Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAlexandru Ciobanu is an engineering manager and longtime coder with over 30 years of hands-on experience and nearly a decade leading teams, currently shaping security and developer workflows at Snyk from Cascais, Portugal. He has a strong track record of driving platform and data improvements—ranging from high-throughput ingestion and ClickHouse pipelines to migrating legacy data systems and cutting cloud costs through optimizations. Comfortable across the stack (Node.js, TypeScript, Go, Python, .NET) he blends deep systems knowledge with product-minded leadership, having improved observability, on-call practices, and delivery lead times in multiple organisations. An active open-source contributor, he has improved Terminal.Gui’s documentation, tests and Unicode handling, reflecting attention to both UX and low-level correctness. He pairs engineering rigor with practical management: mentoring teams, aligning cross-functional scopes, and turning PoCs into production features. Outside work he’s a Trekkie who appreciates an exquisite beer and the kind of keyboard-first curiosity that shows in long-term craftsmanship.
