Thanks for the honor!

Okay, time for some bragging :) I've been working at JetBrains for some 17 
years, most of them on IntelliJ platform, mainly supporting various languages 
and their infrastructure, analyzing snapshots and improving performance. Aiming 
to catch more bugs before they hit production, I've introduced property-based 
testing to IntelliJ by creating a small library called jetCheck. Recently I've 
switched to the Grazie project and now I do some rule-based computational 
linguistics there and enhance the IDE support for English. As Grazie needs 
LanguageTool and Hunspell, I've also spent some time rewriting the latter in 
Java (here in Lucene), and optimizing them both. In my free time, I like 
mountain hiking (Munich/Germany is a great location for that!), and some 
amateur piano/harmonica playing/singing.
