Gabriel PREDA

Public Speaker, Small Business Owner, and Consultant in Bucharest, Romania

I have over 15 years experience in developing web applications. My career begun in an NGO that allowed me to test a lot of technologies (web or not). That period was followed by great challenges in international project for French, Chinese and Dutch market. Starting from 2009 I worked for a local analytics website (trafic.ro) for about 4 years.

For the next 4 years I was a part of the Brainient team (acquire by https://teads.tv/) where I was doing: analytics for cross-device interactive video ads, MySQL DBA and also Infrastructure related tasks. Here I also started to work w/ Google Cloud and got hooked. I'm now a big fan of Google AppEngine, BigQuery.

Starting late 2016 I joined Bandai Namco Entertainment Romania where I worked as SRE.

Starting April 2019 I'm back in advertising (but this time audio only) at AdsWizz.

In my spare time I like spending time with my family. Any other remaining time is spent as a Fedora Ambassador, promoting Google Cloud products and working on some open source projects.
