Hi there! My name is Adrian. My MBTI personality is ISTP-A, nice to meet you !


I am a passionate software engineer, consultant and data analyst, excited to work on technology at scale that brings positive changes in society.


Complexity obtained through simplicity is my ultimate goal, and I aim for coincidence only by design.

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.


I then worked for over four years at Morgan Stanley UK as a software engineer, creating reporting automation platforms and leading the transition from thick clients to the web stack.


Currently I work at Google UK, in gTech, as a Technical Solutions Architect, helping Google clients improve their website performance and make the best use of Google products, bringing positive impact to their bottom line.


Pursuing my interests in data analytics, I am completing an MSc. in Business Analytics from the University of Bath (UK).

most inspiring quote

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.

Joseph Weizenbaum

passions

Software Engineering

is my number one passion . I enjoy working on full-stack projects and experiencing the satisfaction of people using products I have contributed to.


Data and Business Analytics

are what I implement at the core of every product, considering both user and backend metrics to drive insight and knowledge extraction for business decision making.

UX & UI

are at the core of my projects. I'm excited about creating seemless experiences, taking into account accessibility and best practices.


Game Development

is fascinating in the immense complexity behind games played by millions, both in terms of graphics and scalability. I enjoy the freedom of expression brought by GD.

Photography

is something I enjoy in my free time, capturing beautiful moments with my Nikon D5300.
