ALEX GOSTEV

Tech Leader in the ares of Platform Engineering, Infrastructure, DevEx, Cloud, K8s, CI/CD, MLOps, AI/LLM

I work where people, technology, and innovation meet. I’ve helped teams ship complex systems and grow SaaS products from launch to scale. Started as a developer, got into Shape Up, and keep contributing to open source. Some time ago led a UX community and published in places like HackerNoon and IEEE.

I respect a good conversation, love languages and cultures, once joined an ethnographic expedition to learn more on the ground.
