Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in distributed systems and cloud-native microservices

PA, USA2y exp

“Software engineer with ~2 years at UnitedHealth Group plus CMU coursework/TA experience, spanning backend modernization and cloud-native operations. Worked on migrating a customized open-source EDI system from Python 2 to Python 3 while improving SQLite database traceability via JSON exports, and has hands-on Kubernetes microservices deployment on Azure using Helm, HPA, and Jenkins-based Git-triggered CI/CD. Also built a large-scale real-time ride-hailing simulation using Kafka + Samza with explicit fault-tolerance strategies.”

“Robotics software engineer/researcher with hands-on experience building a MuJoCo-based digital twin of a 6DOF soft-actuated manipulator, spanning robot design, custom actuator dynamics, classical control (PID/MPC), and RL (imitation learning and TD-MPC2 model-based RL). Also has ROS1-in-Docker SLAM integration/visualization experience and delivered a major trajectory-tracking improvement (error reduced from ~100mm to ~5mm) via Savgol smoothing, plus prototype fleet communications work for a solar-powered power line inspection robot.”

“Full-stack engineer in the investment tracking/financial reporting space who built an automated reporting dashboard and compliance/reporting pipeline end-to-end using Next.js (App Router, server/client components), REST, and Postgres. Demonstrated measurable performance wins (~30% faster loads) through caching and query optimization, and built durable orchestrated workflows in n8n with retries, idempotency, and reconciliation checks.”

“Robotics software engineer who delivered the Lunar ROADSTER—an autonomous bulldozing rover for lunar terrain manipulation—building the control system, path planning, and perception in ROS 2. Implemented crater detection using a YOLO model fused with ZED stereo depth to recover crater geometry, and structured autonomy around ROS 2 actions integrated into an FSM with CI/CD-backed system testing. Also has industrial robotics experience controlling a Fanuc arm for additive manufacturing and building ROS interfaces for PLC I/O.”

Mid-Level Software Engineer specializing in real-time data pipelines and ML deployment

PA, USA4y exp

“Ticketmaster data engineer who built CDC-driven Kafka pipelines feeding Snowflake for analytics and data science teams. Hands-on in production operations—scaled Kafka during sudden playoff-driven transaction spikes and improved monitoring for preemptive scaling. Known for using small-batch experiments and quantitative metrics to align stakeholders and drive cost-saving architecture changes (e.g., buffering to reduce AWS Lambda invocation frequency).”

Junior Software Engineer specializing in scalable distributed systems and cloud platforms

Pittsburgh, PA2y exp

“Backend engineer with experience at UnitedHealth Group redesigning a high-traffic Spring Boot microservice from blocking to reactive architecture during peak season, cutting median latency by 47% for a service used by ~10M customers annually. Strong in Kubernetes-based deployment/scaling and pragmatic rollout strategies (blue-green/incremental traffic shifting) with performance and database troubleshooting.”
