 I run the engineering organization in IBM Research that is building "accelerated science" and digital health services. Previously, I developed Scala software at Lightbend and Domino Data Lab, and I helped spread the word about Ray at Anyscale. Besides Scala, my expertise includes MLOps, data systems, and the full software development lifecycle. I am also the author of several books:

  -- "Programming Scala, Third Edition", a practical book for experienced software developers that introduces this important, modern programming language.

 -- "Programming Hive", a comprehensive guide to Hive, the SQL tool for Hadoop (coauthors: Ed Capriolo and Jason Rutherglen).

 -- "Functional Programming for Java Developers", a succinct introduction for Java developers to the concepts of functional programming, where I motivate its importance and demonstrate how to use FP concepts in Java programs.

 -- I contributed to Robert Martin's classic, "Clean Code: A Handbook of Agile Software Craftsmanship"
