I’m Viorel Spinu, I’ve been into software development for the last 25 years.
For the last four years I am part of Cegeka (Java Enterprise & blockchain solution, Machine Learning, Innovation until 2020, then part of the Horizon Division as backend developer), between 2013 and 2018 I’ve been building my own robotics & IOT company, and before that I’ve been doing software outsourcing for seven years developing solutions used by British Telecom, EA, Carrefour Worldwide and others. For three years I’ve been writing Java code for Orange Romania and MC Donald’s Corporation. My first six years into programming were about FoxPro 2.6 and Visual FoxPro.

I joined the Cegeka Horizon Team
New challenging experiences ahead as I am now part of the Cegeka Horizon Team as a backend developer. Horizon is the single point of entry to manage all cloud services, a multi-cloud platform which allows Cegeka customers to access and work with their resources, no matter they are supported by a public cloud (AWS/Azure/Google) or the Cegeka private cloud. A microservice based architecture, Python code and a soon-to-be message bus which we are going to add to the mix soon.
Neural network based remote presenter
I hate computer presenters. I never seem able to remember which button goes forward on my slides. This is why I've built my own neural-network-powered vision remote presenter. Full details here -
