👤
SeniorAlex Baidan is a senior engineering manager and hands-on technologist with over 20 years in software development and 11 years of focused industry experience, currently building the Veeam Data Cloud SRE organization in Prague. He blends startup grit—co-founding products and serving as CTO at Spaceti—with enterprise impact at Microsoft, where he redesigned services for millions of users and introduced new search-driven features using his Elastic Certified Engineer expertise. Alex is fluent across Go, Ruby, distributed systems, event-driven architectures, and observability, and has a track record of transforming monoliths into scalable, cost-effective platforms and shipping high-load search and analytics solutions. Comfortable in both people leadership and deep code-level work, he emphasizes backlog hygiene, code reviews, and technical debt reduction to raise team productivity. Unusually, his background spans smart-building PLC/Crestron work and sales, giving him a pragmatic product-minded perspective on hardware-software integrations and go-to-market realities.
