Vetted CI/CD Professionals

“Game QA/automation tester with experience at Blizzard, Bossfight Entertainment, and Netflix, spanning manual-to-automation transitions, Selenium/C# UI automation, and CI/CD nightly reporting via TestRail. Known for an end-user-driven test strategy, strong defect isolation (including crash dumps), and cross-functional test planning that influenced multiplayer UX/design decisions.”

“Engineering leader/player-coach on a risk core transaction platform (payments/branded checkout) who led major migrations from a monolithic stack to microservices, including API contract redesign and performance improvements (reported ~500ms latency reduction). Experienced running high-stakes production incidents (upgrade-related outage/degradation) end-to-end with RCA and rollout-process changes, and has accelerated delivery via documentation/tooling (audit sign-off cycle reduced from ~3 sprints to ~1).”

“NYC-based startup founder/CTO who sold products to Omnicom and Sprinklr, then built an AI-powered cultural insights engine inside Omnicom using AWS Lambda + ML to process ~1M items/day and reached ~$1MM ARR in year one. Former senior leader at Sprinklr managing 200+ people globally, delivering enterprise martech solutions with SLAs and high-reliability social data pipelines (Twitter firehose).”

“McKinsey practitioner who built and deployed production LLM systems for consultants/clients, including a Power BI-integrated multi-agent chatbot (RAG + text-to-SQL + formatting) with custom Python orchestration, verification loops, and a 100+ case eval set achieving ~95% consistency. Also delivered a taxonomy-mapper agent that standardized inconsistent labeling for C-suite stakeholders, cutting a process from >2 weeks to <30 minutes through demos and business-focused communication.”

“Project lead who partners with PM and customers to gather requirements, adjust project plans, and deliver new functionality that drives customer satisfaction and revenue. Has experience building features end-to-end and presenting successful technical demos to engineering and management audiences; no stated experience with LLM/agentic systems.”

“Built and productionized a real-time enterprise RAG pipeline to improve factual accuracy and reduce LLM hallucinations by grounding responses in constantly changing internal knowledge bases (policies, manuals, FAQs). Experienced in orchestrating end-to-end ML workflows (Airflow/Kubernetes), handling messy multi-format data with schema enforcement (Pydantic/Hydra), and maintaining freshness via streaming incremental embeddings plus batch refresh. Also delivers applied ML solutions with non-technical teams (marketing/CRM) for segmentation and personalized engagement.”

“Embedded/robotics software engineer with Hyundai Motors experience who owned an AI-driven perception validation pipeline using a Transformer-based approach to generate stable synthetic in-cabin audio for autonomy/ASR testing, cutting downstream testing time by 50%+. Has hands-on ROS integration (IMU sensor streaming, inference, control nodes), MQTT-based distributed messaging, and cloud/container deployment experience (Docker, Node/Express, AWS, CI/CD).”

“Backend/data engineer with experience at AWS and Intuit building and operating production serverless systems and data pipelines. Delivered an internal AWS TV video-processing platform using Step Functions/Lambda/S3/DynamoDB with strong reliability and cost controls, and built Glue-based ETL for compliance/risk events (Kafka to partitioned Parquet). Also modernized legacy compliance systems into Java/Node event-driven services and has demonstrated measurable SQL tuning impact (200s to 20s).”

“Serverless-focused backend/data engineer who has delivered production Python services on AWS (FastAPI on Lambda/API Gateway) plus Glue-based ETL pipelines from S3 to relational databases. Strong in operational reliability (timeouts, retries, monitoring/alerts) and modernization work, including parallel-run parity validation for migrating legacy batch logic to Python services. Demonstrated measurable SQL tuning impact (15 min to under 3 min).”

“Former Amazon intern who owned an end-to-end computer vision system to detect package anomalies in fulfillment centers, from data collection/labeling to production deployment on AWS (EC2/S3) with a Streamlit live-monitoring dashboard. Also has ML-in-production experience deploying and updating a recommendation model on Kubernetes (Minikube) with CI/CD via GitHub Actions, plus prior SDE experience with Jenkins-based pipelines and on-prem to AWS migration work using Glue.”

“Engineering leader who built and scaled a distributed team (Serbia + US) to deliver an internal multi-tenant Kubernetes-based PaaS, moving a large org from manual ops-driven deployments to automated CI/CD with >99.97% uptime and 100% service adoption. Known for culture change (blameless post-mortems, clear intake via ticketing) and security-first platform practices (tenant isolation, Falco) supporting SOC2 compliance; also operates at exec level with stakeholder communication and fundraising.”

“Platform/backend engineer focused on Kubernetes at scale: built a Java control-plane service for multi-region cluster provisioning/monitoring/upgrades using Kafka-driven async workers, and solved peak-load provisioning failures by eliminating blocking I/O and dynamically scaling consumers. Also shipped an LLM-assisted Kubernetes troubleshooting/remediation feature that pulls Prometheus logs/metrics into prompts and uses guardrails (confidence thresholds + human-in-the-loop) to prevent risky actions.”

“CTO-focused candidate with experience at foundations evaluating startups, including reviewing technical architectures and coaching teams to refine ideas for better platform fit and synergies. Prioritizes company culture and integrity when choosing leadership roles.”

“Backend engineer with Tesla experience who redesigned vehicle registration into a step-based, region-configured workflow across 4–5 microservices, enabling partial saves and reducing customer drop-off. Has hands-on experience scaling and securing Python/FastAPI APIs (OAuth2/JWT, CORS), migrating cold data from MySQL to MongoDB via Kubernetes CronJobs, and implementing RBAC/RLS with Supabase + Postgres.”

“Robotics/ML engineer with internship experience at Valeo building a deep-learning prototype to replace parts of a legacy SLAM backend for autonomous parking, focused on making models run reliably in real time on embedded hardware (quantization/distillation + TensorRT). Also brings strong MLOps/deployment experience (Docker, Kubernetes on AWS EKS, CI via GitHub Actions) and has supported patent filing by explaining the technical approach to legal stakeholders.”

“Engineering/technology leader with IBM Cloud experience leading large-scale infrastructure modernization from classic architecture to a standardized VPC/next-generation DC platform. Reports major outcomes including cutting region launch time from ~18 months to ~3 months and reducing operating costs by ~80% via automation, modular undercloud services, and platform standardization, while scaling a globally distributed org with clear service ownership and accountability.”
