Vetted Amazon RDS Professionals

“Data engineer in financial services (Northern Trust) who has worked across ingestion, transformation, data quality, orchestration, and serving on AWS (S3/Glue/EMR) with Airflow. Highlights include processing ~15M transactions with validation/anomaly detection for regulatory reporting and improving Snowflake query performance by 27% for risk/compliance reporting. Also built a personal real-time streaming service (FastAPI, Kafka, Redis, Cassandra) and uses production reliability patterns like blue-green/atomic swaps and robust retry strategies.”

Mid-Level Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in FinTech and Mortgage systems

Auburn Hills, MI3y exp

“Full-stack engineer with deep AWS serverless and reliability experience in fintech/underwriting systems, including eligibility scoring and dynamic rule deployments. Built and productionized an LLM-powered incident RCA assistant (Bedrock Claude 3 + custom RAG + React) achieving 92% precision and ~75% MTTR reduction, with mature guardrails (evals, drift monitoring, HITL, audit logs) and strong operational rigor (canaries, chaos testing, DLQ remediation).”

Senior Unity Developer specializing in AI/LLM systems and multiplayer VR

Orlando, FL11y exp

“Backend/data engineer focused on AWS-native Python systems: built a FastAPI microservice on ECS/Fargate serving real-time analytics at millions of daily requests with strong reliability (OAuth2/JWT, retries/timeouts, correlation IDs) and autoscaling. Also delivered Glue/PySpark ETL pipelines to curated S3 Parquet/Athena with schema evolution + data quality controls, owned Airflow pipeline incidents, and has a track record of measurable performance and cost optimizations (e.g., ~80%+ query latency reduction; reduced logging/NAT/Fargate spend).”

Mid-level Full-Stack Engineer specializing in web applications and cloud systems

Bloomington, IN4y exp

“Software developer at Indiana University who built a phishing training platform using TypeScript/React, Node, GraphQL, and DynamoDB, including an admin tool to monitor student completion and send automated reminder emails. Also created TechRent, an IU-only electronics rental marketplace concept focused on improving security by restricting access to university students.”

“Candidate has hands-on experience at Cognizant building production-grade automation and integration solutions across Python ML services, Java microservices, Kafka, and Selenium-based UI testing. They stand out for a strong reliability mindset—covering failure modes, observability, flaky test hardening, and translating ambiguous payment-system business processes into resilient end-to-end automated workflows.”

“Healthcare-focused ML/AI engineer who has built production voice agents and clinical question-answering systems end-to-end, from experimentation through deployment, observability, and iteration. Particularly strong in making LLM systems reliable in real workflows via RAG, fine-tuning, guardrails, evaluation pipelines, and shared Python tooling; cites ~20% clinical QA accuracy gains and ~40% faster physician decision turnaround.”

“Application-focused software engineer working on AI-heavy products, with hands-on experience building end-to-end document processing, retrieval, and configurable workflow systems. Particularly strong in combining React/TypeScript UX, FastAPI/Postgres backend design, and LLM workflow reliability improvements through validation, prompt iteration, and reusable abstractions.”

Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in Java, React, and distributed systems

Austin, TX7y exp

“Implementation and AI workflow engineer who has owned customer deployments end-to-end for messaging/integration platforms and also built production-oriented LLM systems. Stands out for combining stakeholder-facing delivery leadership with hands-on experience in Kafka/MongoDB integrations, RAG/agent architectures, and resilient document-processing pipelines with strong validation and fallback controls.”

“Engineering/product leader in early-stage environments who has repeatedly driven major pivots and scaling efforts: pandemic-era refactor at NameCoach and multi-community expansion at Nolodex (now ~20 communities). Comfortable going from executive roadmap/stakeholder alignment to hands-on implementation (e.g., webhooks), and has led architecture shifts (monolith-to-distributed, Heroku-to-AWS) while managing outsourced/offshore teams through organizational friction.”
