Vetted AWS Glue Professionals

“AI/ML engineer who has deployed production LLM/transformer-based systems for merchant intelligence and fraud/support optimization, delivering +27% merchant engagement and +18% payment success. Deep experience in privacy-preserving, PCI DSS-compliant data/ML pipelines (Airflow, AWS Glue, Spark, Delta Lake) and scalable microservices on Kubernetes, plus proven cross-functional delivery in healthcare claims analytics at UnitedHealth Group (12% HEDIS claim reduction).”

“Ticketmaster data engineer who built CDC-driven Kafka pipelines feeding Snowflake for analytics and data science teams. Hands-on in production operations—scaled Kafka during sudden playoff-driven transaction spikes and improved monitoring for preemptive scaling. Known for using small-batch experiments and quantitative metrics to align stakeholders and drive cost-saving architecture changes (e.g., buffering to reduce AWS Lambda invocation frequency).”

“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.”

“Backend/data engineer with hands-on production experience across Python/FastAPI services and AWS (Lambda, API Gateway, SQS, ECS) delivered via Terraform and GitHub Actions. Built Glue-to-Redshift ETL pipelines with Step Functions retry/catch patterns, schema evolution safeguards, and data quality checks; also modernized a legacy SAS monthly reporting system into Python microservices with rigorous side-by-side parity validation. Demonstrated strong SQL tuning skills with a reported improvement from 5 minutes to 15 seconds.”

“Capital One engineer leading the architecture and delivery of a large-scale AWS Glue/Spark/Delta Lake batch messaging pipeline that decoupled batch from real-time flows, added multi-region failover and automated retries, and delivered ~40% AWS cost savings with ~3x performance gains. Currently building an LLM-powered Slack bot using RAG to automate message investigations by querying CloudWatch, Snowflake, and internal documentation with privacy-aware masking of NPI/PII.”

“Backend/data engineer with production experience building credit/fraud enrichment services and checkout pipelines on AWS (EKS + Lambda) using FastAPI, Kafka, Postgres, and Redis, with a strong focus on reliability patterns (timeouts/retries/circuit breakers) and observability. Has also built AWS Glue/PySpark ETL into S3/Redshift with schema evolution and data quality controls, and modernized legacy credit decisioning into Java/Node microservices with parallel-run parity validation and feature-flag rollouts.”
