Vetted Amazon API Gateway Professionals

“Full-stack and AI systems engineer who has built across ride-hailing, fintech, higher-ed support, and legal-tech workflows. Stands out for shipping production RAG/agent systems with careful grounding and human fallback, while also delivering hard backend architecture wins like geospatial dispatch scaling and cutting fintech payment latency from 60 seconds to 2 seconds.”

“Backend/data engineer with hands-on production experience across Python/Flask microservices and AWS serverless/data platforms (Lambda, DynamoDB, S3, Glue/PySpark). Demonstrated strong reliability and operations mindset (JWT/RBAC, retries/timeouts/circuit breakers, CloudWatch/SNS alerting) and measurable performance wins (SQL report runtime cut from 10 minutes to 30 seconds). Seeking ~$150k base and cannot travel for onsite meetings for the next 5–6 months due to family medical constraints.”

“Backend/data engineer with aerospace telemetry and reporting experience across RTX and other orgs, spanning Python/FastAPI microservices, AWS serverless/containers, and AWS Glue-to-Redshift analytics pipelines. Has led legacy modernization with parallel-run parity validation and incremental rollout, and demonstrates strong operational ownership (monitoring, incident response, and cost optimization).”

“CloudData engineer who productionized an LLM assistant for a warehouse/logistics customer by wrapping it as a versioned, containerized API with guardrails, deterministic post-processing, and full observability. Experienced diagnosing real-time RAG/agentic incidents (latency spikes and confident-wrong answers) using trace-based isolation, replay in staging, retrieval tuning, and canary releases. Regularly runs technical demos/workshops and partners with sales on security/IAM, SLAs, and pilot rollouts to drive adoption.”

“Full-stack/ML-leaning engineer who has shipped production-grade real-time analytics and an internal AI support assistant using RAG over enterprise documentation. Demonstrates strong systems thinking across scalability, reliability, observability, and LLM safety/evaluation (thresholded retrieval, RBAC, response validation, regression-gated evals), with concrete iteration based on performance metrics and user feedback.”

“Full-stack engineer with strong DevOps/AWS experience who ships end-to-end React/TypeScript + Node/Python systems and operates them in production. Built an LLM-assisted recommendations workflow for a SaaS product with robust reliability controls (schema-validated JSON outputs, fallbacks, caching, monitoring) and measured impact via adoption, time saved, and override rates; also experienced delivering MVPs fast in early-stage startup ambiguity.”

“Backend/data engineer with hands-on production experience across Azure and AWS: built FastAPI + PostgreSQL services with Azure AD OAuth2/JWT auth and strong reliability patterns (timeouts, retries, correlation IDs). Delivered AWS Lambda/ECS solutions with Terraform/CI-CD and cost controls (SQS buffering, reserved concurrency), and built/operated AWS Glue ETL pipelines into Redshift while modernizing legacy SAS reporting into Python microservices with parity testing.”

“Full-stack TypeScript/React/Next.js builder who created an end-to-end customer-facing product (AI Job Master) that generates personalized outreach from resumes and job descriptions. Demonstrates strong product + engineering ownership with rapid MVP iteration, instrumentation-driven prioritization, and pragmatic reliability patterns (microservices, queues, correlation IDs, retries) while tackling a key AI challenge: user trust and output consistency.”

“Backend/infra-focused engineer who owned production systems for distributed ML experimentation (hyperparameter tuning across a cluster with GPU scaling, custom scheduling, and checkpoint-based fault tolerance). Also built and operated a low-latency log validation service using queued async workflows with idempotency, retries/backoff, and strong observability, plus experience building resilient Selenium-based browser automations for complex multi-step web flows.”

“Backend/data engineer who has built production AI video generation services on AWS using a hybrid serverless + container architecture (FastAPI, Lambda, ECS, Postgres/Redis) with strong reliability practices (auth, retries/timeouts, structured logging, CloudWatch + Slack alerting). Also delivered AWS Glue ETL pipelines with schema evolution handling and modernized a legacy SAS healthcare reporting workflow to Python with parity validation and parallel-run migration.”
