Vetted Amazon DynamoDB Professionals

“Built and productionized a multi-agent LLM analytics assistant at eBay that routes natural-language questions to retrieval or text-to-SQL, dynamically retrieves relevant schemas via a vector DB, and executes against a data warehouse. Drove a major quality lift (text-to-SQL accuracy 60%→85%) and materially reduced time engineers/PMs spent getting data insights through strong eval/monitoring, tracing, and reliability-focused design (schema retrieval, strict JSON outputs, retries/clarifications).”

“Backend/AI systems engineer who has shipped production LLM agents focused on prompt engineering, code generation, and incident-response automation. Stands out for combining strong agent orchestration and reliability engineering with measurable business impact, including 60-70% cost reductions, 45% lower monthly LLM spend, and a 5x increase in developer iteration speed.”

“Built a production GenAI support agent at Amazon for FBA on-call operations, using Bedrock, Lambda, RAG, and confidence-based human fallback to safely automate ticket triage. The system materially reduced ticket volume and manual workload while improving MTTR, showing strong depth in reliable LLM agent architecture under real operational constraints.”

“Engineer who uses AI in a disciplined, practical way—leveraging it to speed debugging, generate edge-case tests, and improve coverage while retaining ownership of system design and production validation. Has experimented with chained AI tools but prefers simpler workflows when they reduce noise and review overhead.”
