Alexander Tikhonov is a Senior Infrastructure Architect with 25+ years of experience designing automated test and CI systems for Linux, Android, iOS and Windows across distributed environments. He has deep low-level testing background from Solaris system-call testing to Linux kernel performance analysis and hardware/BIOS validation on Intel platforms, and he brings that systems-level rigor to cloud-native CI/CD and DevOps work. At Tarantool he combines backend and infrastructure skills, improving build systems, stabilizing test suites and integrating deployment pipelines with S3 and GCE. Comfortable with Perl, Shell, C, Python and Jenkins pipelines, he also builds visualization and analysis tooling (SQL, PHP, Excel) to turn test data into actionable insights. A longtime contributor to large-scale projects, he is equally at home debugging flaky tests as architecting company-wide cloud infrastructures.
