I was unfortunately affected by this (in the Data Organization).

Shame - Shopify is a fun place where I've learned a ton. We were just getting a cool Data product off the ground.

Well, if anybody's got a need for a Staff/Lead Data Engineer (Remote EST) with experience in Scala (+cats/fs2), Python, go who has spent the last 10+ years building Data Products on BI, then Hadoop, then GCP (+ the Apache Zoo, lately namely Kafka/Iceberg/Beam), my email is in my profile. :)

Hey, I just found your LinkedIn Profile and noticed that we studied at the same university - even the same degree! I've send you a request on LinkedIn, so maybe we could connect and have a chat?

Have a great day!

Good luck. No doubt you will be employed quickly.
