Hi! I'm a software engineer at Amazon Web Services. I work on the data plane for EBS snapshots, supporting exabyte-scale snapshot metering, garbage collection, durability checks, metadata management, snapshots in Outposts and Local Zones, and Recycle Bin. Previously, I worked on ML infrastructure at Capital One. I studied computer science at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. I live in Seattle.
I'm always looking to work on more difficult problems. I'm interested in critical customer-facing infrastructure, particularly when applied to high-scale ML systems. To reach me, you can send an email to alexdeancontact at pm dot me.
