Vetted AWS Step Functions Professionals

“AWS-focused backend/data engineer with hands-on production experience building serverless APIs (Lambda/API Gateway) secured with Cognito/JWT, deploying via Terraform + CI/CD, and managing secrets with Secrets Manager/Parameter Store. Also built AWS Glue ETL from S3 to RDS with schema evolution and data-quality controls, modernized a monolith into microservices using parallel testing, and delivered major SQL performance gains (minutes to seconds) while owning incident response for batch pipelines.”

“LLM/agentic AI builder who deployed a production ITSM automation agent on Google ADK integrating ServiceNow and FreshService, with strong safety guardrails (human-approval gating and runbook-only command execution) and rigorous evaluation (500 synthetic tickets; 80%+ false-positive reduction). Also partnered with finance to deliver an AI agent that automated invoice/SOW retrieval and monthly reporting to account managers, reducing manual back-and-forth.”

“Backend/applied AI engineer from Cloud Rack Systems who built production GenAI/RAG and data platforms on Azure/Databricks at enterprise scale (2.5M records/day). Known for making LLM systems behave like deterministic services via strict retrieval contracts, citation-based validation, and strong observability—shipping a knowledge assistant used daily by 50+ users while driving hallucinations near zero and materially improving latency and cost.”

“Backend engineer specializing in event-driven/serverless systems and Python/FastAPI APIs. Built a scalable PDF-to-structured-data pipeline on AWS (S3, Lambda, Step Functions, Textract, DynamoDB, SNS) with strong observability (p50/p90/p99) and reliability patterns (idempotency, retries/DLQs), and has led zero-downtime migrations using feature flags, dual writes, and incremental rollouts.”

“Built and deployed a production RAG-based multilingual analytics assistant for healthcare operations, enabling non-technical teams to query claims/EHR and risk metrics with grounded explanations. Demonstrates strong end-to-end LLM system engineering (retrieval tuning, re-ranking, hallucination controls, verification layers) plus workflow orchestration (Airflow/Composer/Step Functions) and stakeholder-driven iteration via prototypes and dashboards.”

“Unity VR developer with deep hands-on experience optimizing and debugging standalone-headset VR projects (including Android/IL2CPP and XR interaction systems), though not yet credited with a Meta Quest store ship. Built and shipped a mostly solo Unity top-down shooter (Sand Bullet) on Steam, owning core gameplay, AI, UI/input, saves, performance, and an AWS-connected companion app integration.”

“Backend-leaning full-stack engineer in fintech/payments who shipped an end-to-end Stripe payments + webhook system for a financial microservices platform, emphasizing ledger accuracy via idempotency, transactional writes, retries, and DLQs. Also delivered a real-time React/TypeScript payment status dashboard informed by user interviews, and improved production performance by 35% p95 latency through PostgreSQL tuning and Redis caching on AWS.”

“Backend/data engineer focused on production AWS systems: builds multi-tenant FastAPI services on ECS behind API Gateway/ALB with serverless orchestration (Lambda, SQS, Step Functions) and strong reliability practices (JWT/JWKS auth, idempotency, backoff retries, structured logging). Also delivers AWS Glue/PySpark ETL pipelines with schema/data-quality controls and has modernized legacy analytics logic into Python with parity validation; improved a key dashboard SQL query from ~12–25s to ~2–3s.”

“Built a production multi-agent RAG assistant using LangChain/LangGraph with OpenAI embeddings and FAISS, focusing on retrieval quality and latency (Redis caching, parallel retrieval, precomputed embeddings). Experienced orchestrating ETL/ML pipelines with Airflow and Databricks Workflows, and has delivered an AI assistant for business ops to extract insights from policy/compliance documents through close non-technical stakeholder collaboration.”

“Backend/data engineer with strong AWS production experience spanning FastAPI microservices and large-scale data pipelines. Has delivered containerized Python services on EKS with Terraform/Helm/GitHub Actions, implemented robust auth/secrets practices, and owned ETL reliability (Glue/S3/Redshift) including incident response and idempotent reruns. Demonstrated SQL tuning on 50M-record ETL workloads to remove SLA misses and improve reliability.”

“Built and owned a customer-facing Document Intelligence Service for legal contract analytics at Noasis Digital, delivering extraction/summarization with careful accuracy controls (confidence thresholds, versioned deployments, production logging). Also developed a React/TypeScript document review app and internal QA dashboard, and has hands-on microservices experience with async messaging (RabbitMQ), timeout tuning, and centralized structured logging for reliability at scale.”

“Backend/DevOps-leaning engineer who has owned a Python serverless platform on AWS (Lambda, DynamoDB, Step Functions), including complex multi-step business workflows with transaction-based consistency and robust failure handling. Also supported an on-prem SQL to Azure Data Lake migration by building and monitoring Python + Azure Data Factory ETL pipelines, and led GitOps-style CI/CD automation with GitHub Actions (tests, security scans, automated deployments).”

“Backend/data engineer with hands-on production experience building partner-facing Python APIs (FastAPI, Celery, Postgres/Redis) and AWS serverless data platforms (Lambda, SQS, Step Functions, Glue). Emphasizes reliability and governance—JWT tenant-scoped auth, secrets/config hygiene, data-quality quarantine, and incident ownership—plus measurable SQL tuning that eliminated timeouts and stabilized reporting workloads.”
