Summary
Julian Kulesh is a software engineer with 11 years of experience building high‑throughput, low‑latency systems across logistics, finance, and healthcare domains. He ships production Rust systems—most recently on trading infrastructure and a NEAR‑protocol Ethereum‑compatible blockchain—and has led migrations to simplify HIPAA‑compliant cloud architectures at scale. Comfortable as both an individual contributor and engineering lead, he pairs systems‑level rigor (tokio/async‑std, observability, security) with hands‑on work in Kotlin, Ruby, Elixir and infrastructure as code. A daily user of Rust and OCaml and a practitioner of languages and formal tools like Haskell, Agda and TLA+, he brings a researcher's curiosity to practical problems like payment gateways, search engines and trading co‑location. Based in Hong Kong, he combines deep systems know‑how with a strong interest in programming‑language design, compilers, and ML/linguistics—often exploring those areas through side projects and language experimentation.
