About Me
(in about 541 words)
Intro
Hey, I'm Bobby. I am a DevOps/Software engineer who ships production code and cloud infrastructure with focus on security. I did my B.Sc. at the University of British Columbia specializing in Honours Computer Science and Physics. I love the outdoors and nature, and spend my free time surrounded by it. That is when I am not looking at a screen.
Currently
I am building SynKube, a secure multi-cloud platform (Terraform, Kubernetes, GitOps, shift-left security), and an agent platform for delivery automation. Through October 2026 I was on MetaMask’s DevSecOps team at Consensys — a wallet with tens of millions of monthly active users — working on AWS/EKS, extension release security, and service onboarding automation. I am open to senior platform, DevSecOps, and software engineering roles in Seattle or remote.
Some history
- Growing up in Bulgaria I always enjoyed studying English and wanted to move to an English speaking country.
- In grade 8 I was terrified to take my first Physics class, but 10 minutes into the class I realized I absolutely loved it.
- When applying for universities I ended up getting rejected for Physics and only accepted for CS degrees (which were my backup choices). I had to accept an offer for CS and transfer to Physics later on. However CS was quite enjoyable so I did both and now work entirely in the CS industry.
- I didn't expect to spend 5 years at SAP, but I have constantly found new opportunities and challenges and enjoyed my work.
- Moving to Coinbase was a calculated risk during a down market for Crypto, but it turned out alright.
- After joining Synapse I was the only DevOps engineer and got to setup our blockchain infrastructure the way I saw fit and learned a lot doing it.
- At Consensys I moved from pure infra into DevSecOps for MetaMask — threat modeling, shift-left pipelines, and cutting onboarding time from weeks to under a day.
- These days I am heads-down on SynKube and agent tooling when I am not outdoors.
- Two months after meeting my girlfriend, we went backpacking in Southeast Asia for 3 months. It was a great experience and we are still together.
