Alexander Clark

Full-Stack Developer & Leader

About

I've been developing full-stack web applications professionally for well over a decade, but I've been programming for nearly twenty-five years.

When I say I'm a full stack developer, I don't just mean HTML, CSS, Javascript, Ruby, and SQL. I mean the whole stack. I've built servers and configured racks in datacenters. I've compiled hundreds of Linux kernels and configured dozens of different services. While most of the configuring I do these days is in Docker, I find a deep understanding of the underlying technology invaluable.

Whether I'm working as a manager or an individual contributor, I bring clear, proactive communication; a customer-focused perspective; comprehensive technical understanding; well-honed troubleshooting ability; and a deep love of building things.

Talks

From time to time I like to speak at local meetups. Here are some of the talks I've given.

Projects

Coding isn't just a job for me; it's also a hobby. While I enjoy many other activities, I do spend a certain amount of my free time working on various coding side projects. Sometimes it's to learn. Sometimes it's to teach others. And sometimes it's just to make something easier.
