Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolFelix Angelov is a founding engineer and seasoned software developer with a decade of experience building developer tools, CLI/DevOps workflows, and cross-platform Flutter apps. His work spans full-stack and mobile engineering—from implementing Dart CLIs and dev servers to shipping camera features and state management examples for high-profile Flutter projects. A principal engineer at Very Good Ventures before co-founding Shorebird, he focuses on enabling enterprises to adopt Flutter and multi-platform delivery. He’s a prolific open-source contributor to widely used projects like equatable, bloc, mason, and dart_frog, improving core libraries with null-safety, testing, and CLI ergonomics. Felix combines hands-on implementation (e.g., camera_web, Shorebird’s code-push tooling) with infrastructure know-how like Dockerized test environments and mono-repo refactors. Based in Skokie, IL, he’s the kind of engineer who ships reliable dev tools by night as readily as by day.
