Summary
🤩
RockstarDavid Rauschenbach is a seasoned software leader and founder with 25 years of experience building high-impact data, analytics, and cloud-native systems. He has led production-scale initiatives from a 150-node Spark deployment for Sempra Energy to metadata engineering for Theseus, a GPU-native OLAP database at Voltron Data. As CEO of multiple ventures he now focuses on Rust-first platform and edge solutions—authoring a Rails-inspired code generator for Rust gRPC backends and a Rust agent that runs embedded lambdas with WASM, Lua, and JavaScript. His specialty is replacing legacy, energy-inefficient stacks with memory-safe Rust services that shrink operational risk while enabling realtime inference at the source. Comfortable from low-level database design to SaaS platform patterns, he combines pragmatic architecture with hands-on delivery across constrained-edge and large cloud clusters. Based in Ladera Ranch, CA, he often bridges research-grade systems (GPU databases, ML inference) into production with an eye for measurable safety and efficiency gains.
