Vetted DevOps Engineers in the Bay Area

Gregory Walton

Senior Software Engineer specializing in SRE, cloud automation, and reliability tooling

Sunnyvale, CA11y exp

“Technically oriented builder focused on taking ambiguous LLM/agentic workflow needs from scoped problem definition to iterative prototypes, with emphasis on edge cases and customer feedback. Has hands-on experience debugging RAG/agent systems, including resolving a real integration issue involving search query quoting differences between manual search and an API, and is comfortable fielding deep developer Q&A in demos.”

“Cloud/Kubernetes-focused engineer with production ownership in multi-account AWS environments (GE) and EKS-based platforms (Lumeus.ai). Strong in incident response and reliability—diagnosed IAM-driven serverless failures (SQS/Lambda) and Kubernetes deployment issues (CrashLoopBackOff, memory pressure) with rollbacks, policy fixes, and improved monitoring. Built secure Jenkins CI/CD and delivered infrastructure via CloudFormation and Terraform for serverless and EKS stacks.”

“Backend/platform engineer who has owned a real-time data ingestion/processing/reporting API built with FastAPI, Redis, and Celery, including performance tuning via query/index optimization, caching, and async workers. Strong Kubernetes + CI/CD + GitOps (ArgoCD) experience, plus hands-on monitoring/logging (Prometheus/Grafana/ELK) and a Kafka/Spark real-time streaming project from their master’s program.”

“Backend Python engineer who built core services for a telecom automation engine monitoring thousands of routers in real time and auto-generating support tickets. As the sole Intelygenz engineer on the project, they diagnosed a costly Terraform/GitLab CI/CD resource-leak issue in AWS and implemented a cleanup redesign that eliminated orphaned resources and reduced client cloud spend. Also shipped applied-AI ticket triage suggestions via API integration and built an end-to-end Gmail-to-ticket ingestion workflow.”

Mid-level Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in distributed cloud systems

Santa Clara, CA3y exp

“Engineer with a thoughtful, production-oriented approach to AI-assisted development, including multi-agent workflows for planning, coding, review, testing, and debugging. Stands out for treating AI systems like distributed pipelines with explicit interfaces, validation layers, and guardrails to improve reliability and reduce hallucinations.”

Revanth P

Mid-level DevOps Engineer specializing in AWS, Azure, Kubernetes, and GenAI infrastructure

Walnut Creek, CA4y exp

“Database/platform engineer with stronger hands-on experience in AWS and Azure than GCP, but able to speak credibly about cloud database architecture, automation, and reliability engineering. They led an on-prem MySQL to RDS/DynamoDB migration, built Terraform/Python-based zero-touch database operations, and described a performance incident where latency dropped from 2s to under 300ms while supporting 2x traffic.”
