Alexander Scheel is a Staff Backend Engineer - Secrets Management at GitLab. Colleagues describe him as "Alex helped me with one of my most challenging customers from a cryptographic perspective, it was always a pleasure to pull Alex into these conversations due to Alex’s expert knowledge and his ability to engage at an engineer-to-engineer level. I wish Alex every (well deserved) success in his future role." and "Alex is one of the brightest persons I've met. During the 6 months we worked together, not only he led the overhaul of one of the main projects of the team, but he also positively impacted all the other projects. He enthusiastically try to enhance/optimize/make better every single task he is involved with. At the same time he is open to suggestions to his work, always listening carefully - and actively asking for feedback - and accepting when they are appropriated, or providing reasoned arguments against. Additionally, Alex is skilled, learns fast and is more than willing to share what he learned with others. I learned a lot with him on just 6 months. I wholeheartedly recommend him to whichever task he applies. Recruiters, this is your guy, don't waste your time with lengthy processes. Just hire him."
