Mid-Level Software Engineer specializing in cloud infrastructure and full-stack web development

San Francisco, CA2y exp

“Backend engineer at Electric Hydrogen who built a serverless device-log ingestion and processing platform in Python/Flask, scaling throughput (4x peak ingestion) while keeping sub-300ms API latency. Strong in Postgres/SQLAlchemy performance (partitioning, materialized views) and production ML integration (ONNX model served via FastAPI microservice with async batch inference, Redis feature caching, and drift monitoring via S3/Lambda). Experienced designing secure multi-tenant systems with schema-per-tenant isolation and KMS-backed encryption.”

“Backend/AI engineer who has built a rule-service platform on AWS and evolved it into an agentic RAG system using LangChain, ReAct, tool calling, and LLM-as-judge review. Notable for combining heavy AI-assisted development with production safeguards like manual CR, CloudWatch monitoring, fallback strategies, benchmark testing, and user-feedback-driven model improvement.”

“AWS-focused software engineer who built a self-serve ETL pipeline scheduling service for non-engineers, including automated CloudFormation-based onboarding that cut setup time from 2–3 weeks to ~5 minutes. Strong in production reliability and customer-facing data platforms (EMR/DynamoDB/Lambda), with examples spanning pagination at scale, cross-table consistency, and phased rollouts to improve Parquet log SLAs.”

“Player-coach engineer/lead on a high-scale research integrity platform ("Lighthouse") that flags fraud/manipulation signals across ~3M academic manuscripts per year. Owns architecture decisions (ADRs), implements across Go/Java/React services, and introduced NLP (SciBERT embeddings + human-in-the-loop) to assess out-of-context citations while also handling production incidents with a data-consistency-first approach.”

Junior Software Engineer specializing in healthcare AI and cloud infrastructure

San Francisco, CA3y exp

“Amazon Health AI engineer who has owned both full-stack clinical product features and production LLM systems end to end. Built HIPAA-compliant GraphQL and agentic RAG architectures for provider workflows across 125,000+ patients, with measurable impact including 30% higher clinical relevance, 55% lower lookup time, and 12% less false medical information.”

Mid-Level Software Engineer specializing in full-stack development, cloud, and data infrastructure

Reston, VA3y exp

“Software engineer at Fannie Mae (~3 years) working on high-volume loan data pipelines using AWS (SQS/S3), Java listeners, Postgres, and Python/SQL-based data quality validation. Also built a chess data collection system (leveraging experience as an International Master) with robust retry/monitoring, schema-change handling, and idempotent backfills to prevent bad data from reaching downstream systems.”

“Senior engineering leader at AWS currently managing two services in the MSK organization, including Replicator for disaster recovery/data distribution and Glue Schema Registry. He combines hands-on distributed systems depth with large-scale people leadership, having managed teams up to 32 engineers and coordinated platform onboarding work across roughly 340 AWS services. Earlier experience in payroll and compliance platforms adds strong enterprise domain breadth beyond cloud infrastructure.”

“Backend/full-stack engineer (Amazon experience) who built an AWS-based integration testing platform using Flask, ECS, Docker, and CloudWatch—cutting 1000+ test cases from ~5 hours to ~30 minutes while improving log visibility for non-engineering users. Also led a zero-downtime EU region migration with rigorous ORR testing, and built a Kinesis/Firehose/S3 + Glue/Spark replay mechanism for resilient data recovery. Side project: reproducible, cost-efficient LLM hosting platform on EKS using CDK and Karpenter for scale-to-zero.”

Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in distributed backend systems on AWS

Seattle, WA4y exp

“Built production systems in the AWS ecosystem, including an internal AI assistant for diagnosing account transfer and permissions issues and an end-to-end account transfer workflow used by enterprise customers. Stands out for combining LLM/RAG design with strong distributed systems reliability practices, emphasizing guardrails, fallbacks, and operational trust in high-stakes workflows.”

Senior Software Engineer specializing in AWS-based distributed systems and FinTech platforms

Seattle, WA8y exp

“Backend engineer with Amazon experience building large-scale, automated financial/accounting and pricing systems on AWS. Designed a fault-tolerant Step Functions + DynamoDB workflow platform handling 100K+ messages/sec to compute fair values and generate journal entries in under 3 seconds, and led safe API refactors using shadow mismatch testing. Also uncovered a major legacy pricing bug (tax vs non-tax swap) that cut mismatch rates from 5–10% to ~0.5% and materially improved price acceptance/business outcomes.”
