Summary
👤
SeniorMartin Gallagher is a pragmatic systems engineer and entrepreneur with 11 years of professional experience building high-performance backend systems and marketplaces. As founder of Encycolorpedia he blends Rust SIMD optimisations for compute-heavy tasks (like Delta E paint matching) with Golang backends, vanilla TypeScript frontends and PostgreSQL-driven data pipelines. He has held senior roles implementing low-latency, data-intensive infrastructure in Rust and Go across fintech, crypto, and mobility domains—shipping tooling for blockchain data, vehicle routing, and wallet orchestration. Comfortable across cloud platforms (AWS, GCP), IaC (Terraform, CDK) and CI/CD, he routinely moves teams to production-safe patterns and performance-first architectures. Notably, he’s equally fluent in writing performance-critical Rust async streams and pragmatic Go microservices, often bridging the two in polyglot stacks. Based in England, he combines solo-founder grit with deep hands-on engineering across the full delivery lifecycle.
