Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAxel Velazquez is a Senior Software Engineer with over a decade of experience building and operating infrastructure for some of the world’s largest platforms, including AWS Fargate (founding team), CloudFront, Dropbox, and Apple’s exabyte-scale object storage. He specializes in early-stage, high-leverage work—fleet management at multi-million VM scale, offline processing, capacity systems—and translating that foundational engineering into globally available product services. At Dropbox he led a team that rearchitected a high-throughput campaign platform to microservices, enabling experimentation and self-serve governance for hundreds of millions of users; at AWS he helped design the control plane that made serverless containers practical. He combines deep systems and distributed-systems expertise with product-minded leadership, and is a co-inventor on two US patents in CDN load balancing and serverless fleet management. Based in Seattle, he is comfortable shipping both low-level infrastructure and user-facing platform features, often tackling the “boring” hard problems that unlock scale.
