Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolTaras Priadka is a full-stack software engineer specializing in production distributed systems, currently building AI inference infrastructure for heterogeneous hardware at Gimlet Labs. A UC Berkeley EECS graduate with a 3.98 GPA, he brings ten years of hands-on experience across Golang, C++, Rust, Python, and Kubernetes, blending backend, devops, and systems engineering. His work spans shipping performance-sensitive storage and filesystem integrations for bioinformatics workflows to contributing Kubernetes metadata support in the Pixie observability project. In research, he prototyped a data-sync microservice pattern (HotNets ’24) and a Rust-based software packet router, showing a consistent focus on low-latency, scalable designs. Known for practical impact, Taras has reduced bioinformatics processing costs by half and improved filesystem latency by 5x while maintaining a strong track record of rapid integrations across cloud and distributed storage systems.
