Top SchoolStefan Angelov is a seasoned software architect and founder with 11 years of experience designing and leading cloud-native, event-driven systems across fintech and gaming. He has driven architecture and engineering teams at Nexo, Trading 212 and PokerStars, specializing in Java/Spring, Kafka/ksqlDB, AWS and high-throughput distributed patterns.

An uncommon detail: he started from PHP/SQL web work and progressed into real-time, stream-processing architectures, giving him a full-stack view from legacy stacks to modern event-driven systems.
