Vetted AWS CloudFormation Professionals

“Engineer who uses AI in a disciplined, practical way—leveraging it to speed debugging, generate edge-case tests, and improve coverage while retaining ownership of system design and production validation. Has experimented with chained AI tools but prefers simpler workflows when they reduce noise and review overhead.”

Junior Full-Stack Developer specializing in Java microservices and cloud platforms

Overland Park, KS2y exp

“Full-stack engineer (~2.6 years) with strong Java/Spring Boot backend experience and React/Angular frontend exposure, who has worked on enterprise-scale systems at Dell processing ~1.8M daily transactions/events. Built secure, partner/internal-facing APIs (OAuth2/JWT) across 14 integrations and implemented Kafka-based order/payment workflows with idempotency and sub-700ms processing targets, plus CI/CD and Selenium-based release validation.”

“ML/AI engineer with hands-on ownership of production document intelligence and GenAI systems, spanning model experimentation, AWS deployment, monitoring, and iterative optimization. Stands out for turning document-heavy workflows into reliable, near real-time products with measurable gains in accuracy, latency, and manual-effort reduction, while also shipping citation-grounded RAG features that drove user trust and adoption.”

“Engineering leader focused on large-scale enterprise SaaS and MDM platforms, with experience modernizing monoliths into microservices, improving reliability, and scaling systems to support 15M devices across AWS and Azure. Stands out for combining deep platform architecture work with strong org-building: managed teams up to 45 globally and built a 0-to-1 platform services team to 22 people in under a year.”

Director-level engineering leader specializing in identity, authentication, and AI security

Mountain View, CA12y exp

“Engineering leader at Intuit focused on identity, authentication, and security infrastructure for AI integrations in highly sensitive financial workflows. Led a 10-person Tier 1 team, built an AgentIdentity framework across 3 organizations, and helped launch TurboTax/QBO integrations with ChatGPT and Claude while maintaining strict reliability and security standards.”

“Backend/data engineer from ASML who modernized a legacy SAS-based statistical processing system into a cloud-native AWS platform (Lambda/FastAPI, Step Functions/EventBridge, Glue, S3/RDS) with strong reliability and data-quality practices. Demonstrated measurable performance wins (RDS query reduced from 90+ seconds to <5 seconds) and hands-on incident ownership for production ETL pipelines.”

“Bootstrapped founder building a cybersecurity framework for cloud-native applications and startups, differentiated by significantly faster end-to-end cloud environment delivery than traditional consulting. Has experience navigating pricing models (fixed price vs time & materials) using MVP and phased delivery, and has strong familiarity with the VC/accelerator landscape with interest in healthcare (details under NDA).”

“Infrastructure/operations engineer with hands-on IBM Power/AIX administration (LPAR/DLPAR, HMC, RMC) and PowerHA cluster failover experience, plus modern DevOps tooling across CI/CD, Kubernetes/Helm, and IaC (Terraform/CloudFormation/Ansible). Emphasizes controlled change management, drift prevention via Git-as-source-of-truth, and observability practices using Prometheus/Grafana.”

Senior Backend & Infrastructure Engineer specializing in cloud-native distributed systems

5y exp

“LLM infrastructure engineer who built a production-critical real-time personalization and memory retrieval system for a user-facing product, adding <100ms P99 latency while improving relevance ~20–25% and holding SLA through 3x traffic. Experienced designing tiered retrieval backends (Redis + vector store), deploying on Kubernetes with autoscaling/circuit breakers, and running rigorous observability, incident response, and agent evaluation (shadow traffic, A/B tests, regression/replay).”

“IBM-based cloud and AI engineer with hands-on experience owning Azure deployment workflows end-to-end, including IaC, DevOps automation, and cost/performance optimization. Also built an edge-first hospital event-detection workflow combining vision, LLM orchestration, and privacy-preserving local processing in a Nvidia/Dell hackathon that won first place.”
