👋 Hello, I'm Damien, and I am a research software engineer.

I enjoy programming languages, the theory underlying them, and am quite comfortable in a few domains:

  • Distributed systems
  • AI/ML modeling & infrastructure
  • Cloud native infrastructure / container orchestration
  • Mobile
  • Embedded

I think modern approaches and practices can be applied to any programming language or ecosystem. Use the tool that works, as it goes.

With that said I am particularly fond of Rust, Haskell, Clojure, and Swift.

Here are some neat things I have been lucky enough to work on:

  • Contributed to a big open-source Rust project, successfully migrating the entire Firecracker codebase to Rust 2018
  • Contributed to the design and scaling of a small but effective graph query language in Go.
  • Contributed to the design of a fulltext search system over a distributed DB (also in Go).
  • Built & maintain a relatively complex Android and iOS/macOS/visionOS SDK, and helped launch successful products around it.
  • Built a successful novel information retrieval (IR) machine learning algorithm (Go, again)
  • Built React and Angular frontends... not my area of expertise, but I am learning!
  • Maintained and extended cross platform mobile apps (Angular/Ionic)
  • Built modular Python and Scala machine learning products & supporting infrastructure

I am always open to collaborate! Tag me on Threads, send me a message on LinkedIn, or an email.
