Vetted Auto Scaling Professionals

“Backend/Node.js-focused engineer who improved a widely used shared config/logging utility library by fixing a real-world async race condition (single disk read under concurrency) and adding stronger validation/testing, resulting in more deterministic services and faster startup/build/CI times. Also builds internal platform automation spanning Python/Go/TypeScript with strong documentation practices and security-conscious customer onboarding (e.g., sensitive Kubernetes clusters, HashiCorp Vault access issues).”

“AWS Cloud DevOps Engineer focused on production Linux environments, building secure CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins/GitHub) to deploy Dockerized services to AWS ECS and automating infrastructure with Terraform/CloudFormation. Strong in operational troubleshooting and scaling (CloudWatch-driven performance remediation, Auto Scaling/ELB, multi-AZ HA patterns), but explicitly does not have IBM Power/AIX or PowerHA/HACMP experience.”

“Backend/data engineer with strong AWS production experience spanning serverless APIs and containerized workers (Lambda, API Gateway, ECS) plus data pipelines (Glue, S3, Athena/Redshift). Has modernized legacy SAS/cron batch systems into Python/AWS with parallel-run parity validation and low-risk cutovers, and has owned ETL incidents end-to-end (CloudWatch detection, backfills, and preventative controls). Targeting $130k–$150k base and strongly prefers remote, with occasional Bethesda onsite acceptable.”

“Software engineer/product-minded builder who owns customer-facing products end-to-end and ships in 1–2 week increments using CI/CD, automated testing, and feature flags. Built a TypeScript/React/Node platform that cut page load times by 40% and scaled to 3x concurrent users, and designed RabbitMQ-based microservices with Prometheus/Grafana monitoring. Also delivered an internal real-time support analytics dashboard that reduced response times by 30%.”

Senior Software Engineer specializing in distributed systems and AI platforms

Chicago, IL5y exp

“Senior engineer transitioning into a lead engineer role who is actively overseeing 5 developers and championing an AI-first development culture. Stands out for a highly structured approach to AI-assisted software delivery, including context engineering, phased planning, multi-agent orchestration, and deliberate hallucination mitigation rather than 'vibe coding.'”

“Data engineer with ~4 years of experience building Python-based data ingestion/processing services and real-time streaming pipelines (Kafka/PubSub + Spark Structured Streaming). Has deployed containerized data applications on Kubernetes with GitLab CI/Jenkins pipelines and applied GitOps to cut deployment time ~40% while reducing config drift. Also supported a legacy on-prem data warehouse/backend migration to GCP using phased migration and parallel validation to meet strict reliability/SLA needs.”

“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.”

“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.”

Cambridge, MA3y exp

“Full-stack engineer with healthcare/bioinformatics experience who built a real-time genomic data analysis and 2D visualization feature (React/TypeScript + D3, FastAPI) at University of Utah Health, deploying on AWS ECS Fargate with monitoring and measuring engagement via Google Analytics. Also built AWS Lambda-based ETL pipelines for lab data ingestion using pandas/NumPy with reliability patterns (idempotency, retries, CloudWatch alerting) and drove maintainability improvements through shared component libraries and React hooks.”

“Senior AI/ML engineer with hands-on experience building production LLM systems in healthcare, including RAG-based clinical question answering and end-to-end MLOps on Vertex AI and Kubernetes. They combine strong platform engineering with applied GenAI work, citing a 35% improvement in factual accuracy and a 30% boost in internal team productivity through modular Python services and CI/CD.”

New York, NY4y exp

“Backend-focused engineer with experience building high-volume policy management and enterprise pricing systems, including Django/FastAPI/Flask services, Kafka-based async workflows, and Prometheus/Grafana observability. While they have not yet shipped a customer-facing AI agent or production LLM integration, they bring strong cloud, API, reliability, and scalable system design fundamentals that translate well to responsible AI infrastructure work.”

“Backend-focused TypeScript/Node.js engineer who owned a production microservice for transactional workflows in a React + microservices platform, integrating REST and Kafka event processing. Emphasizes operability and correctness (idempotency keys, exponential backoff retries, DLQs, centralized logging/metrics/alerts) plus strong API DX via versioning and Swagger/OpenAPI with improved error contracts based on developer feedback.”

“Built and productionized LLM agents that ingest multi-source workplace data (Slack, meetings, calendars, PM tools) to extract entities (tasks/decisions/risks/initiatives) and generate customer insights like risk alerts, deadline-miss prediction with evidence, and workload overload detection. Also architected a graph-DB-backed multi-step agent using LangChain + Pydantic with async queue/worker execution and LLM-as-judge evaluation plus human review loops.”
