Jan Finis
Senior Software Engineer, Tableau
Jan obtained his computer science Master's degree from the Technical University of Munich (TUM) in 2006. Afterwards, he spent five years at the TUM Chair for database systems, developing Hyper and earning his Ph.D. in database systems. In late 2015, they spun Hyper off the Chair as a startup, of which Jan was a co-founder. In early 2016, their startup joined Tableau. Having worked on Hyper from its early beginnings, Jan is happy to have the chance to continue developing Hyper into a real product.
