Tom Staijen is a Senior Software Development Engineer with 11 years of experience building scalable, secure cloud-native systems and leading teams through architectural and delivery transformations. Currently at Amazon, he blends big-data and ML expertise with MLOps, serverless patterns, and experimentation to reinvent recruiting engines, while earlier roles saw him migrate monoliths to microservices and introduce IaC and CD practices. He prefers Kanban, emphasizes asking "Why?" and "How do you know it works?", and brings hands-on skills across AWS, Spark, PyTorch, Docker/Kubernetes, and observability stacks like Prometheus and ELK. Known for improving software quality and shortening delivery cycles, he pairs research-grade rigor from a PhD background with practical leadership that scales both teams and systems.
