Camille Teicheira

present

since 2020 I've been a software engineer at Sofar Ocean. As of 2023 I'm a staff software engineer there.
I work with scientists to build and run massive weather models, and design and maintain public APIs backed by highly available data pipelies. I built the data team, have designed new data structures for accessing complex time series data, and done a lot of beach cleanup.

past

2017 - 2020, I traveled the world, documenting the experience at there.today and on instagram @theretoday!
I overlanded the Americas from Patagonia (Ushuaia, Argentina) to California with my partner Ryan in a big old 4x4 van named Rocinante.
During that time I ate good food, rode wild horses, learned Spanish slang, made silly projects like yonder.space and moto bingo, mapped the new roads in OSM, climbed many volcanoes, and waved back at the ocean πŸŒŠπŸ‘‹.
2014 - 2017, I worked at Mapbox in San Francisco as a software engineer.
I covered a lot of ground there working on geocoding, enterprise map servers, API building, traffic data analysis, metrics tooling, image stitching, but most of my tenure was spent on telemetry data and using massive datasets for traffic, map improvement, and user insight.
2013, I helped start Maptime with some friends (πŸ‘‹ Beth, Alan, & Lyzi).
We helped build a global community around maps and tech education (πŸ’› to all our organizer friends around the world).
2012 - 2013, I helped Stamen Design herd cats (and spider plants, and clients).
I've done some public speaking at Web Rebels, CalGIS, MozFest, and Github (among others), and have a patent with Mapbox, and some publications with the team at Sofar.
I have an Anthropology degree from UC Berkeley, and before tech, I made food for people. Other interests include bicycles, making jam, and big stupid art.
