Alain Schlesser

As Principal architect, I work on solving the big-picture issues and coming up with architectural solutions that scale.

I have a diverse professional background that spans enterprise WordPress agencies, government IT departments, operating system design and game development.

Amongst others, I am the maintainer of WP-CLI, the command-line interface for WordPress and a Google Developers Expert in Web Technologies.

I love speaking at conferences and doing educational work, so you might run into me at one of the larger WordCamps or other industry events. If so, don’t hesitate to say hi, I’m always happy to meet new people!
