Vetted Engineering Professionals in New York

“Infrastructure/automation engineer with experience bridging post-acquisition environments (Pandora + SiriusXM) by building an API-driven integration to provision Debian workloads on RHV while preserving iPXE-based imaging workflows. Strong in deep debugging across virtualization/network/OS layers (e.g., resolving virtio/vCPU contention causing network/NFS issues) and in extending automation tooling via custom Ansible/Python modules. Also has exposure to biomanufacturing on-prem devices (Hamiltons, shakers) alongside AWS microservices.”

“CMS-focused developer who has built internal dashboard widgets to migrate and publish client website data when standard tooling fell short, with strong attention to data integrity and rollback. Proactively pushed a hardcoded client homepage toward an admin-configurable widget by creating wireframes and advocating for maintainability. Uses LLM tools to speed up personal automation projects, including Blender-based SVG-to-3D batch processing.”

“Software intern at BestWork who owned an AI-powered sales performance chatbot end-to-end: React/Material UI frontend, TypeScript AWS Lambda backend, and AWS Bedrock (Llama 3) + OpenSearch knowledge base over Salesforce/HubSpot data with Slack-based weekly summaries. Worked directly with the CTO in a high-ambiguity environment, including building an audio bot from scratch just in time for a client demo, and implemented metadata-based retrieval to handle multi-team knowledge base constraints.”

“Full-stack engineer with cloud and GenAI experience who has owned production features end-to-end, including a reporting dashboard optimized from 14s to 5s using query/API refactoring and monitored via AWS CloudWatch. Also productionized an OpenAI-powered chatbot using LangChain with prompt design, guardrails, and evaluation via production logs and user feedback, and has led incremental legacy-to-microservices modernization with parallel run to avoid regressions.”

“Backend engineer who has shipped both high-throughput real-time systems and production LLM/RAG features. Built a database-free, local-first messaging service (Node/Express/Socket.IO) achieving ~1,500 msgs/sec at <25ms p95, and implemented a Go-based RAG recommendation pipeline with strict JSON/schema validation, catalog grounding, fallbacks, and eval loops that cut hallucinations to ~1–2% while reducing LLM costs ~60%.”

“At Delta Airlines, built and shipped a production LLM-powered semantic search/troubleshooting assistant over maintenance logs and operational documentation using OpenAI embeddings and a vector database. Implemented hybrid ranking, query enrichment, and structured filters to improve relevance ~35% while optimizing latency via caching and vector tuning. Also designed a scalable Kafka + AWS (Lambda/SQS) ingestion pipeline with strong reliability/observability and an eval loop using real engineer queries and human review.”

“Backend/platform engineer with Optum experience owning a production FHIR Member Access API aligned to CMS interoperability requirements. Built and scaled Spring Boot/HAPI FHIR microservices on AWS (Docker/Kubernetes) with zero-downtime CI/CD, and operated them with strong observability (Dynatrace, logs/metrics, alerting) and incident response. Also implemented a Kafka-based FHIR bulk data pipeline with schema versioning, idempotent processing, and reliable backfills/replays.”

“Full-stack engineer with strong production ownership: built and operated a real-time transaction monitoring/fraud-alerting system using Java Spring Boot, Kafka, Docker, and AWS with CI/CD. Demonstrates metrics-driven operations (latency, stability, consumer lag, true/false positives) and reliability patterns for integrations (idempotency, retries/backoff, DLQs, reconciliation/backfills), plus modern React/TypeScript + Node/Postgres architecture experience.”

“Backend/data engineer with production experience building Python FastAPI services and AWS-native data pipelines. Has delivered containerized and serverless workloads (ECS/EKS/Lambda) with Terraform-based IaC, strong reliability patterns (JWT/RBAC, retries/circuit breakers, observability), and AWS Glue ETL into S3/Redshift. Demonstrated measurable SQL performance wins (40–50s to <4s) and owned real pipeline incidents through detection, mitigation, and prevention.”

“LLM-focused engineer with end-to-end experience shipping an OpenAI-powered edtech teacher assistant into production, using Humanloop-driven prompt iteration, rigorous observability (Datadog), and A/B testing tied to real learning metrics (25% comprehension lift). Also led adoption-driving technical demos at SiriusXM (event-driven AWS Lambda/Kotlin/CDK pipeline cutting processing from 24 hours to seconds) and partnered with sales at Spresso.ai to close eCommerce SDK deals and boost activation from 40% to 85%.”

“Front-end engineer with experience at Optum and Wells Fargo maintaining internal React/Angular component libraries and design-system-aligned UI modules used across multiple apps. Known for stabilizing shared libraries via semantic versioning, Jest test automation, and high-quality documentation, plus measurable performance wins (≈40% faster dashboard loads) through profiling-driven React and API optimizations.”

“Robotics software engineer with hands-on ROS2 experience building perception-driven navigation for AMRs, integrating YOLO11 + Depth Anything V2 and multi-sensor fusion (LiDAR/RGB-D/IMU) to boost pose accuracy by 30%. Strong in real-time debugging and edge deployment on NVIDIA Jetson (ONNX/CUDA), plus cloud-enabled telemetry (Azure) and simulation-driven testing (Isaac Sim) that cut physical test cycles by 25%.”

“Audio engineer with 10 years of experience using Pro Tools for sound design and music/SFX editing to picture. Has delivered educational longform content for Nearpod, including culturally specific music choices (e.g., oud-driven Middle Eastern cues) and prioritizes dialogue intelligibility through ducking and mix adjustments; typically turns projects around in 1–2 days using templates.”

“Robotics software engineer leading a GNSS localization effort that fuses GPS, wheel encoders, and camera data via a Kalman filter with robust sensor rejection. Has built ROS/ROS 2 packages (including GPS waypoint following and obstacle avoidance) and has field-tuned motion planning for an autonomous robot operating around penguins in Antarctica, plus handled Docker deployment on NVIDIA Jetson (ARM) systems.”

“Audio/music editor and mixer with Symphony Space promotional work (e.g., Uptown Showdown, Selected Shorts), focused on shaping emotion and pacing through tempo automation, tension-building harmonic choices, and precise cut-to-music timing. Pro Tools certified (Institute of Audio Research) with hands-on mixing workflows across Logic, Reason, and Cubase, and experience iterating based on commercial/producer feedback.”

“Cloud/DevOps engineer operating across AWS and Azure, running Kubernetes workloads with secure CI/CD (GitHub Actions/Azure DevOps) and Terraform IaC. Has supported AIX/PowerHA systems in hybrid environments—handling failover testing, incident recovery, and performance troubleshooting (including multipath/storage-path issues)—and has led cutovers by managing dependencies, rollback, and stabilization.”

“IBM Power/AIX infrastructure engineer who owned a very large production estate (12 Power9 E980 frames and 400+ AIX 7.2 LPARs) with deep hands-on expertise in VIOS/vHMC, DLPAR, and PowerHA. Demonstrated strong incident response (zero-downtime DLPAR fix; split-brain prevention during storage failure) and modernization skills spanning Jenkins/Ansible CI/CD and Terraform automation for IBM Power Virtual Server/PowerVC.”
