About
I'm Strahil Peykov, a backend software engineer based in Amsterdam. I grew up in Burgas, Bulgaria, moved to Eindhoven in 2021, and completed a BSc in Computer Science & Engineering at TU Eindhoven in 2025. I now work on last-mile delivery systems at Picnic.
Most of my work has involved software tied to real operations: logistics, internal business processes, and data that other people depend on. I like understanding what people actually need from a system, not just what the ticket says.
I really like games, music, philosophy, and politics, so they inevitably bleed into the things I do.
