About Alex Savarese

Cloud Engineer @ Fides | Serverless & DevOps | AWS | Terraform | Kubernetes | GenAI with Bedrock

Intro

I am a Software Engineer and DevOps Engineer working in a Business Unit fully deployed on AWS.

My main focus is designing and developing serverless solutions, leveraging the AWS ecosystem to build both frontend and backend components with a strong emphasis on code quality and clean design patterns.

I am deeply passionate about Infrastructure as Code, especially Terraform, and about running and orchestrating containerized workloads with Kubernetes. This combination enables me to deliver scalable, resilient, and modern cloud architectures.

More recently, I have developed a strong interest in Generative AI, with a particular focus on AWS Bedrock and its ability to bring enterprise-ready generative models into real-world applications in a secure and scalable way.

What I Do

  • AWS: Lambda, AppSync, API Gateway, DynamoDB, Aurora Serverless, RDS, S3, CloudFront, Fargate, Step Functions, Cognito, EventBridge, Kinesis, and more.
  • Infrastructure as Code & DevOps: Terraform, Serverless Framework, SAM, CDK, CloudFormation, GitHub Actions.
  • Containerization & Orchestration: Docker, Kubernetes, Fargate.
  • Frontend & Backend Development: TypeScript, JavaScript, ReactJS, GraphQL, REST APIs.
  • Monitoring & Security: CloudWatch, X-Ray, Lumigo, WAF, KMS, Secrets Manager, SSM.
  • Generative AI: integrating models through AWS Bedrock and building AI-driven applications for developers and enterprises.

Experience & Projects

I have contributed to projects ranging from cloud-native development and infrastructure automation to system integration and generative AI adoption. My work often involves designing and implementing solutions on AWS, combining serverless architectures with Infrastructure as Code using Terraform and container orchestration with Kubernetes.

By working closely with cross-functional teams, I ensure that every project delivers value through innovation while remaining scalable, reliable, and secure.
My focus is on bridging software engineering, DevOps practices, and AI-driven capabilities, enabling solutions that are not only technically sound but also aligned with business goals and ready for the future.
