Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAdrián Alonso is a Product Owner and engineering leader with nine years of experience building and shipping database-backed systems and cloud-native tooling from the Greater Madrid area. He blends hands-on Java and full-stack development—contributing to open-source projects like ToroDB (improving MongoDB-to‑SQL analytics) and StackGres (PostgreSQL on Kubernetes)—with product ownership and team management. At OnGres he moved from developer to engineering manager, leading product and professional services teams and implementing Agile practices, and more recently translated product strategy into delivery as a Technical Product Owner at Devo before joining Zetes. His background in both low-level database integration and UI/helm work gives him a rare ability to bridge infrastructure, developer experience and product priorities. An MBA complements his technical masters degrees, equipping him to align business goals with pragmatic engineering trade-offs. Notably, his open-source contributions include compatibility and reliability enhancements (older MongoDB support, SSL, and backup/restore fixes) that improve real-world deployments.
