Vetted Engineering Professionals in the NYC Metro

“Audio designer/editor with a producer background who edits music and SFX as a compositional tool—shaping narrative tension in projects like a stop-motion horror short film and optimizing pacing for YouTube retention. Runs an end-to-end, template-driven post workflow (dialogue cleanup, bussing, automation, loudness targets, and stem deliverables) designed for fast, high-volume iteration.”

“Product-minded full-stack engineer who owns customer-facing products end-to-end and iterates quickly using MVP validation, feature flags, automated testing, and staged rollouts. Has built TypeScript/React systems with modular backends and designed microservices with async messaging (RabbitMQ), handling scale issues like ordering, retries, and idempotency. Also delivered an internal ops automation tool with a self-serve real-time workflow dashboard that reduced errors and drove rapid adoption.”

“Primary designer/implementer/maintainer of an open-source JavaScript library for programmatic SSML generation and validation in text-to-speech pipelines. Focused on safety-by-default APIs with vendor-specific extension adapters, strong backward compatibility/deprecation practices, and measurable performance gains by removing redundant validation stages. Emphasizes developer experience through example-driven documentation and systematic community issue triage.”

“Backend/AI engineer who has shipped production LLM systems end-to-end, including an AI request-routing service (FastAPI + BART MNLI + OpenAI/Gemini) that improved accuracy ~25% after launch via eval-driven prompt/category iteration. Also built an enterprise document intelligence/RAG platform on Azure (Blob/SharePoint/Teams ingestion, OCR/NLP chunking, embeddings in Azure Cognitive Search) with PII guardrails (Presidio), confidence gating, and scalable event-driven pipelines handling millions of documents.”

“Backend/full-stack engineer who has owned production TypeScript systems in both fintech-style transaction/rewards flows and HIPAA-regulated healthcare platforms. Deep focus on correctness and reliability (idempotency, retries/DLQs, reconciliation, observability) plus strong infra automation (Docker/Terraform/CI-CD) and measurable performance wins (40% query improvement, 90% test coverage).”

“Robotics/ML engineer who benchmarks and adapts open-source robot action models, building synthetic datasets in Isaac Sim and modifying vendor code to scale training across multiple GPUs. Also built a production-style computer vision pipeline at Zortag—training a tiny YOLO-based classifier for fake-vs-real label detection and deploying it in a real-time iOS app with additional display/spoof detection.”

“Built a contract and customer documentation retrieval solution for Urban Studio, designing a RAG + Elasticsearch hybrid search stack (RRF + cross-encoder reranking) with a strong emphasis on chunking/data quality and hallucination reduction. Experienced in diagnosing LLM workflow issues via observability traces and tailoring technical demos to developer concerns like reliability and high concurrency.”

“Full-stack/AI engineer who has shipped production systems spanning real-time analytics dashboards and an internal LLM-powered knowledge assistant. Experienced with RAG pipelines (embeddings/vector DB, semantic retrieval, query rewriting) plus evaluation loops and guardrails, and builds observable Kafka-based data pipelines monitored with Prometheus/Grafana.”

“Full-stack engineer currently building an employee management system end-to-end with React, Node/Express, and PostgreSQL, including JWT auth and RBAC. Previously worked at TCS on large-scale State Bank of India web applications, applying Redis caching, server-side pagination/filtering, and async job offloading to improve performance and reliability.”
