• Develop high-volume ingestion and persistence paths for in-band agents and out-of-band collectors.
• Work with Aurora PostgreSQL, Kafka/MSK, S3, SQS, Prometheus/AMP, and OpenTelemetry-based observability.
• Build and operate scheduled backend services for liveness tracking, alerting, rollups, cleanup, notification delivery, attestation, and XID analysis.
• Optimize database schemas, partitioned time-series storage, query performance, CTE-heavy queries, and connection pooling for reliable service behavior.
• Collaborate with agent, infrastructure, SRE, UI, and cloud operations teams to turn operational workflows into scalable backend systems.
