Vetted Serverless Architecture Professionals

“AWS-focused Python backend/data engineer who builds production analytics APIs and ETL pipelines using API Gateway, Lambda, Step Functions, ECS, Glue, S3, and RDS. Strong in operational reliability and performance tuning (including SQL indexing/partitioning) and has modernized legacy SAS statistical processing into validated Python services with phased rollouts and stakeholder sign-off.”

“Repeat founder/CTO with hands-on experience raising capital from friends and family, angels, corporate sources, federal grants, private equity, and venture capital. Built a startup in a software business incubator, later sold the company, and went on to serve as an Engineering Manager at the acquirer inside the Plug and Play accelerator ecosystem.”

Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in full-stack cloud and agentic AI systems

San Jose, CA3y exp

“Backend engineer with hands-on ownership of production systems across maritime tracking, HR tech, and AI-powered document workflows. They combine strong operational instincts with measurable impact—cutting API latency from 10s to 3s, improving query performance by 60%, reducing deployment time by 50%, and driving 70% infrastructure cost savings with serverless design.”

“Cloud consulting veteran building DragnCloud, an agentic cloud infrastructure builder aimed at teams outgrowing Heroku/Supabase who need complex setups (data pipelines, custom LLM hosting, multi-tier apps) without hiring consultants. Has SaaS background and has served as a Fractional CTO for funded companies; currently focused on landing the first 20 customers and expanding automation into higher-value workflows.”

Mid-level Generative AI Engineer specializing in LLM agents and RAG applications

Boston, MA4y exp

“GenAI builder and technical lead with ~2 years of hands-on production experience, including GENIE (a GenAI sandbox for ~44,000 Massachusetts public-sector employees) and A-IEP, a multilingual platform helping parents understand complex IEP documents (cut processing from ~15 minutes to ~2 and used by 1,000+ parents). Strong in RAG/agentic architectures, AWS serverless + Step Functions orchestration, and rigorous evaluation/guardrails for reliable real-world deployments.”

Senior Full-Stack & AI Engineer specializing in scalable web platforms and LLM automation

Bengaluru, India4y exp

“Built a production agentic AI assistant in Python using Playwright plus Google Gemini’s vision capabilities to automatically document and execute UI workflows step-by-step, reducing developer time spent on trivial documentation/knowledge transfer. Also built an Apache Airflow ETL pipeline and has experience evaluating AI agents with human-in-the-loop methods, plus successfully communicated a vision-model-based CMS analytics PoC to non-technical university stakeholders and proposed it to Academic Technology with cost-savings rationale.”

“Backend/platform engineer with strong ownership of production systems, including a full Azure migration from a VM-based monolith to a containerized, event-driven microservices architecture. They combine cloud infrastructure, LLM/RAG optimization, and pragmatic stakeholder management, with measurable wins including 90% infra cost reduction, faster deployments, and significantly improved latency and token efficiency.”

“Software engineer currently building for a wealth management platform, with hands-on ownership across React/TypeScript front ends, Azure serverless backends, and SQL data systems. Stands out for turning hackweek concepts into production features, building observability infrastructure from scratch, and delivering measurable gains in latency, uptime, incident response, and client satisfaction.”

“New grad candidate with graduate research experience building a multi-agent RAG pipeline from scratch, including worker-coach orchestration and an evaluation framework. Most notably, they improved structural similarity from 67% to 98% by designing validation and retry logic to reduce hallucinations, showing strong practical depth in agentic AI systems.”

“Backend/data engineer with strong production experience across Python microservices (FastAPI) and AWS serverless/data platforms (Lambda, API Gateway, Glue, Redshift). Demonstrates reliability and incident ownership (rate limits, retries/circuit breakers, monitoring) and has delivered measurable SQL performance gains (12–15s to <800ms, ~60% CPU reduction). Seeking fully remote work and not open to relocation/onsite meetings.”

“Full-stack engineer focused on data-heavy platforms, building Spring Boot microservices and Angular/React dashboards end-to-end. Has hands-on experience improving large-scale API and UI performance (including cutting 8–10s response times) and ensuring cross-service consistency using Kafka, idempotent consumers, and strong validation/transaction patterns on AWS with CI/CD and observability (Prometheus/ELK).”

“Founding engineer with strong end-to-end product delivery across IoT + mobile + serverless cloud: built firmware for a Bluetooth-connected device (ESP32), a native Swift iOS app, and an AWS serverless backend (API Gateway/Lambda/SQS/SNS/DynamoDB) including payments via Stripe. Also shipped a separate startup product in 6 months: a React visual tool that generated HTTP/REST APIs with a Django backend, admin panel, and a code-generating CLI.”
