Summary
Michalina Sidor is a pragmatic software engineer with 12 years of experience, currently working on GKE Networking at Google where she helped stabilize DNS for container clusters and shipped a CoreDNS-backed solution. She thrives on hunting down subtle bugs and race conditions—often Ctrl+clicking through dependencies until the root cause surrenders—and builds internal tools that fill gaps teams didn't know they had. Comfortable in Golang and Python, she dreams of writing Rust professionally and has hands-on Rust experience from Sentry, where she fixed compression and tricky data-ordering bugs. Her background spans frontend work, embedded tinkering (ESP8266 treasure-chest WiFi), and systems-level roles at places like Arista and Samsung, reflecting a broad, practical toolkit. Based in Warsaw with a master's in computer science, she values public-benefit work over trend-chasing and brings a detective’s curiosity plus a taste for non-obvious technical and cultural perspectives.
