Vetted Engineering Professionals in the NYC Metro

“Full-stack engineer with experience at Zoho and Amazon who has owned production systems end-to-end, including a monolith-to-microservices migration using Kafka and Cassandra that improved search latency ~25% and increased throughput without data loss. Also built a hackathon project (Buildwise) into a sold product for a construction company (AI-driven document compliance checks) and shipped an IoT-based parking availability MVP in 3 weeks.”

“Financial systems engineer who built an automated rebalance-day order reporting and analytics tool on kdb+ pipelines, cutting a high-visibility manual process from 2–3 hours to ~2 minutes and expanding it from North America to EMEA/APAC. Also proposed an early production RAG-based incident knowledge assistant trained on ServiceNow postmortems, with guardrails to scope retrieval by application.”

“Has experience improving an ad server workflow by standardizing genre selection with templates, enabling reuse across multiple accounts and measuring success via hours of manual labor saved. Also delivered an internal technical demo on a device-metrics-to-AWS-CloudWatch logging workflow using whiteboarding and PowerPoint to onboard a new team.”

“JavaScript/React-focused engineer with meaningful open-source impact: redesigned cache key normalization for a client-side data fetching/caching library using deterministic hashing, added robust test coverage, and collaborated closely with maintainers through GitHub PRs/issues. Also drives measurable runtime improvements by profiling hot paths, refactoring core abstractions, and validating with benchmarks/load tests; has taken ownership of unowned initiatives like improving relevance/ranking in an internal search platform.”

“Internship at Radar (geolocation infrastructure) where they owned automation of multiple geospatial data ingestion pipelines (including US/Canadian address ingestion), orchestrating Spark (Scala) jobs via Python-based Airflow and using GitOps-style CI/CD workflows.”

“Backend engineer with production experience on an AWS Lambda-based payment service (manually deployed) and hands-on modernization work using parallel-run + diffing to prove parity before cutover. Has practical production troubleshooting experience for batch/pipeline incidents using monitoring/logs and emphasizes idempotent rerunnable jobs for safe recovery; also improved GraphQL performance by refactoring overly broad queries.”

“Data/ML backend engineer with hands-on production experience spanning RAG services (LlamaIndex/OpenAI) and AWS data platforms. Has delivered Terraform-managed AWS architectures (Lambda + ECS Fargate) with secure secrets handling, built Glue-to-Redshift ETL with schema evolution controls, modernized SAS reporting into Python microservices, and achieved major Redshift query speedups (2+ hours to under 15 minutes).”

“Built a production-style PyTorch LSTM system that generates structured piano compositions from 1200+ MIDI files, then significantly improved long-range musical coherence by implementing Bahdanau attention based on research literature. Also has internship experience using Docker Compose for containerized backend workloads and has independently used Ray to scale ML experiments across multiple GPUs, including dealing with GPU scheduling/memory oversubscription issues.”

“Solutions Engineer focused on application and platform security for enterprise cloud-native deployments, advising customers on threat modeling and secure CI/CD practices across AWS and Kubernetes. Has implemented SCA/container scanning and vuln checks in pipelines, tuned thresholds to reduce false positives, and driven outcomes like faster security approvals and smoother production rollouts. Troubleshot high-load Kubernetes failures (OOMKills, registry throttling) and turned fixes into a standard tuning guide.”

“Infrastructure/DevOps engineer with primary ownership in enterprise Linux and AWS/Azure production environments (including financial systems). Built secure, repeatable CI/CD pipelines deploying containerized workloads to EKS/ECS and implemented Terraform/CloudFormation IaC with drift detection and rollback practices; lacks direct IBM Power/AIX/PowerHA experience.”

“Java full-stack developer who has owned data-intensive, customer-facing and internal web products end-to-end (React/Angular + Spring Boot), including CI/CD and production support. Demonstrates deep microservices experience with RabbitMQ/event-driven architecture, idempotency, DLQs, and compensating logic to maintain reliability and data consistency at scale, plus a track record of replacing spreadsheet-based ops reporting with an adopted real-time internal tool.”
