Urban Škudnik is a founding engineer and seasoned software professional with 16 years of experience building data-first products, BI platforms, and resilient back-end systems from Ljubljana, Slovenia. He turns spreadsheets into production-grade data products and has delivered integrations for customers with ten-figure revenues while driving measurable cost reductions and quality improvements in data pipelines. Equally comfortable in Python and SQL ecosystems, his toolkit spans Snowflake, dbt, Fivetran, PostgreSQL/MySQL, SRE practices, and deployment on Heroku, Fly.io and NixOS. He has a track record of reducing infrastructure spend (~40% at Relay Commerce) and treating incidents as signals to improve reliability and design. A pragmatic problem-solver with a physics background, he blends hands-on engineering, acquisition due diligence, and a focus on extracting business value from data.
