Summary
Alexander Lukens is an engineering manager and tech lead with eight years of experience building data-driven web products and leading cross-functional teams from startup to scale. He has hands-on expertise in AWS, Django/Python, React, Postgres, Docker and CI pipelines, and has architected microservices and large infrastructure/database migrations for customer-facing analytics platforms. At NATIVE he combined product leadership with NLP/ML pipelines and scalable scraping to turn noisy consumer sentiment into actionable insights, and today leads engineering at InvestiFi.
