1. A modern and highly-funded insurance company for whom we create and use a generic framework written in a Functional Programming way on top of Apache Spark, to ingest, validate, transform, store and export data from various sources. We're cooperating with some well-known, world-class Scala experts and there's a lot of places to show your skills on cracking hard problems. 
   Tech Stack: Scala, Spark, AWS (EMR, EC2, S3, Codebuild)
   
   
2. A huge retailer, with tons of data stored in a large, on-prem Hadoop Cluster, which we're extending with cutting edge, flexible, cloud-based solutions.
