About
Backend/data engineer with strong AWS production experience spanning serverless APIs and containerized workers (Lambda, API Gateway, ECS) plus data pipelines (Glue, S3, Athena/Redshift). Has modernized legacy SAS/cron batch systems into Python/AWS with parallel-run parity validation and low-risk cutovers, and has owned ETL incidents end-to-end (CloudWatch detection, backfills, and preventative controls). Targeting $130k–$150k base and strongly prefers remote, with occasional Bethesda onsite acceptable.

Designed and operated AWS notification + data-ingestion backend using API Gateway, Lambda, DynamoDB, SNS, and S3
Reliability-focused API design: JWT validation, explicit timeouts, idempotent retries with exponential backoff/jitter, structured errors, correlation IDs
Production deployments with IaC (CloudFormation/Terraform) and CI/CD including automated tests, versioned artifacts, and safe rollbacks
Cost/performance optimization across Lambda and ECS (right-sizing, reserved concurrency, shifting sustained workloads to ECS)
Built AWS Glue ETL to curated partitioned Parquet in S3 for Athena/Redshift with schema evolution and data-quality quarantine
Modernized legacy SAS/cron batch logic to Python + AWS jobs using parallel runs, stakeholder-facing parity reporting, phased rollout, feature flags, and rollback
SQL performance tuning with measurable impact (reduced reporting query runtime from minutes to seconds via composite index, early filtering, partition batching)
Incident ownership for data pipelines: detected via CloudWatch, triaged with logs/metrics, paused downstream consumers, backfilled partitions, added preventative validation/runbooks

Mid-level Back-End Python Developer specializing in cloud-native microservices and FinTech
Boston, MA5y exp
State StreetBinghamton University
“Backend engineer focused on building production-ready Python services (Flask/FastAPI) with strong performance and scalability instincts—Celery/Redis background processing, robust multi-tenant isolation (Postgres RLS), and pragmatic CI/Docker operations. Demonstrated measurable DB optimization impact (cut a critical analytics query from ~1–2s to ~100–150ms) and has hands-on experience integrating LLM/ML workflows (OpenAI, LangChain, embeddings, Redis/FAISS vector stores) without degrading API responsiveness.”
Mid-level Python Full-Stack Developer specializing in Healthcare and FinTech
Everett, MA6y exp
Kaiser PermanenteHarrisburg University of Science and Technology
“Backend engineer with hands-on experience building a fraud-transaction monitoring system in Python/Flask, architected as Dockerized microservices and integrated with Kafka for high-volume streaming. Demonstrates strong performance and reliability chops across PostgreSQL/SQLAlchemy tuning (EXPLAIN ANALYZE, N+1 fixes, bulk ops), multi-tenant data isolation, and scaling via background workers + Redis caching, plus real-time ML inference deployment using TensorFlow on AWS.”
