Summary
Alexander Safatli is a versatile computer scientist with 14 years of software engineering experience, blending academic rigor from Dalhousie (MSc, PhD studies) with production work at Amazon, BeyondTrust, and startups. He designs and architects robust systems across languages and stacks—Go, Java, Ruby on Rails, Flutter, and more—while operating on-call for high-demand payment services and building cybersecurity server software. Comfortable in both research and applied engineering, he has a long history of teaching and research assistance in computational and structural bioinformatics, bringing analytical depth to practical software problems. Known for a habit of “building and breaking” complex systems, he pairs a voracious appetite for new architectures with hands-on delivery. Based in Halifax, he balances technical life with an academic curiosity and a penchant for tabletop gaming, an unexpected source of strategic thinking that informs his system design.
