Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolRodrigo Gadea is a founder and software engineer from Chile with over a decade of hands-on experience building high-performance computational statistics systems and backend architectures. Trained as a statistician and former university instructor and researcher, he blends rigorous quantitative thinking with practical software engineering—having led architecture and tech efforts across startups and production services. He specializes in scalable backend stacks (Django/DRF, Celery, Redis, Postgres/MySQL, Nginx) and low-latency statistical computation, running his own company ThetaBits since 2011. Rodrigo’s background includes documentation and benchmarking work at Percona and end-to-end DevOps responsibilities, so he’s comfortable from algorithm design through deployment and monitoring. Less obvious: he has translated academic statistical models (e.g., transplant waiting-list forecasting and robust clustering research) into production-ready systems, bridging research and product delivery.
