Summary
Sylvia Mirecki is a hands-on CTO and founder with 13 years of experience building distributed systems and developer-focused products, currently leading Searchless, an AI-powered video interview platform, with a SvelteKit front end and Rust backend. Her background spans systems and data engineering at Dropbox and Amazon, where she scaled storage services and redesigned ETL and caching pipelines to cut costs and onboarding time dramatically. She blends low-level embedded expertise—hand-wiring a 6502 computer and writing bootloaders and music players in assembly—with modern backend work in Rust, Go, Scala, and Spark. A lifelong tinkerer and polyglot learner, she explores linguistics, knowledge graphs, and LLM interactions while shipping reliable production systems. Notably, she builds ambitious side projects (OpenGL fractal renderer, 0-dependency B compiler, audio synthesis Lisp) that reveal a rare mix of systems, graphics, and language-design instincts.
