Summary

Top School
Mark Kegel is a senior software engineer with 11 years of experience building high-performance distributed systems across streaming, finance, telecom, and e-commerce. He has led and delivered critical playback quality and client-optimization services at Disney Streaming, architected low-latency command-and-control pipelines with Apache Flink and Spark, and co-invented patented approaches that materially reduced video start failures. Equally comfortable as an IC, tech lead, or co-founder, he combines deep systems-level C/C++, Scala, Java, and Go expertise with functional programming and effect systems to solve operationally demanding problems (including air-gapped and globally redundant environments). His background includes compiler and language design for JP Morgan’s regulatory pipelines, building a distributed MicroDB for on-device search, and shipping end-to-end platforms from datacenter to AWS. Based in Minneapolis, he’s passionate about metrics, monitoring, and practical FP, and often draws on uncommon cross-domain experience to quickly prototype robust, production-ready solutions.
