Hello there! I am the de facto expert in Kafka and real time asynchronous processing at Dropbox. My passion is in low latency and high throughput event processing pipelines.
Currently I am working to build Dropbox's Temporal based workflow platform for coordinating long running multi-step workflows. Previously my work has focused around building an easy to use Kafka based event processing platform that is now the gold standard for event driven applications at Dropbox.
