About

Hey, I'm Florian Bufler — a software engineer who likes building things and writing about them.

This site is where I share ideas and writeups, show off projects, and keep an online CV.

Stack & Expertise

As a Senior Software Engineer, my core focus lies in Go and Cloud-Native Architectures. I specialize in building resilient backend systems, designing scalable APIs, and orchestrating complex infrastructure across diverse environments—from on-premises solutions to global hyperscalers like GCP, AWS, Azure, and STACKIT.

• Cloud & Orchestration: Deep expertise in Kubernetes and GitOps (ArgoCD). I architected cloud orchestration layers from scratch, ensuring scalable, declarative deployments across multi-cloud environments.
• API & Backend: Lead Engineer for core API services using Go; experienced with Python and TypeScript for high-performance, type-safe microservices and full-stack versatility.
• Automotive & Embedded: Foundational background in low-level development using C and C++ for microprocessors/microcontrollers, specifically for Vehicle Control Units (VCUs) and Digital Twin industries.
• Platform Engineering & DevOps: Expert in Infrastructure as Code (IaC), Linux environments, and developer experience platforms like Backstage to bridge the gap between code and production.
• Data Systems: Extensive experience managing relational and NoSQL databases, including PostgreSQL, Redis, MongoDB, and InfluxDB for both real-time telemetry and persistent application state.

This site

I'm not a strong frontend engineer, nor a designer, but I try to keep things simple. And can at least built almost everything using the right documentation. That's how this site was built.

Built with Nuxt + @nuxt/content for markdown-powered content. Design inspired by the Tokyo Night color scheme and Coding aesthetics, as I enjoy these things way to much. Source on GitHub.
