Vetted Elastic Stack (ELK) Professionals

“Backend engineer with experience modernizing high-traffic subscription and payment systems (TCS) by moving to event-driven Spring Boot microservices with Kafka, adding idempotency/state management to eliminate duplicate processing. Built and scaled FastAPI services for AI automation workflows (360DMMC) with versioned contracts, JWT security, and strong observability, and has led live refactors using feature flags, parallel runs, and data reconciliation.”

“IBM Power/AIX engineer who has owned a 150+ LPAR AIX 7.x estate with VIOS/HMC/vHMC and PowerHA in production, including real outage and failover recoveries. Also brings modern DevOps/IaC experience—built Jenkins pipelines deploying to AKS and implemented Terraform on AWS with remote state, locking, and drift management.”

“Full-stack/AI engineer who has shipped production systems spanning real-time analytics dashboards and an internal LLM-powered knowledge assistant. Experienced with RAG pipelines (embeddings/vector DB, semantic retrieval, query rewriting) plus evaluation loops and guardrails, and builds observable Kafka-based data pipelines monitored with Prometheus/Grafana.”

“Cloud/infrastructure engineer with strong production operations background across AWS, Azure, and Kubernetes, supporting 30+ enterprise workloads for ~40,000 users. Demonstrated incident leadership (hybrid AKS-to-AWS routing outage) with a reported 60% MTTR reduction, plus hands-on CI/CD (Jenkins) and Terraform-based IaC for AWS (VPC/EC2/EKS). Lacks direct IBM Power/AIX/PowerHA experience but emphasizes transferable ops and troubleshooting skills.”

“Full-stack engineer with strong DevOps/AWS experience who ships end-to-end React/TypeScript + Node/Python systems and operates them in production. Built an LLM-assisted recommendations workflow for a SaaS product with robust reliability controls (schema-validated JSON outputs, fallbacks, caching, monitoring) and measured impact via adoption, time saved, and override rates; also experienced delivering MVPs fast in early-stage startup ambiguity.”

“Backend engineer experienced in evolving high-scale legacy on-prem systems into cloud-native, event-driven microservices on AWS/Kubernetes (noted peak traffic ~1.5M QPS). Strong focus on reliability engineering and operational excellence—SLO-driven observability, GitOps/canary rollouts, chaos testing, and preventing cascading failures (e.g., retry-storm mitigation).”

“Backend/data engineer who has built production AI video generation services on AWS using a hybrid serverless + container architecture (FastAPI, Lambda, ECS, Postgres/Redis) with strong reliability practices (auth, retries/timeouts, structured logging, CloudWatch + Slack alerting). Also delivered AWS Glue ETL pipelines with schema evolution handling and modernized a legacy SAS healthcare reporting workflow to Python with parity validation and parallel-run migration.”

“Built and productionized a RAG-based semantic search system for video-derived data, focusing on measurable success metrics (p95 latency, reliability, cost/request) and strong observability (prompt versions, retrieved docs, tool calls, token usage). Experienced in diagnosing real-time issues in LLM/agentic workflows and in supporting go-to-market efforts through tailored technical demos, rapid POCs, and post-close onboarding.”

“Backend engineer with production experience at KeyBank building high-volume Java/Spring Boot services on Azure with PostgreSQL/Oracle, including async job ingestion and tracking. Demonstrates strong reliability/performance debugging (HikariCP pool exhaustion, DB contention) and has shipped an LLM-powered data analysis/summarization feature with robust production guardrails (validation, shadow testing, deterministic fallbacks, audit logs).”
