Alexandru-Emil Lupu is a CTO and Ruby on Rails developer at 2Performant.com. Alex has about 10 years of experience in the web development industry, during which time he learned a lot of skills from e-commerce platforms implementation and presentation sites, to online games code writing. He is one of the developers who are constantly learning new programming languages and he has no problem understanding Ruby, PHP, Python, JavaScript, and Java code.
Alex is very passionate about programming and computer science; when he was a teenager, he did not have his own computer or an Internet connection (hard to believe, but true). He would go to an Internet cafe to read about his programming problems and would then struggle to implement them at home. He fondly remembers those days and hopes he's the same guy from 10 years ago with much more experience. For him, passion is the word that describes the challenge he faced while learning. Trust me, it is not easy to be a youngster, but also willing to learn new stuff. Coming home at 2-3 A.M, determined to install Linux just to learn about it, is not as easy as it sounds. I had a Pentium I at 133 MHz in the Pentium IV at 1800 MHz era!
He is constantly learning and likes to stay close to well-trained and passionate people who better motivate him every day! This is the reason he joined the 2Performant (2Parale) team, to face a challenge. He likes teams that work intelligently and are energetic.
Proof of his perseverance is that he is a Certified Scrum Master and is passionate about Agile development. His resume also includes four years at eRepublik.com, an online game, where he was responsible for a long list of tasks including feature development, performance optimization, but also was the tech lead on an internal project. He learned the necessarily skills to fulfill his day-to-day tasks at 2Performant.com the hard way.
In the little spare time he has developed small personal projects or reads technical or project management books or articles. When relaxing, he enjoys watching thriller movies and playing shooter or strategy games.
He doesn't talk too much, but is willing to teach others programming. If you meet him at a cafe prepare to be entertained, as he likes to tell a lot of contextual jokes.
