learn data engineering online.
I'm jay 👋
A data engineer, filmmaker and educator. I currently work as a senior software engineer at Flatiron Health, where I build data pipelines and infrastructure to fight cancer. Outside my 9-5, I run a YouTube channel @jayzernwhere I teach data engineering, and work as a visiting Instructor for Data Engineer Camp.
I create educational content for data practitioners, teaching them about the modern data stack, Snowflake, dbt, Dagster and more. This comes in all forms: videos, zoom classes, blog posts, and open-source projects. You can watch some of my videos above!
Over the past years, I've written software from low-level compilers/operating systems to high-level web applications. I've worked with a variety of languages including C/C++, Python, Golang, Rust and TypeScript. You'll always find me learning about new technologies, and sharing knowledge along the way.
Some of my past projects include:
I also work with companies on developer relations and building communities. Interested in working together?
