Paul is an experienced developer with a main focus on server side Java/Scala. Lately, he has striven to use modern reactive approaches to building reliable and resource-efficient applications. He values and promotes robust systems through his work with in-depth protection and maintainable code with clear logical separation. Paul seeks to understand and solve the roots of problems to solve, rather than simply finding quick fixes.
