Summary
Miklós Szőts is a Lead Java Developer and seasoned tech lead with a decade of experience designing high-performance distributed systems and data platforms, currently at Pandora in Copenhagen. He specializes in Scala-based, functional backends and has driven scaling efforts for billions of events per day using Kafka, Spark and AWS while automating infrastructure and monitoring. His background blends hands-on engineering—from low-level throughput optimizations to GraphQL and microservices—with people-facing responsibilities like hiring, training and cross-team technical direction. Motivated to broaden his toolset, he is actively learning Rust and improving frontend skills (including WebAssembly) to bridge gaps between systems and UI. Colleagues know him for pragmatic architecture decisions, a focus on automation, and a habit of translating complex infrastructure needs into teachable practices. Outside work he recharges by reading about technology, traveling and road biking, a sign of his methodical yet curious approach to problem solving.
