About Alex Elman

I am a Site Reliability Engineer with 13 years of experience. My tenure at Indeed during its hyper-growth phases afforded me varied experience from late stage startup to large enterprise and everything in between. Even as a leader, I carry a pager. At the forefront of bringing Resilience Engineering to software, my aim is to help organizations learn from incidents to rapidly build expertise in the engineers who are coping with increasing complexity. Between 2021 and 2024 my teams have performed in-depth analyses of over 30 incidents and used the themes to drive outcomes.
