Hi, I'm Michalis.
I'm the co-founder and CEO of Hacker Bob, building AI agents that find and verify security vulnerabilities. My research has been credited by projects including OpenSSH and Samba.
Alongside security research, I've built AI safety tools and experimented with teams of agents at hackathons. Much of my work involves putting these systems to use and understanding where they succeed and where they fail.
I also co-founded Vibe Coding Nights, a community where people build software with AI and teach each other what works. I run workshops and build alongside the people who show up. Some of my closest collaborators are people I met by building things together.
How I got here
One flight to San Francisco changed everything. I was always shy — the kid who froze up in front of a classroom. SF was the first place I felt understood, surrounded by people who wanted to build wild things and push technology to its limit. Within a year, I went from hiding in the back of the room to standing in front of it.
The rest of it
Travel, night markets, rooftops, and Cristal — the person who makes everything else make sense. There's a gallery of the life we're building and the story of how we got here.
