Vetted Site Reliability Engineering Professionals

“DevOps/SRE focused on cloud-based distributed systems, with strong hands-on Kubernetes production experience (microservices deployments, Helm, probes, resource tuning, CI/CD and Docker build standardization). Demonstrated end-to-end troubleshooting across application, infrastructure, and networking layers—e.g., isolating degraded storage via node disk I/O metrics and restoring performance by draining the node and replacing the volume. Builds Python automation for operational reliability, including scheduled Kubernetes secrets rotation integrated with an external secret manager.”

“Player-coach backend leader at PostLo who led a major backend architecture upgrade to enable AI-driven features by separating transactional systems from AI workloads (vector embeddings/image validation) and adding async processing for heavy jobs. Also owned production reliability improvements (query/index optimization, workload isolation, monitoring and load testing) and translated an ambiguous retention goal into a shipped cashback rewards feature with auditable transactions.”

“LLMOps-focused technical leader who took an LLM use case from prototype to production for a non-technical customer by combining trust-building and structured enablement with a robust AWS/Kubernetes-based MLOps stack. Built observability and rollback mechanisms (Grafana + MLflow) to troubleshoot in real time, and scaled delivery by hiring a 5-person team while partnering with sales to manage expectations and drive adoption across departments.”

“Backend/data engineering player-coach on a UEBA cloud security analytics platform who standardized MLOps and detection development for 180+ detections, cutting ship time from 6–7 weeks to ~3 weeks while reducing false positives. Proven at operating large-scale streaming + Spark systems (200K+ events/sec, 100+ TB/day), driving major reliability/cost improvements, and leading incident response and team execution through GA.”

“Engineering leader/player-coach with recent hands-on work delivering an agentic AI MVP on Amazon Bedrock (conversational UI + supervisor agent routing between internal knowledge and external sources). Previously drove large-scale data platform cost optimization at Twitter, saving ~$3M–$5M annually, and has owned production incidents end-to-end with a focus on analytics/monitoring improvements and team coaching.”

“Engineering leader (ActiveCampaign, Yalo) with a track record of scaling both systems and orgs: grew an engineering team from 90+ to 200+ (30+ scrum teams) while re-architecting a marketing automation platform from batch to near real-time. Led major infrastructure shifts (RabbitMQ to Kafka, multi-region redundancy) and reports outcomes including 600%+ throughput gains, 99.99% uptime, and business growth from ~80K to 185K customers with revenue surpassing $200M over ~3 years.”

“Engineering/product leader with repeated experience defining roadmaps and delivering platform migrations across SaaS and enterprise contexts. Scaled an education system from two districts to 2M+ students statewide, and led an Elasticsearch-based architecture for an internal Disney product serving ~100K employees. Known for rigorous execution (RAID/OKRs/sprints), strong stakeholder communication (weekly AI summaries), and empowering teams via end-to-end ownership and customer-connected development.”
