Owen O’Malley is a software architect on Hadoop working for HortonWorks, which is a new startup focusing on Hadoop development. Prior to co-founding HortonWorks, he and the rest of the HortonWorks team worked at Yahoo developing Hadoop. He has been contributing patches to Hadoop since before it was separated from Nutch, and was the original chair of the Hadoop Project Management Committee. Before working on Hadoop, he worked on Yahoo Search’s WebMap project, which builds a graph of the known web and applies many heuristics to the entire graph that control search. Prior to Yahoo, he wandered between testing (UCI), static analysis (Reasoning), configuration management (Sun), and software model checking (NASA). He received his PhD in Software Engineering from University of California, Irvine.
