Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolVladimir Gapeyev is a Staff Software Engineer with 17 years of experience applying programming-language theory and type systems to practical data and query-language problems. He has driven architecture and implementation of query languages and multidimensional data systems at companies including dbt Labs, Amazon (PartiQL), Infor, and LogicBlox, often turning formal semantics into production-ready tooling. Comfortable across paradigms—functional, object-oriented, reactive, and declarative—he combines domain analysis, data modeling, and API/DSL design to solve complex data-access and type-inference challenges. His background spans academia and industry (PhD-level research and work at IBM Research and Duke), which he leverages to learn technologies through standards and specifications rather than tutorials. Notably, he introduced graph-query capabilities to a SQL++ variant and has prototyped parametric polymorphism with subtyping for data-control scenarios. Based in Long Beach, CA, he favors rigorous, specification-driven solutions that scale from library internals to product features.
