Alex Usbergo is a Staff Software Engineer and Technical Lead based in Stockholm with 15 years of experience building mobile, video processing and XR systems at scale, currently leading mobile video/XR engineering at Google.

His background includes senior iOS engineering and scrum leadership at Skype and end-to-end systems and technical lead roles in consumer and enterprise products, reflecting a rare blend of hands-on coding and org-scaling leadership. Alex holds a summa cum laude BS in Computer Science and an MSc in Software Engineering, and is known for pragmatic component design (see his Render UIKit-inspired framework) that balances platform constraints with developer ergonomics. Colleagues describe him as a technical steward who elevates teams through clear architecture, mentorship, and measurable delivery velocity.
