Fabian Salge
Software engineer · Hackathon enthusiast · Human
German, spent some time in Switzerland, now based in Glasgow. Coming up on a year at JPMorgan Chase, where I work on the control plane for a multi-cloud platform. Lately I'm drawn to the backend side of systems that run very different kinds of work, from always-on services to quick one-off jobs, and to how AI workloads get placed across a mix of hardware. Off the clock, I'm either at hackathons building random stuff, on the golf course, or on a mission to find Glasgow's best coffee (see rankings).
