Lauris Dzilums | About

Hi, I’m Lauris Dziļums, a software developer with over a decade of experience in building efficient, scalable, and resilient full-stack projects. I enjoy using Scala, JavaScript, Go, and Rust, paired with a finely tuned PostgreSQL. I’ve also done extensive client work using the good old PHP and MySQL but am no longer seeking to return to those days :) I’ve worked as a backend engineer at several large-scale companies, including one of the largest crypto exchanges in the world. I’ve built several startups from the ground up and helped others launch their own. I’m also deeply interested in security, penetration testing, operational security, information security, and auditing source code.

Startups and projects:

• Calmer – Anxiety and panic attack relief app
• StockMarketGame.net – Mobile trading simulator and interactive school to learn about stock market
• BitcoinHero – Free Bitcoin trading simulator
• Datazenit – MySQL and PostgreSQL GUI database tool
• Sensei Grid – Lightweight data grid library used in Datazenit
• Awesome Scala – List of awesome Scala libraries
• Hiburo – Lightweight team management web app (deprecated)
• GetSSL.me – The fastest way to get SSL certificates for a reasonable price (deprecated)
