Vetted Containerization Professionals

“Cloud consulting veteran building DragnCloud, an agentic cloud infrastructure builder aimed at teams outgrowing Heroku/Supabase who need complex setups (data pipelines, custom LLM hosting, multi-tier apps) without hiring consultants. Has SaaS background and has served as a Fractional CTO for funded companies; currently focused on landing the first 20 customers and expanding automation into higher-value workflows.”

“Robotics software engineer focused on production-grade autonomous mobile robot (AMR) navigation in warehouse-style environments, with deep hands-on ROS2/ROS Noetic experience across SLAM, AMCL/NDT LiDAR localization, and Nav2 integration. Strong in real-time debugging and performance tuning using rosbag-driven regression workflows, plus containerized deployment (Docker/Compose) and distributed robot/edge-device communication via MQTT/REST.”

“Backend engineer who built an agentic LLM system for private equity/finance that answers questions over enterprise contracts and documents using a vector-db RAG pipeline. Differentiator is a trust-focused citation framework (with highlighted source text) to reduce hallucinations in high-stakes workflows, plus strong DevOps experience deploying microservices on Kubernetes with Helm/GitOps and building Kafka real-time pipelines.”

“Backend/data engineer with hands-on production experience building Python (FastAPI/Flask) data enrichment services secured with Okta OAuth2 and monitored via Splunk/Dynatrace. Has delivered AWS event-driven and data-migration solutions (Lambda + Kafka to EKS; Glue from on-prem Oracle to S3/data lake) and modernized Informatica match/merge logic to cloud services using parallel-run parity validation and stakeholder sign-off.”

“Backend engineer (IpserLab) who owned Python services for a production quiz/analytics platform, focusing on reliability and low-latency behavior under peak load. Hands-on with Kubernetes + Docker deployments and GitHub Actions CI/CD in a GitOps-style workflow, including solving configuration drift and enabling fast rollbacks. Also implemented Kafka-based event streaming with idempotent consumers and strong observability (lag tracking, structured logging, alerting).”

“Cloud/SRE-style engineer at TDS supporting revenue-critical transportation SaaS platforms on AWS/GCP with Kubernetes. Has hands-on experience leading high-impact production work including DDoS mitigation, zero-downtime MSSQL→PostgreSQL migration using CDC, and building secure GitHub Actions + ArgoCD delivery pipelines and Terraform-based GKE infrastructure.”

“CTO/Chief Architect who rebuilt an IoT platform from a fragile legacy stack into an AWS-based, multi-tenant cloud-native system supporting 50k+ connected devices and 10M+ monthly events, then layered in real-time data pipelines and ML anomaly detection. Known for tightly aligning roadmaps and OKRs to business KPIs (onboarding speed, uptime, velocity) and for scaling teams into domain-focused pods; previously led a shift from LAMP to event-driven Node.js microservices using MQTT and message queues.”

“Robotics software engineer with deep ROS2 experience who owned the perception stack for an automated C. elegans manipulation system—building YOLO-based worm segmentation plus OCR label reading and integrating it into a MoveIt2 pipeline with real-time latency constraints. Also deploying ROS2 on an AgileX Tracer with ZED depth camera for vision-based person following and working on SLAM/sensor fusion, with additional production-style ML deployment experience (Dockerized FastAPI + PyTorch on AWS EC2 with CI/CD).”

“DevSecOps/AWS infrastructure engineer at Madison Logic who owns a 15-account AWS footprint and treats nearly all AWS resources as code (Terraform/CloudFormation). Led a CI/CD platform migration (Bitbucket → GitLab + GitHub Actions) supporting WordPress and containerized microservices, improving release frequency to weekly/daily, and has hands-on production incident response experience on ECS Fargate using Datadog with fast rollback via immutable ECR tags and task definition revisions.”

“Backend-focused Python engineer who owned high-traffic internal services end-to-end (FastAPI/Django) including REST/GraphQL APIs, PostgreSQL optimization, async task processing via SQS, and full CI/CD. Strong Kubernetes-on-EKS and GitOps (ArgoCD + Helm) experience, plus Kafka real-time streaming work and phased cloud-to-on-prem migration support.”
