Junior Quantitative Analyst and Full-Stack Engineer specializing in FinTech and web platforms

Chicago, IL6y exp

“Backend/distributed-systems engineer with AI infrastructure experience who built an AI-driven video generation platform, focusing on an asynchronous FastAPI-based orchestration layer between user APIs and heavy inference services. Strong in production instrumentation and latency/concurrency optimization; actively learning ROS 2 but has not yet worked on physical robotics or ROS-based deployments.”

Senior Full-Stack Java Developer specializing in cloud-native microservices

Chicago, Illinois4y exp

“Full-stack engineer with experience building secure, cloud-native document/workflow platforms handling high-volume customer and medical data across microservices on Kubernetes. Demonstrated impact improving performance via event-driven AWS architectures (Lambda + DynamoDB Streams) and strengthening compliance/security for S3-stored documents using IAM and KMS. Has delivered end-to-end APIs and UIs using Java/Spring Boot with Angular/React, plus Docker and CI/CD.”

Rohit Vibhu Channananjundarya

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

Chicago, IL6y exp

“Engineer who treats AI as a force multiplier rather than a replacement for judgment, with hands-on experience using tools like Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, and Codex across planning, coding, testing, and review. Particularly notable for building a multi-agent PR review system that automated summarization, risk scanning, schema validation, and test suggestions, helping the team shift reviewer time toward architecture and business logic.”

Prashant Salunke

Screened

Mid-Level Software Development Engineer specializing in full-stack and cloud-native systems

Chicago, IL4y exp

“Backend engineer who has shipped production LLM-powered features, including an AI-assisted developer tool on AWS (Spring Boot) and a blog platform capability using embeddings + Elasticsearch for semantic retrieval and LLM-generated summaries/recommendations. Demonstrates practical tradeoff management (quality/latency/cost), guardrails to reduce hallucinations, and evaluation-driven iteration using real user queries and observability via ELK.”

“Entry-level software engineer who has shipped end-to-end product features in a chat application, including a frontend table component plus backend support, then refactored the implementation after client feedback by switching UI libraries. Has production experience combining traditional NLP with an LLM fallback based on confidence thresholds for intent/entity extraction, and is building infrastructure around legacy enterprise APIs (MCP tools) including asynchronous job queues for long-running tasks.”

Saicharitha Yanamandala

Screened

Mid-Level Software Developer specializing in Java, Cloud, and Microservices

Chicago, IL6y exp

“Backend/Python engineer who owned an end-to-end FastAPI + AWS internal natural-language document Q&A system (Textract extraction, embeddings/vector DB, LLM integration) with strong focus on reliability and latency. Hands-on with Kubernetes + GitOps (Argo CD, Helm, rolling updates/auto-rollback) and built/optimized Kafka streaming pipelines using Prometheus/Grafana. Also supported a zero-downtime on-prem to cloud migration with parallel run and gradual traffic cutover.”
