Vetted Event-Driven Architecture Professionals

“Player-coach engineer/lead on a high-scale research integrity platform ("Lighthouse") that flags fraud/manipulation signals across ~3M academic manuscripts per year. Owns architecture decisions (ADRs), implements across Go/Java/React services, and introduced NLP (SciBERT embeddings + human-in-the-loop) to assess out-of-context citations while also handling production incidents with a data-consistency-first approach.”

“Backend/full-stack engineer (Amazon experience) who built an AWS-based integration testing platform using Flask, ECS, Docker, and CloudWatch—cutting 1000+ test cases from ~5 hours to ~30 minutes while improving log visibility for non-engineering users. Also led a zero-downtime EU region migration with rigorous ORR testing, and built a Kinesis/Firehose/S3 + Glue/Spark replay mechanism for resilient data recovery. Side project: reproducible, cost-efficient LLM hosting platform on EKS using CDK and Karpenter for scale-to-zero.”

“Backend engineer with production experience building a high-scale notification pipeline (~20M/day) using Java/Dropwizard with Kafka and Azure Queue, including DLQ/poison-message handling and the outbox pattern for reliability. Also led a batch-based migration of Yammer Messaging user data from PostgreSQL to Azure Cosmos DB for global multi-region scale, addressing throttling and network failures via retries, escalation policies, and dynamic throughput tuning.”

“iOS-focused engineer who led feature development for Amazon Books/Kindle (e.g., Series & Story So Far recaps, Kindle Memories) and introduced pure Swift packages while building sync and content download systems. Also has full-stack experience (React/TypeScript + Node with REST/GraphQL) and strong AWS operations (CDK/CI-CD, CloudWatch, canaries, autoscaling), plus founder experience at GLXY.ai shipping an early hardware MVP (weight sensors) under tight constraints.”

“Full-stack engineer with Uber experience building finance/billing reconciliation systems: shipped and owned an internal operations dashboard (Next.js App Router/TypeScript) that cut investigation time from hours to minutes and improved load time from ~6–7s to <2s. Deep in Postgres modeling and performance (sub-200ms optimized queries) plus durable event-driven workflow orchestration with idempotency, retries/backoff, DLQs, and reconciliation jobs; also has seed-to-Series C startup experience emphasizing end-to-end ownership.”

“Software engineer with strong AWS production experience, including an end-to-end historical backfill system exporting ~10PB of CloudWatch logs into a data lake using Step Functions/Kinesis/Lambda/Firehose/Glue. Emphasizes reliability and operability (DynamoDB checkpointing, monitoring dashboards, CI/CD with canary tests) and has also built customer-facing UI work for the Visa Developer Portal using Angular + Spring Boot, plus React/Redux frontend work.”

“Senior data/technology executive who stays hands-on: currently building a Go micro-kernel orchestration layer for medical AI agents to boost concurrency and enforce HIPAA/PHI controls, achieving 26x throughput on migrated workloads. Has led large-scale transformations across healthcare and financial services, including a 45-day data warehouse rebuild at Elara Caring and a data/ML roadmap at Acelity credited with $230M in annual revenue impact prior to 3M acquisition.”

“CTO-level leader with deep insurtech and cloud security/SaaS experience who has repeatedly scaled global engineering orgs and delivered high-velocity roadmaps. Most recently led Delos Insurance Solutions to launch new homeowners programs for wildfire-prone regions every 3–4 weeks while meeting DOI/SLA requirements, driving $135M GWP and $250M capacity and reaching cash-flow positive. Also led major scalability re-architecture at CloudPassage (Postgres to Cassandra + Kafka) and built a large Estonia-based engineering hub at Cybercube.”
