Senior🎓
Top SchoolArun Sori is a Staff Backend Engineer based in Amsterdam with 12 years of experience building low-level systems, distributed data platforms, and near-real-time data pipelines. At GitLab he drives CDC and event delivery work—projects like Siphon that bridge Postgres and ClickHouse via NATS—while contributing to observability features using Kubernetes CRDs, Kubebuilder and OpenTelemetry. Previously at MessageBird and Wingify he designed and operated high-throughput ClickHouse and Kafka-based pipelines, introduced SRE practices, and shipped low-latency reporting APIs serving millions of events per day. Known for a systems-first approach, he combines deep attention to kernel- and protocol-level details with pragmatic product focus to reduce data loss and improve performance. His background includes security- and audit-related contributions at Mozilla, reflecting a long-standing interest in observability and instrumentation beyond typical backend work.
