Senior🎓
Top SchoolTassos Bareiss is a former software engineer with nine years of experience who now teaches high school math in Albuquerque, blending rigorous technical problem-solving with classroom pedagogy. He progressed from full-stack and backend roles at Relevant Healthcare—rising from Software Engineer to Staff Engineer—into education after stints as an instructor at App Academy and a Fulbright teaching scholar. His open-source work includes substantive contributions to the widely used pg_query Ruby extension, improving SQL parsing and accurate identification of functions and tables in complex queries. Comfortable translating complex systems for diverse audiences, he’s equally at home debugging production databases or designing lessons that make abstract math tangible. This mix of production engineering, open-source collaboration, and hands-on teaching gives him a rare ability to bridge software, data, and education.
