Vetted Blue-Green Deployment Professionals

Bennett Smith

Screened

Senior Full-Stack Engineer specializing in cloud-native microservices and React

Los Angeles, CA14y exp

“Backend/data engineer with strong AWS production experience spanning high-traffic FastAPI APIs (Postgres/Redis/Kafka) and serverless+container deployments (Lambda/ECS) managed via Terraform and CI/CD. Has built Glue-based data lake ETL (S3 Parquet, Athena/Redshift) with schema drift/data quality controls, modernized legacy batch systems via parallel-run parity validation, and demonstrated measurable SQL performance wins (60–90s down to 3–5s).”

Durgaprasad G

Screened

Mid-level AI/ML Engineer specializing in LLM infrastructure, RAG, and agentic systems

New York City, NY3y exp

“Stripe engineer who owned and unified multiple team RAG systems into a shared production platform used by 200+ internal operators, deployed on EKS with Kafka ingestion and hybrid retrieval. Drove measurable business outcomes including <400ms latency, ~35% inference cost reduction, ~25% accuracy lift via fine-tuning, and real-time auto-approval of 80%+ merchant compliance applications through strong observability and reliability patterns.”

“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).”

“Built and owned end-to-end deployment and AI support workflows spanning CI/CD, Kubernetes, Terraform, and LLM/RAG systems. Stands out for combining DevOps delivery with production AI operations, including secure tool-calling, incident debugging, retrieval quality controls, and validation-first document ingestion for messy real-world inputs.”
