Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAlexander Heinrich is an Application Security Engineer based in Berlin with 11 years of software experience, blending a web-development origin with a growing focus on systems- and application-level security. At Veeam he builds security tooling and automation around vulnerability management, API security, and secure CI/CD, building on research work that prototyped hypervisor-based network encryption during a master's thesis. He brings hands-on full-stack experience from years of client-facing web projects and WCAG-focused accessibility work, which informs a pragmatic, user-aware approach to secure designs. Comfortable communicating across teams, he pairs developer empathy with rigorous security evaluation—often comparing solution performance and threat models rather than assuming defaults. Currently completing a Master of Science in Computer Science in Berlin, he combines academic rigor with production-grade engineering.
