Vetted Engineering Professionals in the Bay Area

“Backend engineer with experience modernizing a large-scale procurement platform at Jio Platforms by breaking a monolith serving 35 business units into Spring Boot microservices, improving uptime and cutting report latency ~30%. Also built high-concurrency FastAPI systems (200ms at ~500 concurrent users) with strong security (JWT/OAuth2/RBAC), event-driven Kafka integrations, and reliability patterns like exactly-once delivery for ~1M monthly triggers.”

“Built and maintained an internal JavaScript/React real-time event monitoring UI used by multiple Goldman Sachs teams (e.g., Private Wealth Management and Bulk Trading Systems). Focused on scaling performance under hundreds of events/sec—using profiling, memoization, batching, and debouncing—and paired it with strong internal documentation and disciplined incident diagnosis via synthetic load testing and logs/metrics.”

“Healthcare-focused software engineer/lead who has delivered customer-facing portals and internal call-center tools, including rebuilding a legacy Adobe Flash call center app into a modern TypeScript frontend with NgRx state management. Experienced leading onshore/offshore teams, integrating healthcare APIs, and driving adoption by visiting call centers to capture user workflows and bake them into regression testing—work that proved especially valuable during COVID-era shifts to video appointments.”

“Software engineer with experience at Dollar Shave Club and Mudflap, focused on user-driven product delivery and cross-team alignment. Built an Okta SSO-based internal portal (React/Node) centralizing access to org services, and has hands-on experience diagnosing LLM/agent workflow issues via instrumentation and systematic triage. Known for translating between product/customer needs and engineering tradeoffs to ship quickly while planning stabilization and scalability.”

“Software engineer with experience spanning an SEL internship and Walmart, combining backend/data pipeline work (Python, Kafka, relational DBs) with DevOps practices (Docker, Grafana, GitHub/Jenkins CI/CD, GitOps). Notably contributed to a REST-to-GraphQL migration aimed at reducing cloud utilization and implemented testing strategies to validate the transition.”

“Built and deployed a production LLM system that scraped Google Maps menu photos, extracted structured prices via OpenAI, and cross-validated them against website-scraped data to automate data-quality verification at scale (replacing costly manual contractor checks). Demonstrates strong reliability instincts—precision-first prompting, output gating with image-quality metadata, and fuzzy matching/RAG techniques—plus solid orchestration (Dagster/Airflow) and observability (Sentry, Prometheus/Grafana).”

“Customer-facing technical professional with hands-on ad tech experience enabling a non-SDK header-bidding integration by analyzing APIs/SDK behavior, documenting end-to-end requirements, and guiding the customer through release. Strong at tailoring technical demos for mixed executive/engineering audiences and partnering with sales on metrics-driven launches and beta rollouts. No direct on-the-job LLM/agentic systems experience yet, but interested in moving into that space.”

“LLM/RAG engineer who took a PDF-heavy agent from prototype to production for an Africa-based client, combining Pinecone retrieval with robust PDF parsing (unstructured.io, OCR, structured table extraction). Demonstrates strong production mindset (eval metrics, prompt hardening, security/scalability) and measurable optimization impact (30% efficiency gain, 2x faster responses), and has helped close deals by building security-focused POCs for skeptical IT stakeholders.”

“Support engineer with IBM DFSMS OAM experience who restored a production TS7770 environment during a TS7760→TS7700 migration by using logs, SLIP traps, and dump analysis to pinpoint an SMS configuration (SCDS) issue, then partnering with the customer to redo the migration successfully. Also built a personal agentic news selector system and emphasizes documentation improvements and customer education to prevent recurring incidents.”

“Full-stack engineer with customer-facing delivery experience who built and deployed a multi-platform social media automation product (Next.js/Node/MongoDB) and optimized it using BullMQ/Redis background jobs, retries, and rate limiting for reliable posting at scale. Also delivered an AI-powered false-positive analysis service in a cybersecurity context, resolving production pipeline stalls via log-driven debugging, parallelization, caching, and LLM guardrails.”

“Backend engineer with experience at Roche and Jarsy focused on API and data-layer performance. Re-architected slow generalized endpoints into more efficient APIs (30% faster lookups) and led a schema refactor/migration with feature-flag rollout, dual writes, rollback scripts, and automated integrity checks; also addressed pipeline duplicate-entry issues via deduplication.”
