Ivan Dachev is a Principal Software Architect with over 25 years of hands-on experience designing and delivering scalable systems across cloud, embedded, and web domains. He blends deep language expertise (Java, C++, Python) and broad cloud fluency (AWS, GCP, Azure) with practical leadership in data and architecture roles—from CTO and co-founder to senior engineering at VMware. Ivan drives complex, high-throughput solutions (including vehicle logistics at Ship.Cars USA) and applies Domain-Driven Design, Temporal.io workflows, and modern AI/LLM tooling to production problems. His background spans mobile OSGi and low-level embedded work to eCommerce platforms and big data analytics, giving him an uncommon ability to bridge firmware-level constraints with cloud-native architectures. Based in Sofia, he couples continuous technical curiosity with a track record of choosing pragmatic stacks that solve real-world scale and performance challenges.
