Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolDejan Djekic is a Scala-focused data engineer and architect with 11 years of experience building high-performance ETL pipelines and cost-efficient data platforms for companies from startups to hyperscale tech. He runs Functor (C2C) where he created DataSliv, a low-cost data lake alternative aimed at dramatically reducing cloud data expenses. Recently engaged as a Senior Data Engineer at ASML and previously contracting for Apple, Zoox and Harvard Business School, he consistently delivers sizable performance gains (up to ~90% in some pipelines) and pragmatic architecture. Comfortable across Scala, Spark/Databricks, Akka, Python and modern infra (Terraform, Kubernetes, Snowflake, Redshift), he blends hands-on implementation with system-level cost and efficiency thinking. Based in New York with dual Serbian/Croatian citizenship, he’s driven by daily learning and incremental improvement, often favoring lean, cost-aware designs that challenge cloud-native cost assumptions.
