Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAlex Palcuie is a seasoned site reliability engineer with 14 years of experience building and operating large-scale cloud infrastructure, currently focused on keeping Anthropic’s Claude reliable at inference scale. He has deep Google Cloud expertise from roles spanning individual contributor SRE work to engineering management, where he led capacity provisioning for GPU clusters and contributed to major incident response across Google. Alex has a track record of reducing RTO/RPO for the GCE control plane, co-authoring cross-team debugging tools used by 30+ teams, and receiving recognition for saving Black Friday traffic. Prior to Google he applied SRE and data-engineering skills at Palantir, Hootsuite/uberVU and in government open-data projects, blending backend, observability and incident tooling. Based in London and originally trained at the University of Bucharest, he brings a pragmatic mix of hands-on debugging, automation, and crisis leadership. A less obvious strength is his pattern of moving between IC and manager roles to tackle the hardest technical reliability problems directly.
