Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJan Beníšek is a Senior Data Engineer based in Zurich with around a decade of hands-on experience turning analytics prototypes into scalable data platforms and production ML pipelines. He has led data teams and built high-throughput ELT architectures (Airflow, Airbyte, Redshift, dbt on EKS) that ingest tens of millions of events and process tens of TiBs daily, and recently delivered LLM-powered document services. His background spans applied data science and MLOps across banking, telco, retail, and logistics, giving him strong product thinking and a user-focused approach to engineering. Pragmatic and detail-oriented, he defaults to PostgreSQL when unsure and enjoys tackling engineering puzzles—except cache invalidation and naming things.
