sspaeti/README.md

Hi there 👋

I'm Simon, a dad and a family person who pivoted into Technical Writing after 20 years in Data Engineering. My passion for this field is shown on my blog, ssp.sh, where I share open-source data engineering articles, aiming to enrich our community with genuine insights. I've been writing online since 2015, and have been featured 20+ times on the front page of HN.

At the core of my work is the «Data Engineering Vault», a continuously curated hub of data engineering knowledge designed for interactive and explorative learning. It features over 1000+ interconnected terms, each an opportunity for deeper understanding, enabling you to explore topics in a more connected way, unlike traditional approaches.

I'm currently crafting an unfinished book (monthly updated) on Patterns of Data Engineering (PoDE), freely accessible on dedp.online. Here, I regularly publish new chapters, incorporating your feedback to make it a collaborative knowledge base of DE patterns.

My creative engine comes from a sophisticated PKM workflow that leverages tools like Obsidian and Neovim, and specifically vim-motions, for efficient, fun writing. I share much of it, including topics on data engineering, open-source, writing, and more, on my public Second Brain.

To dive deeper into my world, visit my GitHub projects, check out my Now Page, read My Pathless Path, see my Latest Gigs, or explore ideas in my Newsletter. Thank you for visiting, and I look forward to connecting with you.

Sponsor

I like writing about open-source data engineering and teaching what I have learned through my 20+ years. I hope to do this full-time one day. You can sponsor my work here or sponsor a chapter on my book.
