Hello there! I'm Adrian, a software engineer, consultant, and data analyst. I'm passionate about leveraging technology at scale to drive positive changes in society.
Apart from my professional pursuits, I have a keen interest in photography, capturing beautiful moments. You can check out my photography portfolio on Instagram .
education & experience
Originally from 🇷🇴 Romania, I have relocated to the 🇬🇧 UK where I pursued a BSc. in Computer Science at the University of Manchester with a one year software engineering internship at Morgan Stanley UK.
Following my studies, I dedicated over four years to Morgan Stanley UK as a software engineer. I successfully contributed to the development of reporting automation platforms and played a pivotal role in leading the transition from thick clients to cutting-edge feature-rich web applications.
Currently I work as a Software Engineer at Google, helping Google Cloud develop the next-gen solution platform .
In my pursuit of my passion for data analytics, I have completed an MSc. in Business Analytics from the University of Bath (UK).
life philosophy
The computer programmer is a creator of universes for which he alone is the lawgiver. No playwright, no stage director, no emperor, however powerful, has ever exercised such absolute authority to arrange a stage or field of battle and to command such unswervingly dutiful actors or troops.
It is easy to get lost in day to day tasks and forget the power and potential at our finger-tips. This quote helps ground me in the long-term impact of the work we do, whether its coding, system design, Uis, configs, requirements docs, design docs, meetings or anything in-between.
passions
Don't even get me started on all the things I dwelve in, albeit they are mostly technical in nature. Compilers and game engines, data analytics and building mini-datacenters at home, and last but not least photography!
