Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJan Kadlec is a senior software engineer with 15 years of experience building high-throughput backend systems for startups, consultancies, and large enterprises. Currently at Bloomberg after five years at Splunk, he has designed and operated petabyte-scale tracing storage and real-time data pipelines using technologies like Presto/Trino, Druid, Kafka, and Iceberg. His background spans networks, NLP, and speech recognition—having led development of SaaS NLP products and built ML pipelines for compliance at Deloitte—so he bridges low-level performance tuning (C, RCU, DNS work) with cloud-native data engineering (Java/Scala/Python, Kubernetes, AWS). Based in Boulder, he combines hands-on engineering with mentoring experience and a history of shipping systems from first principles up to production scale. An uncommon strength is his cross-domain fluency: from kernel-style optimizations in DNS to applied ML and observability at scale.
