Vetted Incident Response Professionals

“Backend/data engineer with experience on large-scale consumer platforms (Google and Meta), building high-traffic Python microservices (REST/gRPC) on Kubernetes with strong reliability/observability practices. Delivered AWS container-based deployments with CI/CD and IaC, and built AWS Glue ETL pipelines on S3 with schema evolution and data quality controls; also has demonstrated SQL tuning impact (15% latency reduction) and incident ownership for batch pipelines.”

“18-year Google veteran who managed and grew top customer investments, including Rocket Mortgage’s Google Search program—scaling spend from ~$60M/year to $170M/year. Led adoption of ROAS bidding and broad match through rigorous experimentation and forecasting, driving an additional $14.5M spend in 1H 2024 despite a challenging mortgage market.”

“Engineering leader/player-coach who built and validated a preference-based recommendation engine using clustering, including generating test data to evaluate how clusters evolve over time. Has SRE/DevOps experience and has owned production incidents end-to-end (logging-driven RCA and refactoring patterns that failed at large data scale). Emphasizes quality and platform stability via unit, integration, and load testing, and has managed performance via regular 1:1s and PIPs.”

“IBM Power/AIX infrastructure engineer who has owned large-scale Power9/AIX 7.x estates across primary/DR (VIOS/HMC/vHMC) and has deep hands-on experience with DLPAR, shared processor pool governance, and PowerHA recovery. Also brings modern DevOps/IaC capability—built Azure DevOps/GitHub CI/CD for Terraform + Kubernetes/Helm with strong security controls and resolved a production Terraform state-lock failure by redesigning backend locking and pipeline concurrency.”

“Startup-focused infrastructure/security leader who stepped into head of engineering and re-platformed an entire product end-to-end in 3 months to meet launch. In crypto/fintech, recognized the market-data system as an ETL/data product and rebuilt it as a separable, securely accessible platform—prompting inbound interest within a week—while advocating an open-source-first observability stack (Prometheus/Grafana/Loki) to avoid vendor lock-in.”

“Software engineer focused on personalization and data/ML infrastructure who built a GenAI/LLM-driven carousel ranking system end-to-end, delivering a reported 6–7% order-rate lift. Also designed large-scale personalization ETL (15PB for ~100M users) and created a custom Airflow operator to integrate with Databricks under enterprise version constraints, with hands-on on-call and data-quality reliability improvements.”

“Player-coach engineer/leader with experience at Twist Bioscience and Series B startup Vida Health, owning high-impact platform work across frontend and backend. Delivered a large-scale permissions migration to Okta affecting ~100,000 users and led reliability/process improvements (weekly releases, dedicated QA/dev environments, incident response with RCA) in high-growth environments.”
