Vetted Amazon EKS Professionals

“Infrastructure/automation engineer with experience bridging post-acquisition environments (Pandora + SiriusXM) by building an API-driven integration to provision Debian workloads on RHV while preserving iPXE-based imaging workflows. Strong in deep debugging across virtualization/network/OS layers (e.g., resolving virtio/vCPU contention causing network/NFS issues) and in extending automation tooling via custom Ansible/Python modules. Also has exposure to biomanufacturing on-prem devices (Hamiltons, shakers) alongside AWS microservices.”

“Infrastructure engineer with deep production IBM Power/AIX experience (AIX 7.2/7.3, HMC, dual VIOS, PowerHA) supporting ~25–30 LPARs and handling live DLPAR tuning, HA failovers, and Power7→Power9 migrations. Also builds modern cloud delivery platforms—Azure DevOps CI/CD deploying Dockerized microservices to Kubernetes with Terraform-managed AWS infrastructure, strong controls around secrets, drift, and safe rollouts.”

“Backend/platform engineer who owned an end-to-end financial data ingestion and validation system (Python/Django/FastAPI, Postgres, AWS), including large-file performance tuning, auditability, and CI/CD. Strong Kubernetes/EKS + ArgoCD GitOps practitioner and has delivered both Kafka-based real-time transaction streaming and a legacy on-prem stack migration to AWS (ECS Fargate, RDS, S3, Secrets Manager) with controlled cutovers and data consistency validation.”

“AI/LLM engineer with healthcare domain experience who built a production clinical support “chart bot” for Molina, including PHI-safe ingestion of 200k+ PDF policies, vector retrieval, and a fine-tuned LLaMA served via vLLM on ECS Fargate. Demonstrated measurable performance wins (HNSW + namespace partitioning; 30% inference latency reduction) and a rigorous evaluation/monitoring approach, while partnering closely with nurses and operations teams to shape workflows and guardrails.”

“Early-stage startup full-stack engineer who built an inventory and billing management product for retail shop owners in India, iterating quickly based on customer feedback. Has hands-on experience designing scalable cloud infrastructure on GCP with Kubernetes and applying clean architecture for testable, modular systems; also built internal monitoring dashboards for error and performance visibility.”

“Software developer with hands-on experience refactoring a legacy .NET CMS into a newer API-driven application (ASP.NET MVC, JavaScript/HTML), including dynamic asset migration and resolving team merge conflicts in Bitbucket. Built automated tests with PyTest and used Postman for API validation, and leveraged Splunk for production issue detection; also worked on an end-to-end ticketing/workflow management project with prioritization and verification steps.”

“LLM/agent production specialist with strong customer-facing and pre-sales chops: turns demo-grade prototypes into reliable, compliant deployments using RAG tuning, guardrails, evals in CI, and observability with staged rollouts/rollback. Known for engineering-first workshops (including live break-and-fix on retrieval misses, tool timeouts, and prompt injection) that win over skeptical senior developers and drive adoption.”

“Infrastructure security/DevSecOps engineer who led security and automation patterns during a large Azure migration (30+ legacy apps, wave-based execution), enforcing zero-trust controls by baking CrowdStrike/Illumio into golden images and adding CI/CD security gates. Experienced integrating GitLab runners and Terraform agents as containerized services with strong secrets management (Azure Key Vault) and disciplined image/versioning practices, and has hands-on troubleshooting of ACI runtime constraints under load.”

“Backend-focused Python engineer who has owned production FastAPI services deployed on Kubernetes, including CI/CD (GitLab CI to ECR) and GitOps delivery via ArgoCD/Helm. Has hands-on experience with complex reliability and infrastructure work—solving data inconsistency with validation/partial-data paths, fixing K8s liveness issues via lazy loading, and supporting a phased cloud-to-on-prem migration with dual-writes and monitoring. Also built Kafka-based real-time ingestion consumers handling bursty, high-throughput traffic with async processing and topic/retention tuning.”
