Felix Wu is a seasoned software engineer based in British Columbia with over two decades of hands-on experience and nine years in senior engineering and solutions architect roles focused on web platforms, middleware, and high-availability systems. He’s skilled across the stack—from Java application servers (WebSphere, Tomcat, Geronimo) and Apache/httpd to Linux platforms (RHEL, Ubuntu, FreeBSD) and modern cloud tooling—having led platform migrations, build optimizations and automation that slashed release times dramatically. At Aiven he combined deep database and streaming expertise (Kafka, Cassandra, ClickHouse, Flink, Redis, PostgreSQL) with tooling and docs contributions, and at MEC he replatformed e-commerce systems into serverless and headless architectures. Equally comfortable troubleshooting production environments as building developer tooling, he has a track record of improving reliability, performance and developer velocity across enterprise and startup settings. Off hours he’s a self-described “computer geek” who runs and creates amateur art, reflecting a pragmatic engineer with creative curiosity.
