Today, McKinney works full time on Pandas and other open-source data science projects as a software engineer(...)

I've been working on innovating core computational and IO infrastructure for pandas (and projects like pandas) --
much of this work has been happening in other codebases. See: http://wesmckinney.com/blog/apache-arrow-pandas-internals/
