Principal Software Engineer, Product Security at Webcomposite s.r.o.
Prague, Prague, Czechia
Summary
🤩
RockstarJim Fuller is a Principal Software Engineer in product security based in Prague with 14+ years building high-performance, cloud-native systems and petabyte-scale data platforms. A true polyglot, he blends deep experience in PostgreSQL tuning, HTTP/libcurl performance, multi-model databases and ETL across XML/JSON/protobuf and RDF graph stacks. He has a long track record at companies like Red Hat and MarkLogic, contributing to CI/test automation and even adding unit tests to widely used open-source projects such as curl. Obsessive about build, test and automation, Jim pairs practical systems engineering with applied computational methods (ML, CA, GA, network analysis) to extract value from unstructured data. Equally comfortable in C, Python and XQuery as in containerized and serverless deployments, he repeatedly bridges product security, performance and data engineering. He is a continuous autodidact who deliberately mixes old and new technologies to solve real-world scale problems.
