Vetted Engineering Professionals in the Greater Seattle

“AI Software Engineer (student employee) at University of Washington IT who helped deploy "Purple," a governed, explainable LLM platform on Azure used by 100,000+ students/faculty/staff. Independently led scalable reliability efforts by building automated agent quality/load/red-team testing and CI/CD health validation (Playwright/Node.js, Azure DevOps), and previously built an explainable AI scheduling assistant for clinical operations at Proliance Surgeons.”

“Full-stack engineer with strong Next.js App Router/TypeScript experience who built production dataset search/filtering and data-heavy dashboards backed by Postgres. Demonstrates hands-on performance work across the stack (EXPLAIN ANALYZE, composite indexes, caching, React profiling/memoization) and has built durable, Temporal-like orchestrated data-processing workflows with idempotency and retry strategies in an early-stage startup environment (Gaia AI).”

“Built a production AI-powered sales automation system that reads inbound product enquiry emails, extracts structured data, and routes decisions via a rules-based workflow integrated with a product database. Leverages Gemini structured outputs/schema plus option-based prompting and validation to keep responses reliable, and optimizes latency by breaking agent reasoning into smaller LLM calls; evaluates workflows with LangSmith and metrics like completion rate and accuracy.”

“LLM/agent production specialist with strong customer-facing and pre-sales chops: turns demo-grade prototypes into reliable, compliant deployments using RAG tuning, guardrails, evals in CI, and observability with staged rollouts/rollback. Known for engineering-first workshops (including live break-and-fix on retrieval misses, tool timeouts, and prompt injection) that win over skeptical senior developers and drive adoption.”

“Backend engineer with experience in both healthcare (Siemens) and payments (Bitwise), focused on scaling Python APIs and modernizing architectures. Has led monolith-to-microservices migrations and introduced Kafka async processing, Redis caching, and ELK observability, citing ~40% faster issue resolution and improved reliability via idempotency and strong security controls (OAuth2/JWT, RBAC, RLS).”

“Full-stack engineer who built "Workstream AI," an AI-powered engineering visibility product that converts GitHub activity into real-time insights using an event-driven microservices stack (RabbitMQ/Postgres/Express) and GPT-4 with a React frontend. Previously a Founding SWE at a health & wellness startup, building data-driven user management tooling, and also delivered a real-time shuttle tracking/ride request system using Java Spring Boot/Hibernate + React; comfortable owning production deployment details (AWS EC2, DNS, SSL).”

“Built and owned end-to-end ordering and inventory/order management systems for a wholesale distributor, delivering an MVP quickly and iterating based on direct observation of daily users. Experienced with TypeScript/React + Node.js layered architectures and microservices using RabbitMQ, including real-world scaling issues (duplicates, backpressure) and observability practices (correlation IDs, structured logging).”

“Backend/AI workflow engineer who built a production event-personalization service (FastAPI + AWS Lambda) and solved real-world reliability/latency issues with deterministic routing, caching, and query/index optimization. Also built an end-to-end Gmail-based job application tracking agent using a lightweight RAG pipeline with Gemini, strong guardrails (Pydantic schemas, confidence thresholds), and offline regression tests to prevent drift and hallucination-driven data corruption.”

“Application-focused full-stack engineer in the clinical/health domain who shipped an LLM-powered clinical note summarization workflow end-to-end (FastAPI + Postgres + Kafka workers + React/TypeScript UI) with strong attention to security, auditability, and clinician trust. Has hands-on AWS/EKS operations experience and has resolved real production latency/scaling issues through async processing, query/index tuning, caching, and horizontal scaling.”

“Executive/engineering leader with 18+ years at an established company who helped turn a top-3 telco data opportunity into meaningful revenue and a continuing partnership to launch new data-driven products. Brings a security/privacy-first approach (compliance assessments and documentation) and a structured North Star + technical planning method for building with limited resources; interested in joining an early-stage founding journey with the right vision and team.”
