Summary
Gleb Kolobkov is a Senior DevOps Engineer based in Seattle with 11+ years of cross-platform software engineering experience spanning backend, mobile, desktop, and cloud-native systems. He specializes in high-performance systems and advanced build tooling—Bazel, Buck, and Pants—and has led large-scale Bazel migrations, porting millions of lines of code and contributing as a recognized Bazel community expert. His background in algorithms, data structures, and multithreading informs work on high-throughput remote caching and CI optimizations, implemented in C++20 and later Rust. Gleb combines startup grit—co-founding Flare.build and executing an acquisition—with enterprise impact at companies like Snowflake and NVIDIA, bridging developer productivity and infrastructure reliability. An unusual strength is his hands-on fluency across languages and runtimes (from TensorFlow/CoreML mobile engines to Go and Rust tooling), enabling him to both architect and implement performant build-and-test ecosystems.
