Senior🎓
Top SchoolAleksei Slaikovskii is a pragmatic software build engineer with 12 years' experience optimizing CI/CD, test automation, and distributed build systems across companies like Apple, Meta, Oracle, and Red Hat. He excels at reducing operational overhead—e.g., cutting GitHub API usage dramatically for FreeIPA CI—and building containerized test runners and CI bots that make large-scale testing reliable. His background spans low-level systems and DevOps: from containerized PostgreSQL builds and Windows dependency wrangling to VM provisioning and RHV test frameworks. Based in London, Aleksei combines a taste for automation with hands-on contributions to integration test suites (ManageIQ) and a knack for finding performance and tooling bottlenecks others miss.
