Senior🎓
Top SchoolJakub Ner is a Senior Software Engineer with 10+ years of experience building and operating large-scale distributed backend systems, currently driving reliability and incident communications for Azure’s Brain team at Microsoft. He blends deep systems-level expertise—from kernel networking drivers and VM opcode work to cloud-scale C# services—with a pragmatic emphasis on clarity, supportability, and stakeholder alignment. A founder of overhide.io, he has hands-on startup experience architecting ledger-based authorization systems and leading community technical outreach. Known for mentoring across levels and documenting decisions thoroughly, he equally adapts to UI work and low-level embedded challenges. Based in Sammamish, WA, he brings a rare combination of operational instincts, product lifecycle ownership, and a habit of "pivoting and coding again" until the right solution ships.
