Meskauskas Audrius Summary

I started my carrier as a programming researcher and have scientific articles. In the past, my two largest projects were distributed computing with advanced 3D data structures (reprinted in Nature, done in Manchester university) and advanced data processing flows systems (in Bioinformatics, done in Ulm university). I also have around 100 000 code lines of documented contribution to the Linux (mostly implementing CORBA specification for GNU Classpath). I have a doctoral degree in general biology.

In 2006 I have joined a research oriented company 'Spectraseis' that, while belonging to oil industry, needed a broad view specialists to develop new software. The tasks were so unusual and challenging that specialists from various relevant areas (in my case from bioinformatics) were invited to make sure the company is not stuck with the traditional oil industry software approaches that cannot solve its challenging tasks. I have progressed reasonably well here, and since 2009 am an official leader of the team.
