Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAlexander Mancevice is a Senior Infrastructure Engineer with 11 years of experience building serverless, microservices, and infrastructure-as-code solutions across AWS and Google Cloud. He blends hands-on software development in Ruby, Python, JavaScript and Go with pragmatic DevOps practices to migrate monoliths into resilient, event-driven systems and improve CI/CD and observability. At CargoMetrics he designed core trading system components and led transitions from traditional schedules to cloud-native, fault-tolerant processes, and now continues that work at Kickstarter. An active open-source contributor, he has improved the popular go-task task runner with path handling, color overrides, and CI-friendly flags, showing attention to developer ergonomics. Based in Poughkeepsie, NY, he favors practical design patterns and incremental hardening that reduce alarm noise while increasing system reliability.
