Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolTony Alaniz is a Senior Developer Advocate and Technical Program Lead with 11 years of experience building platform adoption and developer enablement at scale, most recently founding and growing Uber’s developer advocacy function from 0 to 7+ people. He combines hands-on engineering (Python, REST APIs, Kubernetes, AWS/GCP) with program leadership—delivering measurable outcomes like 100% adoption of a generative AI platform, halving onboarding time, and cutting time-to-first-production from 1.5 days to two hours across 500+ microservice launches. Tony has deep TPM experience across CI/CD rollouts, Kubernetes migrations, and global curriculum design, and he shepherds cross-functional launches through KPI-driven governance. Less obvious: he pairs operational rigor (decommissioning datacenters, cloud migrations) with developer-facing work like automating feedback triage and generating docs via Python for RAG-enabled AI workflows. Based in Los Angeles, he’s seeking Senior/Staff TPM or platform enablement roles at mid-size companies where platform work drives product impact.
