Vetted Amazon EC2 Professionals

“Frontend-leaning full-stack engineer who described owning an artist search and detail experience across UI, backend integrations, and data modeling. They show practical strength in scalable React architecture, TypeScript safety, and performance tuning, with a product-minded approach to shipping 0→1 features quickly and iterating after launch.”

“Robotics software engineer with internship experience at John Deere and AeroVironment, working across C++/Python stacks and ROS2-based systems. Drove a proof-of-concept migration from an x86/FPGA target to NVIDIA GPU solutions and helped turn a hackathon prototype into a production-ready, CI/CD-driven build-and-deploy workflow with comprehensive automated testing.”

Mid-level AI/ML Engineer specializing in LLMs, RAG, and scalable inference

San Francisco, CA6y exp

“Backend/retrieval-focused engineer with production experience at Perplexity building a large-scale real-time Q&A system using retrieval-augmented generation, emphasizing low-latency, high-quality answers through ranking, context optimization, and caching. Also has orchestration experience from both product-facing LLM pipelines and large-scale infrastructure workflows at Meta, and has partnered with non-technical stakeholders to align AI trade-offs with business goals.”

“CTO-minded builder seeking to join a startup; previously created an AI-driven platform that abstracted away DevOps and infrastructure for drug discovery researchers. Emphasizes high-leverage, zero-to-one execution with managed cloud/open-source tooling, and a strong reliability/reproducibility mindset validated against existing scientific pipelines.”

“Backend/full-stack engineer (Amazon experience) who built an AWS-based integration testing platform using Flask, ECS, Docker, and CloudWatch—cutting 1000+ test cases from ~5 hours to ~30 minutes while improving log visibility for non-engineering users. Also led a zero-downtime EU region migration with rigorous ORR testing, and built a Kinesis/Firehose/S3 + Glue/Spark replay mechanism for resilient data recovery. Side project: reproducible, cost-efficient LLM hosting platform on EKS using CDK and Karpenter for scale-to-zero.”

Mid-level AI/ML Engineer specializing in GPU inference and LLM platforms

San Francisco, CA5y exp

“Built and deployed an LLM-powered platform that turns models into scalable REST/gRPC APIs, focusing on keeping GPU-backed inference fast and stable during traffic spikes. Experienced with AWS orchestration (EKS/ECS/Step Functions), safe model rollouts, and production-grade monitoring/testing for reliable AI agents and workflows.”

Mid-level AI/ML Engineer specializing in fraud detection and clinical LLM assistants

New York, NY6y exp

“Built and deployed a production clinical support LLM assistant at Mayo Clinic using a LangChain-orchestrated RAG architecture (Llama 2/PaLM) over de-identified clinical records, integrating BigQuery with Pinecone for semantic retrieval. Focused on healthcare-critical reliability by reducing hallucinations through grounding, implementing HIPAA-aligned privacy controls (Cloud DLP, VPC Service Controls), and running structured evaluations with clinician feedback.”

“Backend/full-stack engineer who has owned a production recruiting platform end-to-end (TypeScript/Node microservices for scraping/cleaning/serving job data, RabbitMQ for spike handling, MongoDB + Elasticsearch, AWS containers) with pragmatic CI, logging/alerts, and Docker Compose E2E tests. Also operated high-traffic event pipelines during a Binance internship using Kafka + Redis idempotency, with strong observability and failure-mode/rollback/degradation practices, and has experience designing developer-friendly REST APIs and resilient browser automation for E2E flows.”

“Fintech/neobank CTO (5+ years across US and UK markets) now building Payzo Money, a fintech copilot for SMBs covering expenses, accounting, invoicing, and payroll. Pre-revenue and seeking a $5M seed round, with active Bay Area conversations and a clear focus on bank sponsorship plus compliance/operations readiness; leverages Claude-based AI agents to accelerate building with limited resources.”
