Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAlex Szabó is a senior software engineer based in Vienna with over a decade of experience building and optimizing full-stack web applications, from Angular frontends to Django backends and AWS infrastructure. He has repeatedly reduced system latency and pipeline durations, once cutting overall response time by roughly 40% and saving over eight seconds on some endpoints, while also tackling long-standing tech debt across frontend, backend, database, and search layers. Alex blends hands-on implementation (CI/CD, Terraform, Docker, observability) with technical leadership and mentoring, having led architecture efforts and improved processes to reduce defects and flaky tests. He brings security and compliance experience (ISO-27001, penetration testing) alongside practical DevOps work, and has a knack for documenting solutions that make onboarding and maintenance smoother. Outside of strict project work he keeps a playful public-facing presence (see his GitHub bio) that hints at a pragmatic, human-centered approach to engineering.
