Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAlexander Charykov is a Senior Engineer based in Utrecht with over 12 years of hands-on experience building and automating infrastructure and backend systems across Python, DevOps, and cloud platforms. He has led teams and projects from on-prem CI/CD migrations to customer-facing Kubernetes platforms, consistently pushing Infrastructure-as-Code, automation, and recovery-first practices. At companies like Flow Traders, Mirantis and FareHarbor he combined coding (Python/Java) with platform ownership—running and migrating CI tooling, managing AWS tests, and operating enterprise-grade build systems. Colleagues know him as a pragmatic mentor who emphasizes documentation, backups and repeatable deployments while also doing deep root-cause analysis of failures. He’s comfortable across the stack—Puppet/Ansible, OpenStack/Kubernetes, Jenkins/Bamboo—and has presented platform work to customers and communities. Despite a systems-heavy background, he still identifies as a Python developer and enjoys turning operational challenges into reusable software.
