Jack of all trades master of None. Alexandru Dejanu is a Senior Systems Engineer with 8 years of experience in various domains such as Automotive, Telecom, Banking, and Healthcare. Currently, he works as an SRE at Systematic, part of the Customer Operations team, helping both development and operation teams to have full visibility of the complete application lifecycle.

Todd Palino is a Senior Staff Engineer in Site Reliability at LinkedIn on the Capacity Engineering team, where his team is creating a framework for application capacity measurement, analysis, and change intelligence. Prior to that, he was responsible for architecture, day-to-day operations, and tools development for one of the largest Apache Kafka deployments. In his spare time, Todd is the developer of the open-source project Burrow, a Kafka consumer monitoring tool, and is the co-author of Kafka: The Definitive Guide, now available from O'Reilly Media. Out of the office, you can find Todd at conferences like SREcon and LISA, sharing his experience from years in SRE technical leadership, and at Kafka Summit or ApacheCon talking about how to feed and water Kafka infrastructures. Or maybe out on the trails, training for the next marathon.
