The name is Ziflaj, Aldo Ziflaj (cue the Bond music)…

I am a Software Engineer @ Dealfront working out of Tirana, Albania.

My hobby in computers sparked in 2008, coincidentally during the Financial crisis of 2007-2008. They say coincidences don’t really exist and some people are still feeling the consequences of the crisis, so my lawyer advises me to say I am not in any way to accept responsibility about it.

Many consider me skilled in a multitude of technologies, as you can figure out from this blog of a plethora of unrelated and just-for-fun projects and technologies. My main skillset includes Ruby and Rails, though I sometimes indulge in other lower-level languages such as Golang. I have a sweet spot for software systems at large scale, managing loads of traffic and breaking monoliths into smaller services.
