Director – Mexico Operations
Alex Jones is a Computer Scientist and software engineer with a degree from the University of Michigan and a track record of building complex, high-performance applications across financial analytics, legal technology, and research. His career has spanned full-stack development, database architecture, and agile team leadership — most recently as a developer at BigHand, and previously as Lead Developer at EV Engine, where he designed and built a financial analytics platform from the ground up.
Alex brings technical rigor, business acumen, and conversational Spanish to the Mexico Operations role. Growing up watching his father build Wolverines Academy from a single scholar to a multi-country program, Alex understands the mission from the inside. As Director of Mexico Operations, he applies the same discipline he brings to software development — clear systems, clean processes, and measurable outcomes — to building what will become one of the Academy's largest scholar cohorts.
