Instructor Details

Alex Dan

Alex Dan — Cloud Architect, Developer & Instructor

With over a decade of hands-on software engineering experience, I've built my career at the intersection of cloud infrastructure, web development, and practical education.

My technical journey started in embedded automotive systems — developing Java-based navigation solutions for major car brands. From there, I moved into cloud engineering, building AWS-powered data pipelines for connected vehicles using Node.js, TypeScript, Lambda, DynamoDB, and a full suite of AWS services. I later worked as a Node.js developer at one of Eastern Europe's largest e-commerce platforms, before transitioning into independent cloud architecture consulting.

Today, as a freelance Cloud Architect, I design and implement scalable cloud solutions across industries — from automotive to enterprise — with a focus on infrastructure reliability, CI/CD automation, and modern serverless architectures.

Parallel to my engineering career, I've been teaching on Udemy since 2017, growing a community of over 300,000 students across 19 courses. My current focus is AI-assisted development — helping developers work smarter with tools like GitHub Copilot, VS Code AI extensions, and agentic coding workflows.

By Charles Thomas Lawson on 10/9/2025

Course matched my expectations. Was able to build and run all exercises. Liked it enough to purchase another course from same author .

By Boloor Raghavendra Rao on 8/21/2025

So far going ok. Looking for more detailed information or internals. I am used to aws-cdk ; but here it looks a little different.

By Nicola Chiara on 8/8/2025

One of the best courses in Udemy. Teacher does a fantastic job to make it simple and clear. His way to present the topics is very "developer"oriented. Highly recomended!

By Gerrit van Wingerden on 7/29/2025

Great course but could use a better (slightly more detailed) overview of how the whole deployment process comes together/what the sandbox is actually doing. I figured it out but it took some exploring on my own.

Amplifyの勉強にはなりました。 もっとちゃんとしたプロジェクトを作って欲しかったです。

By Luis Martinez on 3/17/2025

Very well designed course. Instructor does a great job building our knowledge from nothing. I am fluent with many AWS services but had never used Amplify. The instructor's optional sections are well laid out and does an amazing job showing how Amplify fits in and interacts with other AWS services. One of the best courses I have taken on Udemy!

By John Krock on 2/24/2025

Great overall course on Amplify. The AI parts were amazing, the first sections a little slow though. Recommend!
