Tom Lancaster is a Senior Director of Data Engineering at Quizlet. He attended the University of Bristol.
Tom is a world citizen and passionate believer in the power of technology to help people. Born in the UK, he migrated to the US as a teenager, and has since lived in the UK (again), France, Israel, and Vietnam. Tom is fluent in English, French
and Vietnamese and more computer languages than he cares to recall.
Tom's approach to creating great software, while drawing on agile methodology, is not dogmatic, and emphasizes the concept of development operations: developers should be comfortable administering and securing the server environment as well as just writing code. Above all, he never loses sight of the need for software to answer a human problem.
As the father of two small children Tom does not, actually, have any spare time. If he did he would likely train for a marathon, play and compose music.
