Alex Hernandez
AI Engineer & Technical Leader
Orange County, CA
Born in Houston, Texas and currently based in Orange County, California, I'm an AI engineer who has developed AI systems for some of the largest companies in the world.
AI & Systems Engineering
Since starting my tech career in 2019, I've focused on one thing: providing businesses with exceptional value and real results. I developed automation to save businesses $100k+ each month in cloud spend, I've built generative AI workflows that bring in $3 million+ in new business, and I've mentored engineers who went on to do great work at Fortune 500 companies. Everything I do is intended bring undeniable value.
Deep Technical Expertise, Backed by Decisive Leadership
I went from a $13-an-hour IT support tech to a Senior Systems Engineer at a world-class consulting firm by pairing hands-on engineering with the judgment to make the right call under pressure.
- Architect and ship production AI systems, cloud infrastructure, and automation that perform reliably at enterprise scale.
- Own high-stakes technical decisions end to end, weighing trade-offs across cost, risk, and performance to choose the path that delivers.
- Translate complex systems into clear direction for engineering teams and C-level stakeholders alike.
