Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolRudi Kershaw is a seasoned full-stack engineer with 11 years of experience building production-grade systems for scientific and public sector customers, currently leading R&D engagements at AWS Public Sector Customer Engineering. He combines deep distributed-systems and stream-processing expertise (Apache Flink, managed Flink infrastructure) with hands-on AI/ML work—delivering RAG/Bedrock platforms, knowledge graphs on Neptune, and ML-tracked simulation pipelines that cut runtimes by 95%. Known for technical leadership, Rudi authors design docs, mentors engineers, and reviewed 180+ PRs last year while driving reusable internal tooling and security hardening across teams. He thrives on hard engineering problems that matter, has repeatedly delivered ahead of schedule to production standards, and balances rigorous technical delivery with a pragmatic focus on customer impact. An enthusiastic science and ML hobbyist, he brings both skeptical curiosity and collaborative pragmatism to complex, multidisciplinary projects.
