Expert Solutions Engineer at Deutsche Telekom IT Solutions HU
Szeged, Hungary
Summary
🤩
RockstarSzabolcs Dombi is an Expert Solutions Engineer and platform-focused Site Reliability Engineer with 11 years of experience building and operating cloud-native Kubernetes platforms across telco and enterprise environments. He combines hands-on platform R&D and SRE practice—most recently maintaining Crossplane providers and tooling at Deutsche Telekom after a Staff SRE role at Cloudera—with deep operational expertise in managed Kubernetes and public cloud. His open-source contributions span low-level, performance-sensitive projects like Bullet Physics and ModernGL, showing rare fluency in numerical C/C++ and graphics APIs alongside cloud automation. Szabolcs is comfortable bridging system-level code and platform automation, having moved between kernel-adjacent tasks, CI/CD tooling and large-scale cluster operations. Based in Szeged, Hungary, he brings a pragmatic, detail-oriented approach to reliability and developer experience, and—true to his GitHub bio—still enjoys “travelling through C space” by diving into low-level code.

Bullet Physics SDK: real-time collision detection and multi-physics simulation for VR, games, visual effects, robotics, machine learning etc.
Role in this project:Backend Developer
Backend DeveloperContributions:5 commits, 3 PRs, 27 comments in 5 years 1 month
Contributions summary:Szabolcs primarily focused on refactoring and updating the Bullet Physics SDK code base. Their contributions involved converting data types, specifically `float` to `btScalar`, and replacing functions like `sinf` and `acosf` with their Bullet equivalents. They also fixed type conversion warnings and addressed issues with the `btMinkowskiSumShape`, suggesting a focus on code quality and compatibility within the physics engine. These changes indicate a strong understanding of the underlying numerical computations and data structures within the library.
