Vetted Amazon VPC Professionals

“Cloud/SRE-style engineer at TDS supporting revenue-critical transportation SaaS platforms on AWS/GCP with Kubernetes. Has hands-on experience leading high-impact production work including DDoS mitigation, zero-downtime MSSQL→PostgreSQL migration using CDC, and building secure GitHub Actions + ArgoCD delivery pipelines and Terraform-based GKE infrastructure.”

“Backend engineer who built and evolved a startup data-processing backend (Express.js/MySQL) handling millions of user data points, with a microservices pipeline integrating multiple social media APIs. Emphasizes reliability and security through comprehensive testing, robust error/retry handling for sequential pagination constraints, and tight IAM/JWT/OAuth-based access controls.”

“Cloud/Linux infrastructure engineer focused on high-availability AWS platforms (EKS/EC2) with strong observability and incident response ownership. Has hands-on experience building secure CI/CD (GitHub Actions/Jenkins) and Terraform-based IaC at scale, including resolving real production issues like peak-traffic latency and Terraform remote state locking; transparent about not having direct IBM Power/AIX/PowerHA production ownership.”

“DevSecOps/AWS infrastructure engineer at Madison Logic who owns a 15-account AWS footprint and treats nearly all AWS resources as code (Terraform/CloudFormation). Led a CI/CD platform migration (Bitbucket → GitLab + GitHub Actions) supporting WordPress and containerized microservices, improving release frequency to weekly/daily, and has hands-on production incident response experience on ECS Fargate using Datadog with fast rollback via immutable ECR tags and task definition revisions.”

“Customer Success Engineer focused on secure customer integrations for web/AI analytics solutions, frequently aligning retail/business teams with security requirements. Has hands-on experience troubleshooting and hardening API-based integrations in AWS (IAM least privilege, VPC/private subnet patterns, CloudWatch/CloudTrail) and delivering repeatable containerized deployments via Bitbucket CI/CD.”

“Full-stack/product-leaning engineer who owned an end-to-end AI Tutor feature (Claude-powered) shipped simultaneously to iOS/Android/web via Expo, with Cloudflare Workers backend and PostHog analytics. Built the company’s GitHub-based CI/CD to coordinate app store releases with backend blue/green deployments. Also has significant data engineering experience (including ~8TB/day workloads) using dbt/Fivetran plus sharding and hashing-based diffing for correctness.”

“QA automation-focused candidate with hands-on ownership of unit and integration test suites, including CI/CD integration in GitLab. Caught a database-query regression that would have shipped incomplete API data by relying on automated integration tests, and has practical Cypress experience stabilizing flaky tests using cy.intercept()/cy.wait() and stable selectors.”

“Full-stack engineer with healthcare/AI platform experience (Humana), owning an end-to-end high-risk patient prediction feature from React dashboards through FastAPI/TensorFlow real-time inference to AWS EKS operations. Emphasizes production reliability and contract-driven APIs (OpenAPI + generated TS types), plus strong data integration patterns (Kafka, idempotency, DLQs, backfills) in regulated, high-traffic environments.”

“Backend engineer who built and evolved a serverless AWS platform for large-scale live screening events with real-time chat/feedback and streaming (API Gateway/Lambda/DynamoDB/WebSockets/IVS, IaC via Pulumi). Led production refactors and phased migrations using feature flags and dual-write strategies, and has hands-on experience implementing JWT auth, RBAC, and database-enforced row-level security for multi-tenant systems.”

“Built and deployed serverless AWS applications (Lambda/S3/RDS Proxy) including a NASA L’Space React + Python data analysis tool, focusing on performance for large datasets. Demonstrates strong cloud troubleshooting across compute and networking (CloudWatch-driven diagnosis, EC2 scaling, security group fixes) and a user-driven iteration loop that improved product usability with dynamic filtering and interactive UI.”

“Founder/CTO-type candidate with deep exposure to the VC/accelerator ecosystem (Open Angel Forum; HAX/SOSV) and a track record of raising capital, including a $1M seed round in 2017. Built ventures spanning IoT wearable/HUD SaaS for industrial hygiene monitoring and institutional Bitcoin mining/distributed compute infrastructure, and ran a venture from 2017–2025.”

“Cloud-focused DevSecOps/infra engineer with strong AWS production ownership (EC2/EKS/ECS) and hands-on CI/CD (Jenkins->ECR->Helm on Kubernetes). Demonstrated end-to-end outage recovery (ALB 503s caused by Helm env var misconfig) with rapid rollback plus pipeline guardrails, and deep Terraform experience (modular IaC, remote state with S3/DynamoDB, drift detection) supporting federal cloud modernization efforts.”

“Software engineer (Alpine Bank) focused on modernizing high-traffic customer-facing systems with React/TypeScript frontends and Spring Boot microservices. Has hands-on experience stabilizing and scaling event-driven architectures with Kafka (idempotent consumers, partitioning, retry queues) and building internal observability dashboards that materially sped up post-deployment verification and improved release confidence.”

“IBM Power/AIX engineer who has owned a 150+ LPAR AIX 7.x estate with VIOS/HMC/vHMC and PowerHA in production, including real outage and failover recoveries. Also brings modern DevOps/IaC experience—built Jenkins pipelines deploying to AKS and implemented Terraform on AWS with remote state, locking, and drift management.”

“Cloud/infrastructure engineer with strong production operations background across AWS, Azure, and Kubernetes, supporting 30+ enterprise workloads for ~40,000 users. Demonstrated incident leadership (hybrid AKS-to-AWS routing outage) with a reported 60% MTTR reduction, plus hands-on CI/CD (Jenkins) and Terraform-based IaC for AWS (VPC/EC2/EKS). Lacks direct IBM Power/AIX/PowerHA experience but emphasizes transferable ops and troubleshooting skills.”

“Backend engineer experienced in evolving high-scale legacy on-prem systems into cloud-native, event-driven microservices on AWS/Kubernetes (noted peak traffic ~1.5M QPS). Strong focus on reliability engineering and operational excellence—SLO-driven observability, GitOps/canary rollouts, chaos testing, and preventing cascading failures (e.g., retry-storm mitigation).”
