About Himanshu Sinha

I get called in when cloud programs are broken, timelines are on fire, or clients need someone who can hold the technical conversation AND walk into a C-suite presentation the same day.In the past three years I\'ve led AWS modernization programs across Fannie Mae, Hartford Insurance, and Cigna – fixed-price, high-stakes, with real accountability. That means an AutoSys migration delivered 4 weeks early on a $2.2M+ program, a serverless re-architecture shipped to production before contract expiry securing $546K in revenue, and an AI-powered code modernization platform (Amazon Bedrock / Claude) that reduced legacy modernization effort by ~60% and directly enabled a $2.2M deal.What I actually do- Lead end-to-end cloud architecture and delivery for enterprise-scale migrations (AutoSys, TIBCO, legacy middleware to AWS)- Solve the blockers others can\'t – I resolved an EKS/Milvus networking issue client+AWS itself couldn\'t crack in 2 months- Drive 4x performance improvements as an embedded advisory consultant (Hartford Insurance, 20 months)- Bridge technical teams and business stakeholders – I present to C-suite and debug infrastructure the same week- Win pre-sales pursuits – $2M Fannie Mae Remic SOW,$7M+ total pipeline, RFPs for Marsh, AT & T, SiriusXM, Mapfre, and moreI hold 8 AWS certifications including Solutions Architect Professional, DevOps Engineer Professional, and Security Specialty. I earned my first 5 AWS certs in 2018 – when most public sector organizations had never heard of them.My background spans financial services, federal government, healthcare, and insurance. I\'ve delivered on fixed-price programs where failure wasn\'t an option and the client was watching.I\'m based in Raleigh-Durham, NC and open to full-time Principal Architect and Senior Manager opportunities at enterprise companies and large consulting firms.If you\'re building something complex on AWS and need someone who can own it end to end – let\'s connect.
