Senior🎓
Top SchoolRustom Shareef is a seasoned Staff Software Developer based in Greater Vancouver with 13 years of engineering experience and 7+ years focused on designing high-performance data management and analytics systems. He brings deep expertise in databases, C, Rust, SQL, Apache Arrow and low-level performance work, having improved Db2 index manager internals and built a unified SQL query layer using Arrow DataFusion. Rustom has moved between enterprise and startup environments—from IBM and Workday to GlareDB and Visier—consistently shipping performance-critical features and resilient diagnostics for production systems. He pairs systems-level debugging (memory corruption, deadlocks, data races) with pragmatic engineering practices like automated test infrastructure and object-store caching. Notably, he combines hands-on Rust systems work with a history of coordinating teams and sprint delivery, making him comfortable both as an individual contributor and a technical lead.
