Balazs Laczko

Currently working as a Backend Developer at Frankly. I mostly work on the backend of various Danfoss Digital Tools. These are written in C# .NET, they use MSSQL and SQLite databases and run on Microsoft Azure infrastructure. The data pipeline I built runs on Databricks and it is written in Python.
I'm the Team Lead of the four person team that is maintaining these tools. Those responsibilities include sprint planning and management using Azure DevOps, as well as coordinating the releases.
At a hobby level I worked with Docker, Typescript and JavaScript. I have some experience with frontend development using the Angular framework. These personal projects are hosted on AWS and Cloudflare.
While working at NI, I was developing solutions for testing hardware. I used LabVIEW, TestStand and a wide variety of NI hardware products. The work also involved some hardware design. During that time I was also involved with intern training and mentoring, as well as a bit of teaching analog & digital measurement at the University of Debrecen.
