Hey there 👋
I'm a Technical Lead at Postman focusing on Desktop Engineering and a graduate student at University of Oxford. I'm currently working on various projects:
-
Starship: I'm leading the development of a next-generation comprehensive framework to build cross-platform desktop applications using web technologies codenamed Starship. If you are into Chromium, Electron.js, C++, JavaScript and remote working, do reach out. We've closed a Series D round of $225M and we are hiring!
-
JSON BinPack: I'm building a space-efficient schema-driven binary serialization format for IoT and the web based on JSON Schema called JSON BinPack. My research so far has proven this format to be more space-efficient than ASN.1 PER, Apache Avro, Microsoft Bond, BSON, Cap'n Proto, CBOR, FlatBuffers, MessagePack, Protocol Buffers, Smile, Apache Thrift and UBJSON in every case when taking a sample set of real-world documents. This project will be open-source once I submit my dissertation!
If we share similar interests, shoot me an e-mail and let's have a virtual coffee to exchange thoughts!
Previous projects
- Etcher: I created and led the development of Etcher, a popular open-source cross-platform image flasher.
