Vetted OpenTelemetry Professionals

“Open-source JavaScript contributor focused on performance and maintainability in data visualization libraries—refactored legacy ES5 into modular ES6, added tests/docs, and delivered ~30% faster load times with positive community adoption. Also optimized a React dashboard (~40% load-time reduction) and took ownership in an ambiguous AI product initiative by setting milestones, standing up an initial ML pipeline, and shipping a prototype in ~6 weeks that became the basis for production.”

“Cloud/Kubernetes-focused production engineer with experience running 99.95% uptime platforms across AWS/Azure/GCP. Strong in incident response and performance troubleshooting (including a 30% MTTR reduction), and in building secure CI/CD and Terraform-based IaC for AKS/GKE microservices with robust change controls and rollback practices. Notably does not have direct IBM Power/AIX/VIOS/HMC or PowerHA/HACMP ownership.”

Senior Software Engineer specializing in Java/Spring Boot microservices and AWS payments systems

Dallas, TX6y exp

“Senior software engineer with Amazon experience who owned end-to-end improvements to a real-time payment authorization service, rebuilding it as a reactive Spring WebFlux microservice with saga orchestration and Kafka event streaming, deployed on AWS EKS with strong observability. Also built React+TypeScript and Node/Express full-stack workflow apps (onboarding, campaign management, admin review) and has experience shipping quickly in ambiguous startup environments while maintaining reliability and data correctness.”

Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in backend systems and real-time analytics

California, USA5y exp

“Full-stack engineer at BigCommerce who combines customer-facing deployment ownership with hands-on AI/LLM systems work. Built and launched merchant analytics and predictive inventory workflows using React, TypeScript, FastAPI, Kafka, AWS, and RAG-style architectures, and has real production experience debugging non-deterministic AI issues caused by data pipeline freshness and event-ordering problems.”

“Backend/data engineer who builds production FastAPI microservices and AWS serverless/Glue pipelines for SMS analytics and marketing segmentation. Led a legacy batch modernization into modular services (FastAPI + Glue/Athena + ClickHouse) using shadow-mode parity checks, feature flags, and incremental rollout. Demonstrated measurable performance wins (12s to sub-second SQL; ~40% CPU reduction) and strong incident ownership with proactive schema-drift prevention.”

“Backend engineer with hands-on manufacturing/production-systems experience at Wallbox, improving the Supernova charger rework process by streamlining part-number/component updates. Strong in building modular Python/Flask services with clean integration layers (Cosmos DB, NetSuite, traceability/label printing), plus deep SQLAlchemy/Postgres performance tuning. Also brings scalable AI/ML integration and deployment experience (OpenAI/Hugging Face/TensorFlow Serving, Docker/FastAPI/Nginx) and multi-tenant schema isolation with RBAC.”

Mid-Level Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in observability and developer tools

San Francisco, CA4y exp

“Product-leaning full-stack engineer (65% product / 35% infra) who built core components of the LightFoot feature flag platform: end-to-end client/server SDKs with OpenTelemetry-based observability and a React+TypeScript UI for flag management and metrics dashboards. Strong focus on performance (memoization/lazy loading/caching), reliable API design, and Postgres modeling for read-heavy flag evaluation workloads, with AWS production experience (EC2/ECS/Lambda/API Gateway/VPC).”

Mid-level Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in Java/Spring microservices on AWS

Redwood, CA4y exp

“Built and shipped a production LLM-powered fraud investigation agent using RAG to generate transaction explanations and draft analyst reports. Emphasizes production robustness (fallbacks, strict structured outputs, async orchestration, monitoring/evals) and reports measurable impact: ~12% precision lift and ~80 high-priority alerts per week with reduced manual effort.”

Senior AI/ML Engineer specializing in GenAI and cloud platforms

Colorado Springs, CO10y exp

“ML/AI engineer with hands-on experience turning research-style RAG concepts into production underwriting systems at Prudential Financial. Built an internal document intelligence assistant end-to-end with strong monitoring, safety, and evaluation practices, driving a 38% faster review process and 31% better retrieval accuracy. Also improved platform engineering at VivSoft by standardizing Python-based ML deployment across 60+ models.”

“Backend/data engineer with hands-on production experience building reliable Python FastAPI services on Kubernetes and delivering AWS EKS + Terraform CI/CD with strong secrets isolation and rollback practices. Also built AWS Glue ETL pipelines into S3/Redshift with schema-evolution handling and data-quality controls, modernized legacy analytics into modular Python services with parallel-run parity validation, and has demonstrated SQL tuning impact (minutes to seconds) plus ownership of batch pipeline incidents end-to-end.”
