πŸ‘‹ Hey, I’m Simon Bombart

I’m a Go developer with 2 years of hands-on experience and a strong passion for building robust systems, learning new technologies, and turning complex ideas into elegant, working software.

🧱 I build with intention β€” clean code, fast systems, and observable behaviors.
🧠 Curious by nature, I’m always exploring new patterns and tooling to make systems more scalable, resilient, and maintainable.
πŸ’¬ I love collaborating, shipping fast, and learning from the trenches.

Whether I’m writing APIs, designing backend architecture, or optimizing geospatial queries, I care deeply about quality and clarity.


πŸ” What I’m into

🧠 Go Development
My go-to language: minimal, efficient, and delightful to work with

βš™οΈ Clean System Design
I enjoy crafting APIs that feel right, and systems that scale naturally

🌐 Microservices Architecture
Event-driven, message-based, and orchestrated patterns

πŸ“ Geospatial Tech (GIS)
Building services using PostGIS, gRPC, and spatial data

πŸ§ͺ Observability
OpenTelemetry, tracing, metrics & logs for everything I build

☸️ Kubernetes
Automating deployments, scaling services, managing environments declaratively

🧠 Fun fact: I’m also a fan of Lego and Star Wars β€” I think dev work is a lot like building modular, interlocking systems… just with more bugs πŸ˜„


πŸ› οΈ Projects I’m working on

πŸ” ZenAuth

A lightweight OAuth2 server written in Go – designed as a clean and simple alternative to Keycloak.

Features:

  • JWT and refresh tokens
  • PKCE support
  • Role & scope-based access
  • Admin UI & login screen theming
  • Microservice-ready and easy to self-host

Built for developers who want auth that works without the bloat.

🌍 RedoKube

A Kubernetes-native OpenAPI hub for discovering and visualizing API specs across your infrastructure.

Features:

  • Auto-discover OpenAPI endpoints in services
  • Visualize them in a unified dashboard
  • Integrate versioning & changelogs
  • Share docs across your team without extra tooling

Great for internal developer platforms or API-first environments.
