Summary
Alex Yang is a Senior Software Developer based in Stockholm with eight years of experience building full-stack systems and a strong focus on resilient back-end architecture. Currently at SAS, he helps design distributed systems that prioritize security and smooth customer experiences, drawing on prior platform and architecture work at Futurice for major clients like Nokia and Stora Enso. His background in media art and archive research gives him a rare blend of technical rigour and attention to information preservation and user-facing narrative. Comfortable across Python, Go, JavaScript, Docker and Postgres, he pairs practical engineering with occasional writing and tutorial work for technical learners. Though his GitHub reads playful — “my favourite site is http.cat” and public repos haven’t seen recent updates — he favors thoughtful, production-ready solutions over flashy open-source volume. Colleagues describe him as a pragmatic collaborator who brings design-minded problem solving to complex backend challenges.
