Pratima Singh

Screened

Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in FinTech, cloud microservices, and blockchain

Tempe, AZ10y exp

“Python/ML engineer with strong DevOps depth: built an end-to-end regime-aware stock prediction system (custom fine-tuned FinBERT sentiment + technical/macro features) delivering a 12% accuracy lift. Also implemented Kubernetes/Helm + Jenkins/GitHub Actions pipelines (including GitOps-style workflows for multi-cloud Hyperledger Besu) and improved deployment speed/stability by ~50% while addressing race conditions and image drift.”

“Backend/data platform engineer who led a major redesign of a hybrid streaming+batch analytics platform processing 10+ TB/day (Airflow/Hive/BigQuery) with strong data-quality automation. Also built a production RAG PDF assistant with concrete mitigations for hallucinations and prompt injection (re-ranking, grounding, verifier step) and has deep experience executing low-risk migrations (dual-write, blue-green, rapid rollback) and implementing JWT-based row-level security.”

“Early-career/new-grad candidate who built TrendScout AI, an evidence-first market intelligence agent that ingests messy news, extracts entities/events, builds a Neo4j knowledge graph, and answers questions via RAG with citations. Achieved ~95% retrieval relevance by combining ChromaDB semantic search with graph-based retrieval and validating outputs through human evaluation and guardrails to prevent hallucinations.”

Arunkumar Gangula

Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in distributed systems and cloud microservices

Tempe, Arizona11y exp

“Product-minded full-stack engineer from CouponDunia who owned end-to-end notification and recommendation services at million-user scale. Built internal admin/analytics and operations dashboards in React/TypeScript with typed contracts and scalable Node.js REST APIs, and has deep microservices experience with Kafka/RabbitMQ (idempotency, retries/DLQs, partitioning, consumer tuning, and observability).”

Nisarg Shah

Screened

Junior Machine Learning Engineer specializing in geospatial analytics and computer vision

Tempe, Arizona1y exp

“Built and evolved a geospatial ETL + API platform that processes pixel-wise satellite imagery in PostgreSQL/PostGIS into low-latency farm-level time-series metrics for an interactive dashboard, using precomputed hotspot analysis to reduce latency by 75–80%. Experienced in FastAPI-style API contract design (OpenAPI), caching, server-side filtering/compression, and production-minded security patterns (RBAC, session-derived authorization, password hashing) with disciplined rollback/versioning practices.”

“Robotics software engineer who led system design for an Autonomous Trash Collecting ASV presented at the IEEE ICRA 2025 “Robots in the Wild” workshop, integrating YOLOv8-based perception with ROS autonomy logic to detour for trash while preserving a scientific survey mission. Also built ROS2 UAV capabilities combining ArUco detection, RTAB-Map SLAM, and PX4 integration, with strong simulation (Gazebo/VTD/MSC Adams) and CI/CD QA automation experience.”

“Systems Engineer at Tata Consultancy Services with hands-on ownership of enterprise logistics microservices (Spring Boot) using Kafka integrated with Azure Event Hubs, including partitioning strategies and operational handling of consumer lag/duplicate events. Also built a full-stack road-accident blackspot detection application using Python-based spatial clustering and model evaluation with a JavaScript/Mapbox frontend.”

Manali Kishor Gawande

Screened

Junior SDET/QA Automation Engineer specializing in FinTech testing and CI/CD automation

Tempe, AZ2y exp

“QA automation engineer from Bajaj Finance who owned end-to-end automated test suites for large-scale web/mobile products (70M+ users), building Python and API automation integrated with Jenkins/Azure DevOps. Drove measurable quality outcomes (40% less regression effort, 35% fewer production defects, 98% successful UAT across 25+ releases) and has strong fintech lending domain experience (loan disbursement/repayment/eligibility).”

“BI/analytics candidate with healthcare and product analytics experience spanning Honor Health and ASU. They’ve worked on messy multi-system hospital supply data and also owned analytics for an AI-powered tax assistant, with quantified outcomes including 97% faster search, 92% retrieval accuracy, 30% fewer ad hoc procurement requests, and 15% lower operational cost.”

“ROS2/Python robotics engineer who led a 4-person team building a simulated multi-robot warehouse system (SLAM + NAV2 + centralized task allocation) in Gazebo Ignition, including a distance/priority-based controller that reduced task completion time by ~30%. Also has hands-on real-time debugging/tuning experience for both mobile robots and a MyCobot 600 Pro manipulator, plus simulation work in CARLA using RL (TD3) and Social-LSTM for pedestrian behavior modeling.”

Rakshith Baskar

Screened

Junior Robotics Engineer specializing in ROS2 perception and multi-sensor calibration

Mesa, AZ1y exp

“Entry-level robotics software engineer/team lead with hands-on experience spanning multi-robot UAV simulation (Gazebo + PX4 SITL) and autonomous vehicle stack integration (ROS2 Humble + Autoware Universe). Has tackled real-time perception optimization (OpenCV + custom deep learning) and built robust cross-protocol communication interfaces to connect ROS2 systems with embedded ESP32 devices.”

“Backend engineer with research and industry experience building data-intensive systems for healthcare and IoT. Built Python/Flask/FastAPI services with real-time ingestion and ETL into relational databases, emphasizing data quality, performance tuning, and secure access controls (JWT, RBAC, row-level filtering). Notably caught hardware-driven sensor anomalies others missed and implemented quarantine/alerting to prevent bad data from corrupting analytics.”

“Robotics software engineer with ~4 years of ROS experience who implemented a real-time diffusion-policy control loop entirely in Gazebo, focusing on inference-latency reduction (warm-start + truncated denoising) for stable closed-loop execution. Has hands-on experience building custom ROS control nodes, optimizing AMR navigation (SLAM + RRT) with sensor-fusion for dynamic obstacles, and designing deterministic multi-robot coordination; also uses Dockerized ROS environments and automated simulation/benchmark pipelines.”
