Vetted AWS Step Functions Professionals

“Backend/data engineer focused on production ML/LLM systems: built a real-time FastAPI inference API on Kubernetes with strong reliability patterns (timeouts, idempotent retries, centralized error handling). Delivered AWS platforms using EKS + Lambda with GitHub Actions/Helm CI/CD and built Glue-based ETL from S3/Kafka into Snowflake with schema evolution and data-quality controls; also modernized legacy analytics/recommendation workflows into Python services with safe, feature-flagged cutovers.”

Senior Generative AI Implementation Consultant specializing in RAG and agentic AI on cloud

Bay Area, CA3y exp

“LLM/RAG practitioner who built an AWS-based enterprise document search and summarization platform with RBAC and scaled it to 10K+ users, solving relevance issues via contextual chunking and hybrid retrieval. Also designed agentic workflows for a telecom forecast-validation use case using sub-agents, tool APIs, and strict context management, and has proven pre-sales influence (supported a $300K manufacturing deal with a roadmap-driven pitch).”

“Built and deployed a production LLM-powered RAG document intelligence system used by non-technical enterprise stakeholders, cutting document search time by 40%+ while improving answer consistency. Demonstrates strong MLOps/data workflow orchestration (Airflow, AWS Step Functions, managed schedulers across GCP/Azure) and a metrics-driven approach to reliability, evaluation, and cost/latency optimization with guardrails and observability.”

“Amazon Prime Video backend engineer who built and operated high-traffic Python/FastAPI services and AWS-native data/batch systems. Demonstrates strong production reliability and incident ownership (CloudWatch/X-Ray), plus measurable performance wins (8s to <200ms query latency, ~40% CPU reduction) and cost-focused architectures (Lambda + ECS/Fargate with Fargate Spot).”

“Backend/platform engineer with deep AWS experience who built a high-reliability ingestion platform (Lambda + Step Functions + DynamoDB) that became the single source of truth for training/qualification certification data across an AU region, handling high-volume async updates with strong consistency controls. Also led a major API migration from Lambda to ECS/Fargate to eliminate cold starts and increase throughput, and has hands-on EKS/Kubernetes operations plus Kafka partitioning/ordering expertise.”
