Summary
Alicja Laszuk is a Senior Site Reliability Engineer with 11 years of experience specializing in stateful infrastructure and datastores across production systems. She has led reliability, incident response, and datastore operations (MongoDB, PostgreSQL) at companies like Okta and now Greenhouse Software, pairing deep hands-on engineering with infrastructure-as-code (AWS, Terraform). Her background includes Kubernetes, developer tooling, and mentoring, and she brings a data-driven perspective from a master’s in Quantitative Methods and prior analytics work at Poland’s Ministry of Health. An active contributor to open-source projects, Alicja has practical Python and full‑stack experience from her Zulip GCI work, reflecting an interest in improving developer workflows and documentation. Colleagues know her for reliably untangling complex stateful systems and for a knack for turning messy operational problems into repeatable tooling. She’s based in Vancouver and, as her GitHub quip promises, tends to deliver surprising, attention-grabbing solutions.
