Lyubomir Gavadinov

I'm a senior software engineer with over 7 years of experience working for a variety of companies.

For most of my career I was at Amazon and AWS where I got to work on various projects, from designing and building high scale distributed systems to optimising the performance of low level streaming protocols.

I have written plenty of C, Java and JavaScript in my days, but when I discovered Rust a couple of years ago I immediately fell in love with it.
