Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolBennett Meares is a founder and CTO with eight years of hands-on experience building time-series ETL and backend systems, and the author of the open-source Meerschaum project. He specializes in SQL-driven data pipelines across diverse databases and has repeatedly turned research-grade solutions—rooted in his master's thesis—into production software for academia and industry. Bennett has led migrations and plugin-driven onboarding efforts that reduced costs and accelerated delivery, and he’s shipped major projects ahead of schedule and under budget. Now based in Greenville, SC, he runs Swamp Rabbit Analytics to deliver sensor-driven data platforms for active transportation while continuing to consult on data architecture and full-stack backends. Not obvious at first glance: he’s turned a university ETL prototype into a reusable Python package and a registered research foundation asset, demonstrating a knack for productizing research code.
