tasks he or she has been performing.
