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.”

Senior Full-Stack Engineer specializing in Healthcare IT

San Francisco, CA27y exp

“Founding/sole engineer who has built multiple healthcare products from scratch, spanning medical billing, cardiology triage, and cardiac device monitoring. Particularly compelling for healthtech and AI roles: they combine full-stack TypeScript/AWS execution with strong product judgment in regulated settings, including shipping voice-enabled RAG workflows and rejecting unsafe AI automation when simpler human-in-the-loop UX was the right answer.”

Mid-Level Software Development Engineer specializing in distributed systems and event-driven architectures

Santa Clara, California4y exp

“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.”

Director-level Engineering Manager specializing in AI platforms, FinTech, and Healthtech

Santa Clara, CA24y exp

“Serial entrepreneur building three distinct products: a context-aware AI chatbot, a connected TV companion-screen platform with an implementation client, and gamerogue.net, a mobile-optimized web-based virtual tabletop marketplace currently seeking funding. Brings hands-on fundraising experience, familiarity with the VC/accelerator ecosystem including YC, and a notably pragmatic approach to validating ideas based on existing market demand rather than speculative adoption.”

Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in AI platforms and full-stack systems

Santa Clara, CA4y exp

“Built and shipped a production AI-powered Q&A/RAG onboarding assistant at One Community Global that unified knowledge across Notion, Google Docs, and Slack, cutting volunteer onboarding time by 45%. Demonstrates strong end-to-end ownership: LangChain agent orchestration integrated into a FastAPI backend, rigorous evaluation (200-query dataset, ~85% accuracy), and production feedback/monitoring with source-attributed answers to build user trust.”

“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).”

Senior Solutions Engineer specializing in mobile SDK integrations and AdTech

Alameda, CA13y exp

“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.”

Sunnyvale, CA8y exp

“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.”

“Built a production LLM-powered diagnostic agent at Supermicro that automated triage of NVIDIA H100/H200 GPU cluster failures by parsing BMC/Redfish logs and recommending fixes from historical RMA data. Their work combined agent architecture, reliability engineering, and backend optimization, delivering a 30% reduction in resolution time and 50% lower database load.”

“Frontend-leaning full-stack engineer who built internal product capabilities at Mercedes-Benz R&D, including a vehicle exploration platform, test drive booking flow, and a 0→1 vehicle comparison feature. Stands out for combining strong React architecture and performance optimization with practical backend/API ownership in Node/Express and MongoDB.”

Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in backend, AI, and distributed systems

San Jose, CA5y exp

“Software engineer with 4.5 years of startup experience across programmatic advertising, health tech e-commerce, and automobile diagnostics, plus both bachelor's and master's degrees in CSE. Built an agentic global supply chain platform in a hackathon using a highly structured AI-first workflow, and has hands-on experience designing multi-agent debate systems, rollout safeguards, and observability-driven production fixes.”

“Frontend-focused product engineer with strong React/TypeScript architecture depth who built a streaming AI chat demo at Cleanlab in just 2 weeks that became the centerpiece of every sales call. They combine real-time UX, API contract design, observability, and design-system ownership, and have also built high-density Kubernetes operational dashboards while stepping into product design when resources were limited.”

“Full-stack and AI product engineer focused on data instrumentation and tracking-plan automation. They built an end-to-end publish architecture plus an MCP/agent workflow that turns PRDs, Figma files, and meeting transcripts into tracking plans and implementation-ready code, reportedly shrinking work from 4-5 days to minutes. They also show strong judgment around productionizing LLM systems, with tool-centric prompt design, backend guardrails, and human-in-the-loop controls for high-risk actions.”

Intern software engineer specializing in AI, cloud, and full-stack systems

Fremont, CA2y exp

“Engineer with experience at Fox Corporation and Qualcomm, focused on production automation and AI-powered systems. At Fox, they built a serverless Bedrock Operations CoPilot for broadcast/media operations that centralized fragmented operational data and cut incident investigation time by 50-60% across distributed teams and stations. They also bring applied LLM experience from Qualcomm, where they worked on a safer RAG-based learning assistant for children with autism spectrum disorder.”
