Sergiu Ciumac is a founder and CEO with 14 years of hands‑on software engineering experience, currently leading visely.io and emysound.com from Chișinău, Moldova. He builds production ML and recommendation systems at the intersection of streaming, search and NLP, using technologies like Spark, Kafka, Cassandra, Solr and Scala/Java while still shipping core code himself. An open-source maintainer of a .NET audio fingerprinting library, he brings deep expertise in backend systems, database integration and robust testing—work that powers fast audio/video identification in Emysound. Sergiu combines startup generalist rigor with systems-level engineering, having moved from telecom and enterprise roles into founding products that solve real-time search and retrieval problems. He’s driven by information retrieval research and an interest in exploring alternative programming paradigms beyond the JVM.
