Recommendations
I wanted to take a moment to share some thoughts on Alex’s performance. It’s been truly impressive to see the impact of his work. His software architecture skills are not just good, they’re vital for our product development. As the System Architect of the Big Data, Runtime and AI Platform on Azure for Mercedes-Benz I can delegate very complex tasks regarding our future code base architecture to him. As a Python Software Architect, he was vital in our future strategy regarding Microservice Architecture in our Platform. He’s got the ability to keep the whole picture in view while zeroing in on current issues. His focus is not only technical however.
It’s clear that Alex doesn’t just focus on his own tasks; he’s always looking out for the team, making sure all supported, and that the knowledge and insights are spread inside the team and not just in his own head. That kind of team-first attitude is what makes working here so great.
We are very sorry for Alex to leave our Product group but whish him all the best on his next projects and are very confident that he will raise the bar in every team he joins.
