Hi, I’m Norbert Jakubczak — aka Norbix 👋

Norbert Jakubczak - Norbix
Building scalable systems where engineering meets real-world delivery. 🚀

Software Engineer | Technology Partner | Distributed Systems (Go, Python, TypeScript) | AWS & K8s

I help companies design and build scalable distributed systems, Internal Developer Platforms (IDP), and cloud-native SaaS solutions.

I work hands-on across the stack — from backend services in Go & Python, through cloud infrastructure (AWS, Kubernetes), to developer tooling and system design.

My focus is simple:
👉 build systems that are reliable, scalable, and actually deliver value in production

Before stepping fully into tech, I was a professional basketball player — a path that taught me discipline, team dynamics, and what it means to perform under pressure. That mindset still drives how I build software today.

“Never say never, because limits, like fears, are often just an illusion.”

🚀 What I Do

I help teams:

  • Design and implement distributed systems that scale under real load
  • Build Internal Developer Platforms (IDP) to improve developer velocity
  • Architect and deliver SaaS microservices in cloud-native environments
  • Improve system resilience, observability, and uptime
  • Ship production-ready solutions — not just prototypes

🛠️ Core Expertise

  • Go · Python · TypeScript → production-grade backend & services
  • Distributed Systems & Microservices
  • AWS & Kubernetes (K8s)
  • API design (REST, gRPC)
  • Event-driven architecture (Kafka / messaging systems)
  • DevEx & platform engineering
  • CI/CD, DevSecOps, and production operations

✍️ About This Blog

This blog is my engineering logbook — where I document real-world problems, solutions, and lessons learned.

👉 Real systems, real code, real trade-offs

You’ll find:

  • Go & Python patterns
  • API and system design
  • performance & optimization
  • DevEx and platform engineering
  • CI/CD and infrastructure automation

Real code. Real lessons. Honest write-ups.

🧱 How This Blog Is Built

Norbert Jakubczak - Norbix
Engineering norbix.dev — Behind the Scenes.

The norbix.dev blog is built with the same engineering discipline I apply to software projects — modular, automated, and reproducible.

  • Static site generator: Hugo + PaperMod theme
  • Content: Markdown files version-controlled in Git
  • Automation: Built and deployed automatically via GitHub Actions
  • Infrastructure: Served via GitHub Pages, with continuous deployment managed by GitHub Actions.
  • Versioning: Each article is treated like a code change — reviewed, versioned, and deployed continuously

💡 This blog isn’t just written about engineering — it’s engineered itself.
