Vetted Engineering Professionals in the Bay Area

Revanth P

Screened

Mid-level DevOps Engineer specializing in AWS, Azure, Kubernetes, and GenAI infrastructure

Walnut Creek, CA4y exp

“Database/platform engineer with stronger hands-on experience in AWS and Azure than GCP, but able to speak credibly about cloud database architecture, automation, and reliability engineering. They led an on-prem MySQL to RDS/DynamoDB migration, built Terraform/Python-based zero-touch database operations, and described a performance incident where latency dropped from 2s to under 300ms while supporting 2x traffic.”

SIVA RAMAKRISHNA PALADI

Screened

Mid-level AI/Full-Stack Engineer specializing in agentic AI and RAG systems

Santa Clara, CA5y exp

“Solo builder who shipped two ambitious AI products from scratch: Zoly, a healthcare/pharmacy automation platform with voice agents, RAG, clinician dashboard, and patient app live in 4 months, and Breeth, a contextual memory system for AI agents deployed on AWS. Particularly compelling for teams needing a hands-on full-stack/AI engineer who can operate in ambiguity, design for safety and compliance, and turn complex agent workflows into production products.”

“Backend engineer at PlatePost who built an AI-driven food pairing/recommendation feature for restaurants using Google Gemini, shipping quickly by caching results with a 24-hour refresh and manual override. Emphasizes practical reliability/security patterns (logging, error handling, tenant-scoped queries) and proactively caught an accessibility issue via screen reader testing.”

“Product-focused full-stack engineer with strong performance and reliability instincts: improved production page responsiveness by 15% via lazy loading and render optimization, and built a polished React+TypeScript filtering dashboard with URL-synced state for shareable views. Also designed and operated a Django REST backend with versioning, token auth, structured logging, and API tests, and has handled real production scaling issues through PostgreSQL query-plan analysis and indexing.”

Thota Rajkumar

Screened

Junior Cloud & AI Infrastructure Engineer specializing in Agentic AI and AWS

San Jose, CA2y exp

“Built and deployed a production AI career-advice agent designed to combat unreliable/generic LLM guidance by grounding outputs in retrieval-first RAG over resumes/job/hiring data, with multi-step reasoning, structured memory, and evidence-only prompting to reduce hallucinations. Implemented the system with LangChain/Python and deployed on AWS as scalable microservices orchestrated via REST and asynchronous calls, iterating closely with career coaches and students.”

Zoe Meng

Screened

Mid-level Full-Stack Engineer specializing in React, Node.js, GraphQL, and TypeScript

Richmond, CA6y exp

“Full-stack engineer experienced in high-growth (seed to Series B/C) SaaS environments, with strong production ownership across performance, observability, and reliability. Has shipped Next.js App Router/TypeScript features and improved real-world UX metrics (e.g., virtualization boosting scroll from 30→60 FPS and reducing mobile bounce), optimized Postgres with indexing/EXPLAIN ANALYZE, and built idempotent payment/provisioning workflows using Temporal.”

“Led a government smart city deployment where success depended less on pure engineering and more on navigating policy, budget, and operational constraints. Built phased, cost-conscious systems combining data pipelines, on-prem AI, OCR, and human-in-the-loop workflows to deliver stable production outcomes and make ambiguous real-world data more controllable at scale.”

“Master's student who built and owned a recruiter-focused full-stack dashboard with real-time updates, large candidate datasets, and performance-sensitive React UI workflows. Stands out for practical front-end optimization work using Chrome DevTools, CSS/rendering fixes, and TypeScript to improve speed, usability, and maintainability.”
