Hi there 👋

I’m Hugo: a software engineer who enjoys working on distributed systems, databases and graph-data problems.

I’ve spent the last 6 years working at Neo4j, first on the clustered version of the database, and now on the full managed DBaaS: Aura. Before that I worked as a Research Engineer and did a PhD at Newcastle University in the UK.

🔭 Worked on

In addition to my pinned repos, here are a few interesting things I've worked on "behind closed doors":

  • Several large extensions to Neo4j's Raft implementation including mulit-raft, leadership transfer and raft observers/non-voters.
  • An eventually consistent discovery service for Neo4j clusters built upon CRDTs and gossip.
  • Techniques for sharding graphs, optimising data distribution for a provided query workload to be executed over the graph.
