Armando Blancas is a Clojure-focused product developer with 13+ years building high-performance back-end services, DSLs, and developer tools across finance, telecommunications, and device software. He designs and runs low-latency, production-critical systems (including a sub-millisecond fixed-income trading platform) and pairs functional programming expertise in Clojure and Haskell with deep JVM and tooling experience. His work spans API and protocol design, compilers/interpreters, and data management using Postgres, Redis, ØMQ and AWS. Notable projects include an Eclipse-based analysis tool and a compiler that emits both FORTH and Java bytecode, reflecting a taste for unconventional, pragmatic engineering. Based in Palo Alto, he blends hands-on coding, operational ownership, and a long history of shipping open-source tooling.
