Hi, I'm Christian Charukiewicz. I'm a software engineer, technology & product leader, teacher, learner, avid reader, and culinary enthusiast. I'm a Partner & Principal Software Engineer at Foxhound Systems, a custom software development company that creates fast and reliable software systems. We specialize in using the Haskell programming language coupled with a variety of techniques such as SQL query optimization and database tuning to achieve superior reliability, performance, and security.
- I've been programming since the mid-2000s, and started by writing IRC scripts and tweaking forum software.
- My favorite programming language is Haskell.
- I think statically typed functional programming is a boon to developer productivity and software quality. I think that it is something that every programmer would benefit from learning.
- I'm a huge fan of Linux and run it on all of my machines, including my desktop and laptops.
- My favorite way of managing a system is using Nix, and I use it both personally and professionally.
- I try to read a variety of books.
- isbn (Author) - Haskell library for validating and manipulating ISBNs.
- yesod-auth (Contributor) - Haskell library for easy authentication in the Yesod web framework. I've made improvements to the developer-facing API to enable more control over the email-based user registration and password reset work flows.
- esqueleto (Contributor) - Haskell library for writing type-safe SQL queries. I've improved the library's coverage of SQL and also wrote detailed documentation and examples for its new query DSL syntax.
