Welcome
My name is Matthias Rüedlinger or Matt for short. I’m an Data Enthusiast on my way to Mastery, Purpose and Autonomy. Real-time data and machine learning is my passion.
In the past years I worked with great people on interesting projects with technologies like Hadoop, Apache Spark, Kafka, K8S, Java, Kotlin and Python. I have worked for over 15 years in the IT industry as a consultant for different companies.
