About

My name is Rudi, currently a full-time software engineer at Arcol based in NYC. My professional interests are to bring the ideas of web-based collaborative software to create tools that improve professional workflows. With a penchant towards performance and computer graphics.
Previously, I worked at Figma for several years. I’ve worked on variety of areas including the design editor, product features, stability, frontend web infrastructure, the plugin API, real-time data infrastructure.
I graduated with a degree in Computer Science at University of Waterloo. I was fortunate to learn a lot from my internships Airbnb, Jane Street, Dropbox and Side Effects Software and was in the Recurse Center Summer 1 ‘17 batch. In this blog, I try to put words together in sentences such that they may be interesting and occasionally useful.
