Vetted Test Automation Professionals

“Senior engineering/CTO-level leader with hands-on delivery of serverless, event-driven cloud governance platforms (deployed across multiple GE business units) and experience building adaptable usage-based billing at UserTesting. Has advised startups (including CaseText during YC) and supported fundraising and acquisition due diligence, including investor materials for a smart cooler custody management system presented to BARDA during Operation Warp Speed.”

“Senior Director-level engineering leader from Zelle who built a multi-year cloud and use-case expansion roadmap (e.g., SMB and brokerage funding) aligned to an aggressive growth target (from $1.2T to $5T in 5 years). Experienced scaling an engineering org from ~25–30 people into domain-driven pods and leading audit/compliance remediation (OCC, SOC 2, PCI) through security and infrastructure reengineering, including multi-region/multi-zone architecture.”

“Former Walmart Director of Software Engineering who left in March 2025 to build products for clients. Recently delivered an LLM/RAG-based UNSPSC classification solution for an MRO client using a multi-stage retrieval + web search + prompt-engineering workflow, and has led large-scale retail forecasting initiatives and high-severity cloud-migration incidents end-to-end.”

“Safety-critical firmware validation engineer with Tesla autonomous vehicle experience who built Python-based HIL/SIL automation and dashboards, cutting regression time by 30% while maintaining an auditable risk-tradeoff process with safety and engineering teams. Also deployed an inventory management system across 8+ R&D teams in 3 countries at FUJIFILM, troubleshooting a major cross-site sync issue to a timezone root cause with strong documentation and interim mitigations.”

“Full-stack engineer with deep serverless AWS experience who built VidToNote, an AI video analysis platform, end-to-end using Next.js App Router/TypeScript and an event-driven pipeline (API Gateway, Lambda, DynamoDB, S3, Step Functions, SQS). Strong on production reliability and observability (CloudWatch, X-Ray, structured logging), plus data/analytics work in Postgres with measurable query optimizations and durable LLM evaluation workflows. Amazon background; integrated 22 AWS services and completed AWS Solutions Architect Professional certification within a month.”

“Meta engineer focused on reliability/operations tooling who built a unified real-time health dashboard and scalable telemetry pipelines (AWS + Datadog) for thousands of devices. Also shipped an internal LLM-powered knowledge assistant using RAG over wikis/runbooks/logs with strong guardrails and a rigorous eval loop that drove measurable accuracy improvements via automated doc ingestion and embedding updates.”

“Platform and distributed-systems leader (player-coach) who owned architecture and reliability for an Amazon analytics/data platform serving ~100K internal users at exabyte scale. Built an ML-driven “Lakeflow” optimization layer that cut pipeline completion times ~20–25% and reduced compute waste >15%, and led major incident response/redesign efforts (e.g., deletion storm) with strong rollout/observability/rollback practices.”

“Internship experience deploying cloud-based services into production, including navigating security/resource provisioning and coordinating approvals across impacted teams. Built a Python backend for a local Ollama-based app using open-source models, and has hands-on distributed systems experience implementing and debugging Paxos with extensive logging/state tracing.”

“AWS engineer who productionized an internal ML-driven data pipeline from a notebook prototype into a scalable, observable Python service (schema validation, deduplication, idempotency, safe retries, versioned transforms, CloudWatch alarms), reducing manual effort and improving data accuracy/trust. Experienced diagnosing workflow issues in real time (e.g., upstream schema changes) and partnering with account managers/support to unblock adoption of seller-facing Marketplace features by demonstrating reliability with concrete metrics.”

“Senior engineering leader in the Bay Area with experience spanning VMware, Hortonworks/Cloudera, Barracuda, and Palo Alto Networks, including leading open-source work (Apache Knox) and architecting large-scale security platforms. Has driven disaster recovery and cloud security products, designed Python microservices for Microsoft 365 security, and scaled teams (3x) while formalizing enterprise readiness practices with automated documentation using Notebook LLM.”

“Built and productionized a dual-agent LLM invoice-processing system for GFI Partners, adding guardrails and audit trails to earn stakeholder trust and drive adoption while cutting operational burden by 75%. Uses LangSmith observability to diagnose real-time workflow regressions and has experience teaching agentic AI concepts (e.g., at Carnegie Mellon) through hands-on, scaffolded demos.”
