Alex is fantastic to work with, and he has an unique experience in databases, infrastructure, platform, security, and compliance domains. I admire his dedication, creativity, problem solving skills, the way he can read and motivate people. Proactive, ambitious, dedicated and broad-minded perfectionist, Alex makes the impossible possible on a daily basis. I've always felt Alex was one of the best team mates I've ever had the privilege of working with. Absolutely recommend to anyone and would love to work again with in the future!
