Vetted Observability Professionals

“Engineering leader/player-coach on a risk core transaction platform (payments/branded checkout) who led major migrations from a monolithic stack to microservices, including API contract redesign and performance improvements (reported ~500ms latency reduction). Experienced running high-stakes production incidents (upgrade-related outage/degradation) end-to-end with RCA and rollout-process changes, and has accelerated delivery via documentation/tooling (audit sign-off cycle reduced from ~3 sprints to ~1).”

“NYC-based startup founder/CTO who sold products to Omnicom and Sprinklr, then built an AI-powered cultural insights engine inside Omnicom using AWS Lambda + ML to process ~1M items/day and reached ~$1MM ARR in year one. Former senior leader at Sprinklr managing 200+ people globally, delivering enterprise martech solutions with SLAs and high-reliability social data pipelines (Twitter firehose).”

“McKinsey practitioner who built and deployed production LLM systems for consultants/clients, including a Power BI-integrated multi-agent chatbot (RAG + text-to-SQL + formatting) with custom Python orchestration, verification loops, and a 100+ case eval set achieving ~95% consistency. Also delivered a taxonomy-mapper agent that standardized inconsistent labeling for C-suite stakeholders, cutting a process from >2 weeks to <30 minutes through demos and business-focused communication.”

“Backend/data engineer with experience at AWS and Intuit building and operating production serverless systems and data pipelines. Delivered an internal AWS TV video-processing platform using Step Functions/Lambda/S3/DynamoDB with strong reliability and cost controls, and built Glue-based ETL for compliance/risk events (Kafka to partitioned Parquet). Also modernized legacy compliance systems into Java/Node event-driven services and has demonstrated measurable SQL tuning impact (200s to 20s).”

“Solutions/implementation-focused engineer with payments expertise (Adyen headless Magento integrations, 3DS components) who also builds and troubleshoots agentic LLM workflows using the OpenAI Agents SDK. Experienced in pre-sales technical validation and in tailoring live demos/workshops—e.g., pivoted a Quantum Metric workshop from custom JavaScript instrumentation to no-code analytics based on audience needs.”

“Platform/backend engineer focused on Kubernetes at scale: built a Java control-plane service for multi-region cluster provisioning/monitoring/upgrades using Kafka-driven async workers, and solved peak-load provisioning failures by eliminating blocking I/O and dynamically scaling consumers. Also shipped an LLM-assisted Kubernetes troubleshooting/remediation feature that pulls Prometheus logs/metrics into prompts and uses guardrails (confidence thresholds + human-in-the-loop) to prevent risky actions.”

“CTO-focused candidate with experience at foundations evaluating startups, including reviewing technical architectures and coaching teams to refine ideas for better platform fit and synergies. Prioritizes company culture and integrity when choosing leadership roles.”

“Robotics/ML engineer with internship experience at Valeo building a deep-learning prototype to replace parts of a legacy SLAM backend for autonomous parking, focused on making models run reliably in real time on embedded hardware (quantization/distillation + TensorRT). Also brings strong MLOps/deployment experience (Docker, Kubernetes on AWS EKS, CI via GitHub Actions) and has supported patent filing by explaining the technical approach to legal stakeholders.”

“Commercial/GTN leader with GCP experience managing multi-year, multi-megawatt AI/GPU infrastructure commitments, owning segment P&L and governance for take-or-pay/reserved capacity. Drove a major client partnership scaling ARR from $50M to $100M in 18 months by aligning Product/Engineering, GTM, and infra teams and building flexible, margin-protective commercial structures. Known for speeding hyperscaler procurement/security reviews (FedRAMP/SOC2, IAM, data residency) and operationalizing multi-region delivery with landing zones and IaC.”

“Engineering/technology leader with IBM Cloud experience leading large-scale infrastructure modernization from classic architecture to a standardized VPC/next-generation DC platform. Reports major outcomes including cutting region launch time from ~18 months to ~3 months and reducing operating costs by ~80% via automation, modular undercloud services, and platform standardization, while scaling a globally distributed org with clear service ownership and accountability.”

“Meta engineer who improved a critical revenue estimation dataset pipeline that was arriving ~6 days late—diagnosed via raw logs/lineage, redesigned legacy scans to only process the needed window, and shipped validation plus freshness/lag dashboards. Delivered ~50% latency reduction (to ~3 days) and regained adoption by running old/new pipelines in parallel with gated cutover and evidence-based customer communication. Applies incident-response rigor to real-time LLM/agentic workflow debugging and regularly runs developer demos/workshops.”

“Engineering leader who modernized and unified a fragmented product suite at Milestone via a multi-year cloud-native roadmap, delivering an MVP in three quarters and boosting team velocity by 40% through cross-functional squads. At Prometheum, led a trust-building hybrid architecture (AWS control plane + customer-hosted data plane) using Kubernetes to ensure sensitive enterprise data never left customer networks while remaining cloud-agnostic across providers.”

“Backend engineer who scaled a food delivery platform by migrating from a single-service architecture to Spring Cloud microservices with an API gateway and Kafka-based event-driven order pipeline. Reported outcomes include ~50% latency reduction, stable ~2K RPS throughput, and 99.8% uptime, with strong emphasis on safe migrations (dual writes, canaries, schema versioning) and security (JWT/RBAC/Postgres RLS).”
