Vetted Amazon EKS Professionals

“Backend engineer with Tesla experience building Python-based, serverless microservices for a supply chain portal, including a MongoDB-backed tracking/logging system and a reconciler Lambda to manage retries and failures. Has hands-on Kubernetes (EKS) and GitOps (Argo CD) experience, plus real-time Kafka pipelines for fleet/IoT telemetry and proxy-based migrations from monolith systems to AWS databases.”

“Backend engineer with hands-on experience building Python/Flask microservices using PostgreSQL/SQLAlchemy, JWT auth, Docker, and GitHub Actions CI/CD. Strong in performance and scalability work—migrated heavy processing to Celery/Redis, tuned queries with EXPLAIN ANALYZE and indexing, and delivered 50%+ API latency reduction. Also integrates AI workflows (OpenAI APIs) with batching/caching/fallbacks and has implemented multi-tenant data isolation patterns.”

“Amazon data engineer who built a real-time fraud detection pipeline for AWS Lambda, tackling multi-region telemetry quality issues and scaling stream processing for billions of daily requests. Strong in production-grade data/ML workflows on AWS (EMR, Glue, Kinesis, SageMaker) with hands-on entity resolution and anomaly detection.”

“Stripe engineer who shipped an end-to-end merchant fraud insights dashboard, spanning Spring Boot/Kafka risk-scoring services and a React+TypeScript UI. Focused on low-latency, high-volume transaction processing and production operations on AWS (EKS/CloudWatch), including handling a real traffic-spike latency incident via query optimization, indexing, and rate limiting.”

“Backend/data engineer with production experience building FastAPI services with strong reliability patterns (circuit breaker, rate limiting, caching, graceful degradation) and JWT/OAuth2 auth. Has delivered AWS EKS deployments via Terraform with Secrets Manager/IRSA and HPA autoscaling, and built Glue/Spark ETL pipelines on S3 Parquet with schema-evolution and idempotent reruns; also demonstrated measurable SQL tuning impact (20–30s to <10s).”

“IBM Power/AIX infrastructure engineer who has owned a large enterprise footprint (40 Power8/9 frames, 400+ AIX LPARs) with deep hands-on VIOS/HMC, NIM, performance tuning, and PowerHA recovery. Demonstrated high-impact incident response (avoided DB reboot saving ~4 hours; restored clustered services in <20 minutes) plus strong RCA and preventative remediation. Also brings modern DevOps/IaC experience building GitHub Actions pipelines and Terraform-managed AWS EKS/VPC/RDS/S3 environments.”

“Backend engineer with experience at Meta and Accenture building regulated-data systems (healthcare/financial) using Python/Flask and Postgres. Has scaled high-throughput services to millions of daily requests, delivering measurable latency wins (~40% API latency reduction; ~35% faster DB-backed endpoints), and has productionized ML inference services using Docker/Kubernetes and AWS (ECS/SageMaker).”

“Meta engineer focused on reliability/operations tooling who built a unified real-time health dashboard and scalable telemetry pipelines (AWS + Datadog) for thousands of devices. Also shipped an internal LLM-powered knowledge assistant using RAG over wikis/runbooks/logs with strong guardrails and a rigorous eval loop that drove measurable accuracy improvements via automated doc ingestion and embedding updates.”

“Backend engineer with healthcare platform experience at Thirty Madison, combining Django for secure, data-heavy core services with FastAPI async microservices for real-time patient monitoring. Led Kubernetes migration with Istio service mesh, autoscaling (HPA), and stateful storage patterns, and implemented GitOps CI/CD using ArgoCD. Also built real-time Kafka streaming pipelines with reliability patterns like idempotent producers and offset management.”

“AppSec/customer security specialist with Atlassian enterprise cloud migration experience, advising on SSO and API token hardening and driving adoption through phased rollouts. Implemented Snyk (SCA) and SonarQube (SAST) in Bitbucket Pipelines with Jira-based vuln workflows, cutting critical vuln MTTR from 30 to 7 days for financial services customers. Strong in SSO troubleshooting (Okta/SAML) and secure AWS/EKS-based agent integrations with secrets management and Datadog observability.”
