Summary
Marcin Nikliborc is a seasoned Scala backend engineer with 12 years of experience building event-driven systems and large-scale AI integrations from Wrocław, Poland. He currently develops in Scala at Chili Piper and serves as a core maintainer and part-time consultant for Cloudentity’s Pyron API Gateway, shaping design and core implementation. Previously he led a team of five at UBS designing Kafka-based streaming applications, combining hands-on coding with technical leadership across Akka Streams, Kafka Streams and functional libraries like Cats and Scalaz. His background spans the full server-side stack—from JVM languages and streaming platforms to API gateways and system integration—grounded in an MS in Computer Science. Notably, he has a long history of building production-grade middleware and connector work (from JIRA sync tools to high-throughput ad crawlers), which gives him a pragmatic sense for operational reliability and performance. Colleagues rely on him for thoughtful architecture reviews and steady delivery on complex, distributed systems.
