Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAllan Boll is a seasoned software engineer with nine years of professional experience and a strong background in networking and cloud infrastructure, currently based in the San Francisco Bay Area. He has driven technical design and implementation of high-performance firewall and networking systems at Microsoft and Google, including leading a new Go-based firewall engine and Nginx C integration using gRPC and Hyperscan. His work spans control-plane telemetry, deployment automation, and performance analysis, and he has contributed to ModSecurity and the OWASP Core Rule Set. Allan combines systems-level thinking with practical ops experience—from CI/docker workflows to DNS and time-zone aware deployments—reflecting roots in IT administration and early consulting. He holds an MSc in Computer Science and Engineering from DTU and is comfortable translating complex distributed systems requirements into efficient, production-grade solutions. A detail that often goes unnoticed: he brings hands-on low-level integration experience (C plugins, regex engines) alongside cloud-scale architecture skills.
