Senior🎓
Top SchoolAlex Kashirin is a software engineer and infrastructure specialist with a decade of experience building scalable distributed systems and backend platforms from Israel. He founded SWC-DB, a wide-column database project, and leads its engineering while continuously shipping infrastructure and storage solutions for cloud and on-prem environments. Alex combines deep systems work—databases, filesystems, kernel modules and network operations—with hands-on DevOps, MLOps and data engineering across SaaS, VMs and containers.
