Hello World, I’m Orell


Freelance software and data engineering consultant.

Orell Garten

Who am I

I am an experienced software engineering and data engineering consultant specialized in building data-driven products at the intersection of software and data, with expertise in the Python and C++ ecosystems.

After being in academia for a while and going through the process of founding a startup, I wanted to make an immediate impact on projects and decided to become a freelancer. I have about 7 years of experience and do two things well:

  • software engineering, especially in technical fields
  • data engineering, especially focusing on operational data

Most of my work happens with Python and C++ and typical libraries in their ecosystems.

Contact me at hello@orellgarten.com (PGP key) or book a call to find out how we can work together.

What I care about

There are a few things I care about and which I am willing to share

  • I care about diversity and openess. We are all human.
  • I like to solve problems, usually with code, but my work should have some impact.
  • I care about developer experience which is lacking in many development and engineering environments.
