Vetted Amazon ECS Professionals

“Unity VR senior developer with ~8 years in VR and ~3 years focused on Meta Quest, building multiplayer training/digital-twin style experiences. Strong Photon (PUN/Fusion) background, including solving tricky networked object attachment/jitter issues via ownership and local-physics strategies. Demonstrated hands-on performance turnarounds in VR scenes using Mesh Baker, LODs, and impostors, plus experience shipping social multiplayer VR activities with Photon Voice.”

“Backend/data engineer with hands-on production experience building FastAPI Python APIs and AWS-native platforms (Lambda/API Gateway, SQS, ECS Fargate) with Terraform + GitHub Actions CI/CD and strong reliability practices (JWT/RBAC, retries/timeouts, structured errors/logging). Also built AWS Glue ETL pipelines (S3/RDS to curated S3/Athena) with schema evolution and data quality controls, modernized legacy processing via parallel-run validation and phased cutovers, and has demonstrated SQL tuning impact (seconds to <200ms) plus incident ownership for batch pipeline SLAs.”

Senior Java Full-Stack Developer specializing in microservices and cloud platforms

5y exp

“Frontend engineer who has led enterprise-scale UI delivery end-to-end on a microservices platform, designing modular Angular SPAs (v12-17) tightly aligned to Spring Boot REST APIs. Emphasizes quality and release velocity through layered testing (Karma/Jasmine), CI/CD automation (Jenkins/Azure DevOps), performance tuning with RxJS/lazy loading, and incremental rollouts with close product/design/QA collaboration.”

Mid-Level Software Development Engineer specializing in distributed systems and event-driven architectures

Santa Clara, California4y exp

“Built and maintained an internal JavaScript/React real-time event monitoring UI used by multiple Goldman Sachs teams (e.g., Private Wealth Management and Bulk Trading Systems). Focused on scaling performance under hundreds of events/sec—using profiling, memoization, batching, and debouncing—and paired it with strong internal documentation and disciplined incident diagnosis via synthetic load testing and logs/metrics.”

“Full-stack product engineer who owned a live-events digital ticketing platform end-to-end, including blockchain-based ticket validation and high-traffic booking flows. Stands out for combining Angular/React frontend work with Java/Spring Boot backend architecture, plus strong production reliability practices around concurrency control, queues, observability, and UX optimization.”

“Backend engineer who replaced an Excel-heavy forecasting workflow with a secure, auditable FastAPI system (React UI + relational model + async workers), emphasizing deterministic processing, idempotency, and versioned ledger-style ingestion. Led a monolith-to-FastAPI migration at Bounteous using a strangler approach, feature-flagged incremental rollout, and data reconciliation/shadow-compare to protect integrity while scaling onboarding workflows.”

“Backend/ML engineer who has shipped high-scale real-time systems across e-commerce and healthcare: built a PharmEasy real-time recommendation engine for ~2M monthly users (cut feature latency 5 min→30 sec; +15% cross-sell) and architected a HIPAA-compliant multimodal clinical diagnostic workflow (DICOM+EHR) with XAI, MLOps (MLflow/Airflow/K8s), and drift/monitoring guardrails supporting 10k+ daily predictions.”

“Backend engineer with experience building and modernizing high-volume healthcare transaction systems, including migrating Java services to Spring Boot microservices and adopting Kafka-based event-driven architectures. Strong focus on production reliability and operability (observability, CI/CD, standardized patterns) plus security (OAuth/JWT, RBAC, Postgres/Supabase RLS) and resilient stream processing (idempotency, DLQs).”

“Software engineer with strong full-stack and platform experience (TypeScript/React/Node.js) who has built real-time analytics dashboards and microservices using RabbitMQ. Demonstrates production-minded decision-making under launch pressure (manual fallback for payment-impacting third-party API issues) and has delivered internal DevOps tooling that automates compliance checks via GitHub/Jira integrations.”

“Built and deployed a GPT-4-powered medical assistant for clinical staff to reduce time spent searching guidelines and EHR information, with a strong emphasis on safety and compliance. Uses strict RAG, confidence thresholds, and fallback behaviors to prevent hallucinations, and runs production-grade workflows orchestrated with LangChain/LangGraph plus Docker/Kubernetes/MLflow and monitoring for reliability and cost.”

“Full-stack engineer/product owner who built and scaled a customer-facing job application portal (Skillbridge) using TypeScript/React and Spring Boot/MongoDB, optimizing search performance with indexing, caching (Redis), and payload/lazy-loading improvements. Also built an internal AI-driven analytics dashboard for Salesforce operations using OpenAI sentiment analysis, achieving 70% reduction in manual analysis and driving adoption through demos and iterative feedback.”

“Cloud-native integration engineer (Oracle/OCI) with strong production deployment and incident-response experience, including API gateway rollouts, observability (Prometheus/Grafana), and multi-layer debugging for payments systems. Built Python/FastAPI microservices and automation for customer-specific reporting and data sync, and has delivered major performance gains (45 min to <10) plus reliability improvements (MTTD reduced 40%+) through monitoring, playbooks, and resilient integration patterns (streaming/queuing, retries, secure tokens, VPC peering).”

“Deloitte engineer who built and shipped AI-powered, Kafka-driven workflow automation for transportation/document processing, including LLM-based semantic search. Strong in production reliability (idempotency, offset management, retries), observability (Datadog/CloudWatch), and database performance tuning (PostgreSQL/Flyway), with measurable latency improvements.”

“Software engineer with payments-domain experience (Visa) building real-time transaction monitoring and analytics systems. Strong end-to-end ownership across Spring Boot/Kafka microservices, PostgreSQL modeling, and AWS/Kubernetes operations, plus React+TypeScript dashboards—focused on low-latency processing, secure APIs, and zero-downtime production releases.”
