About
Hi, I am Cuong Le.
I'm Head of Engineering at Feral File, where I manage a 25-engineer team building the Feral File platform and the FF1 art computer. Feral File is a platform for curated digital and software art; FF1 is our small art computer that plays computational and generative works on any screen. I care equally about growing teams and staying close to the code. In my free time I use Rust for many things; lately I'm deep into database internals.
What I write about
Deep, first-principles explanations about Rust with simple language and concrete examples.
Storage engines and data systems: LSM trees, compaction, caches, I/O paths, and reliability, plus system design from the storage layer to real-time analytics.
Connect
I love meeting engineers, founders, and researchers who care about high-quality systems work.
