Hello, I'm Aram.
Hi, I'm a Software Development Manager working on Ad Tech in Media (the "sell side"). I previously built a Privacy and Security Compliance engineering team and worked on a SaaS media ad tech team, helping publishers to maximize site performance and revenue. I've also worked on R&D and Big Data teams.
In my spare time I work on open source stuff and websites. You can find me on various online platforms & communities.
You can find out more about me, what I use, the books that I have been reading and what I am up to now.
