Vetted Engineering Professionals in the DMV

“Robotics-focused engineer from a senior capstone who built the backend motion-control software for a semi-autonomous line-following vehicle split across two ESP32s. Experienced in ROS 2 (DDS, lifecycle nodes, QoS) and in bridging microcontroller telemetry to a laptop ROS 2 stack over UART with custom structured protocols, using Gazebo simulation to tune PID and validate behavior before deploying to hardware.”

“Backend engineer on Morgan Stanley’s trade risk and compliance platform, building Java/Spring Boot microservices that validate equity and fixed-income trades at multi-million-events/day scale. Shipped an LLM-assisted trade exception analysis feature using RAG over internal policy documents and trade history, with production-grade guardrails (confidence thresholds, audit logs, human-in-the-loop) and measurable performance wins (~30–35% faster reporting) through PostgreSQL tuning and Redis caching.”

“Salesforce developer with hands-on ownership of a complex Live Chat to Enhanced Chat migration, including LWC pre-chat forms, Apex/API integrations, Omni-Channel, Flow-based routing, and production rollout. Stands out for solving a difficult transcript-delivery requirement by designing an alternate conversation retrieval approach using Messaging Session, Apex callouts, and scheduled jobs.”

Senior Software Engineer specializing in AI, cloud infrastructure, and full-stack development

Chantilly, VA17y exp

“ML/NLP engineer who built a production system that converts large-scale unstructured text into a connected, searchable knowledge base using spaCy + Sentence Transformers/FAISS and a Neo4j knowledge graph, with BERTopic and XGBoost for organization/labeling. Strong focus on production-grade Python workflows (FastAPI/Celery, Pydantic validation, Docker, AWS ECS/Lambda) and robust entity resolution with measurable precision/recall and human review for low-confidence matches.”

Mid-level Full-Stack Java Developer specializing in enterprise SaaS and FinTech

Fairfax, VA5y exp

“Software engineer with fintech/retirement-fund domain experience who led an internal dashboard consolidating fund transactions, approvals, and reporting into a single workflow tool. Strong in full-stack delivery (React + REST APIs + DB optimization) and in scaling/cleaning messy operational data via modular ETL pipelines (Python/Node), iterating post-launch with performance improvements like caching, pagination, and enhanced filtering.”

Mid-level Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in FinTech and cloud-native microservices

Remote – Washington, D.C.5y exp

“Backend engineer with fintech/banking experience (e.g., Canara Bank) building secure Python/Flask microservices for financial reporting and unified data access. Strong in Postgres/SQLAlchemy performance optimization (including materialized views) and in productionizing ML services on AWS (Lambda/ECS/CloudWatch) with Docker, model registries, and blue-green deployments, plus multi-tenant isolation via JWT-based middleware.”

“Backend/data engineer with hands-on production experience building reliable Python FastAPI services on Kubernetes and delivering AWS EKS + Terraform CI/CD with strong secrets isolation and rollback practices. Also built AWS Glue ETL pipelines into S3/Redshift with schema-evolution handling and data-quality controls, modernized legacy analytics into modular Python services with parallel-run parity validation, and has demonstrated SQL tuning impact (minutes to seconds) plus ownership of batch pipeline incidents end-to-end.”

“Backend/data engineer with hands-on production experience building FastAPI APIs secured with JWT and delivering AWS-based data processing solutions using Lambda and ECS Fargate. Has worked with Snowflake/third-party API sources and targets including DynamoDB, S3, RDS, Redshift, and Glue, and uses CloudWatch/X-Ray for monitoring and troubleshooting. Seeking ~$65/hr and is open to onsite work in Bethesda, MD.”
