Executive Technology Architect specializing in IT/OT convergence and industrial cybersecurity

Ventura, CA29y exp

“Entrepreneurial technical leader with ~3 decades in R&D/startup environments and proprietary consulting across government and private industry. As Sr Electrical Controls Engineer/IT Director at V-Grid Energy Systems, redesigned gasification automation instrumentation by creating custom PCB multiplexing and ladder-logic drivers, avoiding an estimated ~$2M in CAPEX and reducing per-machine cost to under $200—positioning him well for CTO roles supporting scalable new ventures.”

“Backend engineer focused on real-time, event-driven distributed systems (Node.js/TypeScript) with strict latency and reliability requirements. Deep hands-on experience debugging concurrency issues and designing resilient workflows (idempotency, circuit breakers, compensating actions) with strong observability; familiar with ROS/ROS2 concepts and confident ramping into robotics integrations.”

“Backend engineer who rebuilt and refactored high-traffic systems at Phenom using Java/Spring Boot/Play and also designs Python/FastAPI services. Focused on measurable reliability and performance gains through DB/query optimization, async processing, and strong observability, with disciplined rollout practices (feature flags, parallel runs, rollback) and security patterns including token auth and row-level security.”

“Backend/data engineer experienced building enterprise community-platform services for high-traffic global clients, using Python (FastAPI/Django) on Docker/Kubernetes with PostgreSQL/Redis. Has delivered AWS EKS + Terraform/CI-CD deployments with strong security practices (Secrets Manager/SSM, IAM/IRSA) and has hands-on ETL (AWS Glue), legacy modernization, and incident ownership with measurable performance gains (~30% faster queries).”

Executive Technology Leader specializing in distributed systems and multi-cloud infrastructure

Denver, Colorado, United States9y exp

“Early-stage builder who blends deep technical product work with go-to-market execution: created developer-focused platform tooling (Rust/Node/React) and at Harper moved from customer success into sales/partnerships, leading an Akamai partnership that ultimately helped close Walmart. Currently building a distributed application platform in Rust and iterating on macro-based abstractions to make Rust feel as approachable as Node.js; has not yet closed a seed round and is seeking a trusted operator counterpart.”

Senior Electrical Engineer specializing in power systems and applied research

Tyler, TX10y exp

“Electrical power systems candidate with experience discussing data center and industrial distribution topics including 33kV AIS/GIS switchgear, transformers, relays, UPS/PDU zoning, and ETAP/SKM studies. Notably cited reducing arc flash levels by 60% through relay and design adjustments, improving maintenance safety and lowering PPE requirements.”

Senior Full-Stack Developer specializing in JavaScript, cloud microservices, and scalable web apps

St. Thomas, Canada11y exp

“Frontend engineer who has led end-to-end warehouse and support tooling products, including a Raspberry Pi/Arduino-driven sorting UI that guides staff via bin LEDs. Built a React+TypeScript internal support dashboard with real-time order/shipping updates and AI-assisted ticket response suggestions (integrating models like OpenAI, Grok, Veo, and Google Gemini for image understanding), plus a voice-command workflow to create/search tickets hands-free.”

“Full-stack engineer who has shipped and operated generative-AI chat/QA features end-to-end, including a RAG-based pipeline with guardrails and cost/latency monitoring in production. Experienced with React/TypeScript + Node/Postgres architectures, Dockerized deployments to AWS (EC2) via GitHub Actions CI/CD, and building reliable ingestion/ETL systems with idempotency, backfills, and reconciliation.”

Mid-level DevOps Engineer specializing in AWS, Azure, Kubernetes, and GenAI infrastructure

Walnut Creek, CA4y exp

“Database/platform engineer with stronger hands-on experience in AWS and Azure than GCP, but able to speak credibly about cloud database architecture, automation, and reliability engineering. They led an on-prem MySQL to RDS/DynamoDB migration, built Terraform/Python-based zero-touch database operations, and described a performance incident where latency dropped from 2s to under 300ms while supporting 2x traffic.”

Junior Cloud & AI Infrastructure Engineer specializing in Agentic AI and AWS

San Jose, CA2y exp

“Built and deployed a production AI career-advice agent designed to combat unreliable/generic LLM guidance by grounding outputs in retrieval-first RAG over resumes/job/hiring data, with multi-step reasoning, structured memory, and evidence-only prompting to reduce hallucinations. Implemented the system with LangChain/Python and deployed on AWS as scalable microservices orchestrated via REST and asynchronous calls, iterating closely with career coaches and students.”

“Cloud infrastructure/DevOps engineer focused on AWS/Azure production environments, with hands-on experience running EKS-based platforms, Terraform-driven IaC, and secure Jenkins/GitLab CI pipelines. Has led real-world migrations from EC2 to Kubernetes using blue/green cutovers and executed multi-AZ failover testing with documented same-day recovery and no data loss; does not have direct IBM Power/AIX ownership experience.”

“Early-career automation/workflow builder who has owned small-scale end-to-end implementations (discovery through stabilization), using tools like Zapier, Google Sheets, and Airtable with strong validation and troubleshooting habits. Built and tested a production-style RAG application on AWS Bedrock (S3 + Knowledge Bases + embeddings + OpenSearch + retrieve-and-generate) with a Streamlit UI to deliver more grounded, context-aware document Q&A.”
