I like to research and implement areas around RDBMS, distributed processing, and data platforms.
Some cars in the current world are, and many cars in the future will be "connected cars", which generate various data such as sensor data and images, and send them to servers (cloud and on-premise) via the Internet. It is our job to make the use of this data more convenient and secure, and to devise ways to prevent the in-car devices from sending too much extra data.
I hope to use the power of software to create better cars for our customers and society.
