Alex Hinson

Airship Alumni

Note: We’re proud to report that Alex is now a front-end engineer at Amazon Web Services (AWS)!! His contributions (and backlinks) are astounding, and we’re so thankful to have had him on the crew for nearly 3 years. 

As a Builder and self-proclaimed lifelong learner at Airship, I have the fortunate opportunity to work on vastly different products for our clients and contemplate new ways to solve problems. Each day brings a new challenge, and I am so thankful to be a part of the encouraging team here where we all strive to create a positive atmosphere for each other and clients alike.

Prior to Airship I worked as an IT Manager at Alabama Insurance Agency where I managed computer-related issues as well as created an internal data management application for all of their locations across the Southeast. At the same time, I also taught percussion at various high schools and colleges around Birmingham. On top of all that, I also maintained a few freelance web development/design projects. Needless to say, having only one job now at a place like Airship is a blessing!

My wife Katie and I live in downtown Birmingham and we love seeing the exciting things going on around us. We also love music (250+ concerts together), working out at IronTribe, eating lots of food (sorry IronTribe), and traveling as much as possible.
