Services

Engineering services, delivered remote

Four areas where I deliver as a remote contractor — each backed by production systems running today in regulated industries.

AWS Cloud & Serverless Backend

Design, build, and operation of AWS-native serverless and data-driven architectures — the core of my last five years of full-time work.

  • Serverless system design: Lambda (Python and .NET), API Gateway, SQS
  • Event-driven, high-volume asynchronous processing pipelines
  • Aurora MySQL, DynamoDB, and RDS data modeling — including production RDS MySQL 8.0 → 8.4 migration
  • S3 → Athena → QuickSight analytics and reporting pipelines
  • REST APIs with Swagger/OpenAPI documentation
  • CloudWatch monitoring and IAM-based operational ownership

.NET / C# Engineering

Twenty years of C#/.NET across desktop, services, and cloud — from WinForms client-server through modern .NET Core APIs.

  • .NET Core REST APIs for regulated platforms (education loans, 401(k) transaction systems)
  • WinForms desktop applications and Windows-service operational tooling
  • Voltage Security field-level encryption for sensitive financial data
  • Fortify security-finding remediation across distributed API systems
  • Enterprise integration alongside ServiceNow and Salesforce CRM environments

AI-Enabled Application Development

Practical LLM engineering — not demos. Claude-powered systems designed for dependable, repeatable output in production.

  • Claude API agent workflows, prompt design, and orchestration logic
  • Production intelligent automation: document classification and extraction (Hyperscience + AWS)
  • Real-time analytics dashboards (Python, Dash/Plotly) with LLM-assisted scoring
  • Multi-source data ingestion with fallback providers for reliability and cost efficiency

Legacy & Mainframe Modernization

"Bilingual" fluency across mainframe and cloud — I can read the COBOL and design its serverless replacement.

  • COBOL, JCL, CICS, DB2, IMS, and batch-processing fluency
  • Strangler-fig migration of monolithic and batch workloads to AWS serverless
  • Legacy database logic migrated to maintainable service-oriented architectures
  • FHIR R4 healthcare data platform build (Lambda, RDS, self-hosted Medplum)

Working together

Engagement types

Project delivery

Fixed-scope builds: an API, a pipeline, a migration — delivered, documented, and handed off.

Staff augmentation

Embedded with your team on your backlog — comfortable in Agile/Jira environments, onshore or alongside offshore teams.

Advisory

Architecture reviews, modernization roadmaps, and AI-integration assessments.
