Vetted Amazon EKS Professionals

“Backend/data engineer from Oscar Health specializing in healthcare claims systems on AWS. Built HIPAA-compliant real-time services (FastAPI/Postgres/Kafka on EKS) and serverless ingestion pipelines, and led modernization of a legacy SAS claims pricing system to Python/Spark with rigorous parity validation. Demonstrated measurable impact with high uptime/low latency services and major Snowflake performance and cost reductions.”

“Backend/data engineer with hands-on production experience across GCP (FastAPI microservices on Kubernetes) and AWS (Lambda, ECS Fargate, Glue). Has modernized legacy SAS batch systems into Python services with parallel-run parity validation, and has strong operational rigor in ETL reliability/monitoring plus proven SQL tuning impact (25s to <300ms, ~60% CPU reduction).”

“DevOps/SRE focused on cloud-based distributed systems, with strong hands-on Kubernetes production experience (microservices deployments, Helm, probes, resource tuning, CI/CD and Docker build standardization). Demonstrated end-to-end troubleshooting across application, infrastructure, and networking layers—e.g., isolating degraded storage via node disk I/O metrics and restoring performance by draining the node and replacing the volume. Builds Python automation for operational reliability, including scheduled Kubernetes secrets rotation integrated with an external secret manager.”

“Backend/data engineer with healthcare/telehealth domain experience, building patient appointment and data-processing systems on AWS. Has delivered production microservices and ETL pipelines (Flask/Celery, Glue/PySpark) with strong reliability/observability practices (JWT, retries/timeouts, Sentry/CloudWatch) and modernization experience migrating SAS workflows to Python services, including a documented 10min→30sec SQL performance win.”

“JavaScript/TypeScript engineer from Ridgeline who built a retry feature for failed staging-to-production promotions with pre-promotion health checks. Brings a backend-scaling mindset to runtime performance work (metrics-first bottlenecking, Big-O analysis, async/parallelism, caching) and leverages Cursor/AI tooling to ramp quickly on large codebases.”

“Backend/AI engineer who built a production GPU-backed real-time inference API at Nvidia and debugged burst-induced tail latency, cutting P95 by ~29% through dynamic batching and backpressure. Also shipped an end-to-end RAG + agentic operational diagnostics assistant with strict tool controls, evidence citation, confidence gating, and strong production guardrails, plus demonstrated hands-on Postgres optimization (900ms to 40–60ms).”
