Top SchoolAlex Dunn is a Staff DevOps Engineer with 12 years’ experience building scalable, automated infrastructure for eCommerce and fintech firms from Levi's to SoFi.

Alex combines deep systems knowledge (Ruby, Java, C, Go) with production-grade experience across databases, messaging, logging and monitoring stacks, and has led microservices and GCP containerization efforts at Newgistics. He mentors junior engineers and consistently focuses on reusable tooling and idempotent automation to accelerate delivery while preserving reliability.
