About

Hello,
My name is Marian Marinov. I was born in Dobrich, Bulgaria and I’m currently living in Montreal, Canada

I’m a system administrator with long experience in the field. I started working as such in the summer of 1996.

I was a part time lecturer at Sofia University and Software University, where I lead the Network Security and Linux System Administration courses.
At the moment I’m Director of Engineering at Web Hosting Canada.

In the past occupations include:

  • Founder and CEO of 1H Ltd.
  • Co-founder and CTO of Kyup Ltd.
  • Head System Architect of SiteGround Ltd.
  • Board member of Open Projects Foundation
  • Member of Electronic Frontier Foundation Bulgaria
  • Coordinator of the OpenFest conferences
  • Coordinator of BG Perl Workshops
  • Coordinator of the LUG-BG annual meetings

I like to watch movies (fantasy, comedy, action) and listen to all kinds of music.

I’m a really crazy person :) I like to travel a lot and be with friends. My latest crazy addiction is driving Maznio(my Pink Nissan Patrol) Offroading in the Bulgarian mountains.
