Senior DevSecOps/Cloud Engineer specializing in secure AWS delivery for federal environments

Alexandria, VA8y exp

“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.”

Mid-Level Full-Stack Engineer specializing in AWS serverless and React/Node.js

Los Angeles, CA5y exp

“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.”

Entry-Level Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in serverless AWS and AI applications

Tempe, AZ1y exp

“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.”

“Backend/full-stack engineer with experience spanning AI-powered fintech features and high-volume roadway surveillance/ALPR platforms. They have owned production APIs, improved API latency by 35% through database/query optimization, and helped drive a Kafka-based ingestion architecture that increased throughput by 30% while improving reliability at scale.”

“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.”

“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.”

Senior DevOps Engineer specializing in cloud infrastructure and CI/CD

Boston, Massachusetts11y exp

“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.”

“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).”
