Vetted AWS Lambda Professionals

“AI/LLM practitioner who built a GPT-2-like language model from scratch at the University of Maryland using PyTorch and multi-GPU distributed training, with experiment tracking in Weights & Biases. As an AI Operations intern at ScaleUp360, delivered multiple production-style AI agent automations (Gmail classification and Fireflies-to-Claude workflows that extract and assign CEO tasks) and set up measurable evaluation using test cases and classification metrics.”

“Backend engineer who built Flask-based internal APIs supporting GenAI-driven provisioning/diagnostics (Outpost/AWS Outposts-like environment), with deep hands-on optimization across Postgres/SQLAlchemy (2s to <200ms endpoint improvement). Experienced integrating ML/LLM workflows via AWS SageMaker and Bedrock, and designing multi-tenant isolation plus high-throughput Redis-backed background task pipelines (minutes to seconds).”

“ML-focused candidate with beginner ROS/ROS2 experience (custom pub-sub nodes; TurtleBot3 SLAM simulation debugging via topic inspection and transform/orientation checks). Has research/project exposure to LLM training approaches (GRPO with pseudo-labels using Hugging Face TRL on Qwen/Llama) and uses Docker/Kubernetes + CI/CD to run ViT saliency-attention/compression workloads on UCSD Nautilus infrastructure.”

“Full-stack engineer with experience at Zoho and Amazon who has owned production systems end-to-end, including a monolith-to-microservices migration using Kafka and Cassandra that improved search latency ~25% and increased throughput without data loss. Also built a hackathon project (Buildwise) into a sold product for a construction company (AI-driven document compliance checks) and shipped an IoT-based parking availability MVP in 3 weeks.”

“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).”

“Backend engineer who built a low-latency real-time transaction API in Python/Flask, with strong depth in PostgreSQL/SQLAlchemy performance tuning (time-based partitioning, indexing, connection pooling). Has production experience integrating ML scoring and OpenAI-style APIs with safety/latency controls, and designing multi-tenant isolation strategies including per-tenant pooling/caching and premium-tenant isolation.”

“Software engineer focused on data platforms and applied LLM systems: built an internal data quality monitoring layer to catch silent data drift and iterated post-launch after finding ~30% false-positive alerts, reducing noise via dynamic baselines and improved structured logging. Also shipped a production RAG-based internal knowledge assistant over Jira/Confluence with citations, confidence-based fallbacks, and nightly automated evals to prevent regressions.”

“Data engineer focused on large-scale ETL/ELT pipelines across cloud stacks (GCP and AWS), including Spark-based transformations and orchestration with Airflow. Has experience loading up to ~2TB per BigQuery target table and designing atomic loads to multiple downstream systems (Elasticsearch + Kafka), with Kubernetes deployment and Jenkins CI/CD.”

“Backend/full-stack engineer (5+ years) with Shopify experience integrating LLM/RAG workflows into production APIs. Owned a Python TensorFlow Serving inference pipeline connected to Java microservices via gRPC, optimizing tail latency at ~10k concurrent load and improving retrieval relevance with embedding and evaluation work. Strong Kubernetes/EKS + GitOps/CI/CD background, including monolith-to-microservices migrations and event-driven streaming patterns.”

“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 engineer who built and iterated a secure, multi-tenant RAG system over a large document corpus, emphasizing strict RBAC/ACL isolation, hybrid retrieval (vector+keyword), reranking, and strong observability to balance relevance, latency, and cost. Also led production refactors/migrations using strangler + feature flags/dual writes and has experience catching subtle real-world failure modes (including in a sensor calibration optimization pipeline).”

“Backend engineer with experience at UnitedHealth Group redesigning a high-traffic Spring Boot microservice from blocking to reactive architecture during peak season, cutting median latency by 47% for a service used by ~10M customers annually. Strong in Kubernetes-based deployment/scaling and pragmatic rollout strategies (blue-green/incremental traffic shifting) with performance and database troubleshooting.”

“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.”
