Senior🎓
Top SchoolDavid Syzdek is a systems engineer with 17 years of hands-on experience designing, deploying, and maintaining server infrastructure for ISPs and embedded/mobile software projects from Anchorage, Alaska. As lead Systems Engineer II at Alaska Communications, he runs a diverse fleet of Slackware, Alpine, and CentOS/RHEL servers across Xen hypervisors and builds middleware and support tools to streamline operations. His background spans low-level C (POSIX) and Objective-C (UIKit/AppKit) development, system porting across Linux, FreeBSD, macOS and iOS, and day-to-day LDAP, DNS, mail, web and FTP administration. He combines operator discipline with software craftsmanship—comfortable both tuning networks and shipping end-user utilities for engineers and support staff. Colleagues rely on him for pragmatic solutions in resource-constrained environments, and his long tenure in Alaska gives him uncommon experience running critical infrastructure in remote, high-availability contexts.
