Vetted Backend Engineers

Yuan-Hao Chen

Screened

Intern Software Engineer specializing in backend systems and cloud infrastructure

Urbana, IL1y exp

“Backend-focused intern who owned real-time livestream features: live comment moderation using AWS Comprehend (sentiment/toxicity/PII) with safe fallbacks, plus AI-generated positive commentary via AWS Bedrock (Claude 3 Haiku). Emphasizes reliability/low-latency design, IAM troubleshooting, and disciplined GitOps-style CI workflows for reproducible deployments.”

Mid-level Full-Stack AI Engineer specializing in agentic AI systems

Tempe, AZ4y exp

“AI/full-stack builder with hands-on experience shipping healthcare, career-tech, nonprofit, and fintech products, spanning speech AI, browser extensions, agentic RAG systems, and enterprise ML monitoring. Stands out for combining strong technical depth with measurable outcomes, including reducing clinical call WER from 26% to 3%, building safe tool-using agents with rollback/RBAC, and delivering zero-to-one multi-tenant platform features in ambiguous environments.”

“Backend engineer focused on building production-ready Python services (Flask/FastAPI) with strong performance and scalability instincts—Celery/Redis background processing, robust multi-tenant isolation (Postgres RLS), and pragmatic CI/Docker operations. Demonstrated measurable DB optimization impact (cut a critical analytics query from ~1–2s to ~100–150ms) and has hands-on experience integrating LLM/ML workflows (OpenAI, LangChain, embeddings, Redis/FAISS vector stores) without degrading API responsiveness.”

Senior Backend Engineer specializing in real-time data platforms for FinTech and Healthcare

Plano, Texas6y exp

“Backend/data engineer with experience at JPMorgan building near real-time payment risk and fraud scoring pipelines using Python, Spark Structured Streaming, and Delta Lake, emphasizing auditability, security, and data correctness (dedupe/late events) to reduce false positives. Also led a legacy-to-cloud migration of claims/eligibility data at Cogna with parallel runs, phased rollout, and healthcare-specific validation (ICD-CPT mapping).”

Akhil Nakka

Mid-level Software Developer specializing in FinTech and cloud-native microservices

Remote, USA4y exp

“Full Stack Engineer in fintech (JPMorgan) who owns products end-to-end across React UIs and Spring Boot/Kafka backends, with a strong track record of shipping quickly while maintaining reliability via testing, monitoring, and feature flags. Has hands-on experience scaling microservices for high-volume transactions and debugging production latency using ELK/CloudWatch, plus built an internal Python/Flask automation tool adopted by backend engineers to speed API validation and debugging.”

Prashant Singh

Screened

Mid-level Backend/Platform Engineer specializing in data pipelines, reliability, and AI-assisted ingestion

8y exp

“Backend engineer who built and scaled a blockchain-based e-voting platform at early-stage startup Elemential Labs, balancing decentralization with real-world operability by centralizing control-plane components while keeping the ledger immutable. Has hands-on experience migrating high-throughput ingestion from Kafka to AWS Kinesis with parallel cutover, strengthening data integrity and read-after-write consistency (Elasticsearch), and hardening pipelines against silent data-quality failures via anomaly detection and self-healing automation.”
