I head Solutions Architecture at DigitalOcean. My team is the technical side of pre-sales: Kubernetes, GPUs, inference, and getting customers to production.

Portrait of Alexis Reyes

I was born in Havana, Cuba, and I'm married with a beautiful daughter. After 15 years in infrastructure, from network and systems engineering to solutions architecture, I lead DigitalOcean's pre-sales technical organization: the Solutions Architects who own the technical win from evaluation through deployment and expansion. The team runs deep on Kubernetes, cloud-native infrastructure and, increasingly, AI: GPU workloads, vLLM, inference architecture and token economics. We sit between what customers need, what the product can do and what the business is after, and get complex workloads live on DigitalOcean.
