Meet CEO Tobie

A man of very few words, except on the subject of databases

With 15 years experience as a full-stack software engineer, Tobie has developed and consulted on numerous cloud-based architectures and platforms - with a focus on distributed databases and highly-available architectures. He gained a distinction in a Software Engineering MSc from the University of Oxford, where his thesis was focused on highly-performant key-value data stores for use within graph databases - an idea which led to the decision to build SurrealDB. Since finishing the Masters, Tobie has built a number of software-as-a-service products centered around, and powered by SurrealDB.
