Summary
Gentian Demaj is a Senior Software Engineer based in Berlin with 10 years of experience designing high-performance stream and batch ETL/ELT pipelines for banking, fraud decisioning, and BI solutions. At Klarna he architected a risk and fraud decisioning engine handling tens of thousands of requests per second and cut regulatory reporting pipelines from days to hours by rethinking lakehouse ingestion patterns. Proficient in Python, TypeScript, Java and AWS, he combines deep data engineering expertise with pragmatic system design to deliver reliable, low-latency systems under tight SLAs. Gentian also has a background modernizing legacy systems into asynchronous microservices and a proven track record improving data quality to nearly 99.9%, reflecting a focus on observability and operational resilience. Outside work he’s a Python enthusiast who apparently loves apple pie and black coffee—small hints of a methodical, detail-oriented engineer who also enjoys simple pleasures.
