Luca Rossi is based in Italy, and has lived there his whole life. He has studied computer science, while being a part time musician. He left his PhD program to found a startup called Wanderio, and has been working in engineering leadership roles ever since. Outside of tech, he has been playing guitar his whole life, and he calls it the most serious thing he does outside of tech.
During the 8 years he was an engineering leader, Luca started writing about his experiences and the things he had learned along the way. People started to love it, and his venture started to gain subscribers and traction - so much so, that he stepped out to do it full-time.
Dan Lorenc got into tech in a roundabout way. Most of his time in school was dedicated to the study of Mechanical Engineering, building in the world of atoms in machine shops and with 3d printers. He learned how to program through Matlab, and he got hooked. He lives in Austin, enjoys taking in the live music scene, and likes to get outdoors - when it's not 108 degrees, like it was when we did this recording.
While Dan was at Google, the well known Solarwinds attack happened, illustrating the gaps and holes in the software supply chain space. Given he had experience in this space, paired with the Biden Administration's executive order to secure this space, led Dan and his co-founders to give this startup a try.
Yuliia Tkachova grew up in the Ukraine, but lives in Canada now. She has a family with 2 kids, and a masters in statistics. And, she acknowledges that the war with Russia has been difficult to deal with, thinking of her friends and family back home. On the lighter side, she notes that she loves Depeche Mode and Red Hot Chili Peppers, whom she has seen many times in concert. She recalls the 2010 concert in Kyiv with Depeche Mode was a moment that she cherishes.
As a data product manager, Yuliia was called out, even during the early days of her job, that her customers were going to churn - due to some erroneous data downstream. After fixing this problem, she saw the landscape of data quality issues that were likely to occur with her customers, and wanted to do something about it.
Vladimir Putin hopes the threat of cutting off fuel supplies this winter will weaken Europe’s support for Ukraine. European leaders are trying to cobble together a collective response to prevent such fracturing. Before Russia invaded, Ukraine’s surrogacy industry was booming.
