Welcome,

My name is Petko Bozhinov.
I'm a software developer, currently working as a full-stack web developer. I am also pursuing a Master in Business at FHWien der WKW. I'm interested in macroeconomics and also love to ski. I would be happy if you want to read more about me, my interests and some of my thoughts into the blog section and eventually get in touch with me.
Sincerely yours,
Petko

Scaling to you

I realize that every single human being has a different perspective about the so called 'important things'. And every single different perspective requires a different approach.

Differencing

People say that every problem has a solution. I'd add that the solution of every problem is unique, doesn't matter if it comes to technology or psychology.

I'm currently working at Zühlke as a software development consultant. I work on many different projects and love to get involved in different things. Along the work, I'm also studying at the Executive Management master programme at the FHWien der WKW.
Before that, I used to work at Infragistics as a software developer. We were creating a design-to-code scaffolder and reusable web components using Angular.
I got my Informatics BSc from the German language faculty of TU-Sofia in 2020. Before that, I was a student in ELSYS, where I graduated from the software development classes.
I have a wide spectrum of interests - from software development to international relations. For that reason, I feel I need to confess that I have failed with a couple of startups. Even though, I think my next one is going to be a huge success 😉
I used to be a teacher. That's a thing that I'd certainly recommend you to do if you have this opportunity.
My mother tongue is Bulgarian. I'm currently located in Vienna. I am equally fluent in English and German and a beginner in Russian.
When it comes to software engineering skills, I think that the chart below and my resume describe my abilities better.

  • I had the honor to create the frontend of the website of a Viennese organization, fostering human relations and circular economy.

  • I had the chance to develop the personal portfolio for this very talented girl.

  • I started a new job at Zuhlke as a senior software developer.

  • I got accepted and started studying at the University of Applied Sciences in Vienna.

  • Me and a friend of mine founded a shared mobility startup in Sofia, Bulgaria.
    The startup uses a 100% EV fleet on a rent-per-minute basis.

  • I had the chance to create and deploy the website of this Bulgarian kindergarten.

  • I gave a talk at the 2022 CodeMonsters conference. The topic was How to scaffold a production-ready Angular app in less than 50 minutes.

  • Me and a colleague of mine held a workshop at the 2021 edition of EnterpriseNG. We were showing how to rapidly scaffold a production-ready Angular app.

  • I gave a talk at the ISTA Conference about design systems and reusable web components. It was a co-talk with a guy from SAP, all on behalf of Infragistics and SAP.

  • With all the ups and downs, 2020 brought me much joy as well. I graduated. My thesis was a business application to help businessowners have a better track on their expenses. I used the components that we create at Infragistics. The app was written in Angular and ASP.NET Core 3.1.

  • I joined a team that creates components for IgniteUI for Angular. I also assisted in the creation of a design systems tool to scaffold code out of Sketch, XD & Figma.

  • We were creating an ERP software for German customers, using AngularJS and PHP's Laravel.

  • I was also offerred to be a teacher in the school I graduated. I'm even currently teaching 11th graders on Web design principles and HTML and CSS basics for the ones who have never had contact with them.

  • I was offerred to be a tutor in the discipline Introduction to Programming Basics. The laboratory exercices aimed to teach the students the programming language C, as well as to inspire them to continue their studies

  • A website I created for one of the first importers of the exotic coffee from Indonesian civet. I used Laravel for the development of that website and Social attendance was included into the pack, but the company didn't lasted long so it's all down by now

  • Me and a friend of mine decided to make a gift to one of the best nightlife places in Sofia but sadly, they refused it. We bought the domain mixtape5.club for the present to be complete but after the refusal, we moved the finished website into archive and it's no longer available. It was written on PHP's Laravel.

  • Used to be creating products using PHP and Laravel.

  • Version that's currently on air. It was released in the summer of 2016 and has practically no backend. The only form uses AJAX to fulfill its task.

  • I was a marketing research trainee. We were given a topic to research and at the end, we were supposed to say whether an investment into the specific field is worth or not.

  • I wanted this domain so bad and the first time I saw it free I decided to buy it. That's what was live before the current version.

  • I was primarily reading about network, protocols, requests etc. After this internship, I implemented the BitTorrent protocol as a course work to defense my diploma from TUES.

  • One of the very, very few websites which I created and are currently running. It's a Wordpress-based solution.

  • This website had a custom developed CMS because at that time I beleived it would be easier to develop one instead of integrating WordPress but you know, one should always evolve:) What's sad is that this website was almost never on air.

  • The design idea continues the same tendency but sadly, as the website was moved in archive, I broke some links so the menu doesn't work anymore:(

  • I won a free .eu domain which I decided to turn into a custom URL-shortener. The code could be seen into my Github account

  • One of the versions I like the most. The idea was to enhance the currently working version without any major UX changes. I was inspired for this concept by the Porsche's cars. They evolve through years but are always somehow simillar.

  • A conceptual design which actually never turned into a working version but I still keep it because in my opinion, it's the one of the most aesthetical looks that 4bitt has ever got

  • The versioning doesn't actually matter, but I'm saying it's v2.0 because the website experienced a complete redesign since I was tired of the old one.

  • That's how the initial version of the first product of mine looked like:) 4bitt is the brand under which I was creating websites.

  • A fan site of GTA San Andreas which I made when I was 10 and was built over a template but is the project that hooked me into web development. And is the most popular website I've ever created 🥲.
