Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolSergei Grebnov is a senior software engineer and engineering leader with 14 years of professional experience and a PhD in Computer Science, currently building AI-driven developer tooling at Spice AI in Bellevue. He has a proven track record of shipping cross-platform mobile, desktop, and backend systems, having led engineering teams at Akvelon and contributed substantial fixes and platform support across well-known Apache Cordova projects. Sergei combines a get-things-done mindset with deep technical rigor—evident from his enhancements to the Apache DataFusion SQL engine and long history of platform-specific interoperability work on Windows, Android, and iOS. An Olympic-caliber problem solver in competitive programming and academic contests (ACM ICPC regional winner, Imagine Cup laureate), he brings research-level thinking to practical product delivery and continuous improvement. He’s as comfortable refactoring build systems and plug-ins as he is optimizing query unparsing and data-type handling for real-world SQL dialects.
