Aleksei Semiglazov is a Senior Systems Engineer with 11 years of experience building and operating high-throughput, fault-tolerant platforms at scale, currently focused on Workers AI and inference autoscaling at Cloudflare. He combines deep systems and SRE expertise—spanning bare-metal tuning, Kubernetes-native schedulers, ClickHouse cluster orchestration, and distributed observability—with hands-on development in Rust, Go, and platform automation. Aleksei has driven cross-team projects like a distributed edge Images API, a Rust background-task system adopted company-wide, and autoscaling pipelines that cut latency and resource waste. An active contributor to the Thanos project, he has improved public-network readiness, compaction stability, and memory optimizations for long-term Prometheus storage. Fluent in English and experienced across multi-datacenter operations, he pairs pragmatic engineering with a knack for reducing operational risk through tooling and clear incident practices.
