Vetted Engineering Professionals in the Raleigh-Durham

“Backend/data engineer with aerospace telemetry and reporting experience across RTX and other orgs, spanning Python/FastAPI microservices, AWS serverless/containers, and AWS Glue-to-Redshift analytics pipelines. Has led legacy modernization with parallel-run parity validation and incremental rollout, and demonstrates strong operational ownership (monitoring, incident response, and cost optimization).”

“Backend engineer who evolved and migrated a real-time smartwatch telemetry ingestion/analytics platform in a healthcare context, focusing on reliability under poor network conditions. Experienced with Python/FastAPI and Java microservices, PostgreSQL performance tuning, and production-grade security (JWT/OAuth, RBAC, RLS) with incremental rollout and parallel-run migration strategies.”

“Frontend engineer focused on technically demanding real-time visualization products, including dashboards for AI trainers and surveillance analytics tools. Stands out for combining React/TypeScript architecture, D3-based live visualizations, and production performance tuning to keep high-frequency data interfaces responsive under heavy load.”

“Software engineer who builds workflow-centric products end-to-end, including a customer-facing module on the Trident AI content platform and an internal content workflow tool adopted as the default process. Strong in TypeScript/React + FastAPI architectures and in scaling event-driven microservices with RabbitMQ, emphasizing reliability (idempotency, DLQs) and observability (correlation IDs) to reduce outages and debugging time.”

Mid-level Software Development Engineer specializing in Python, APIs, and AWS

NC, US5y exp

“Backend engineer with experience modernizing legacy systems and building modular Python/Flask services, including a REST-to-GraphQL migration for an e-commerce platform that improved API response time by 45%. Strong in performance and scalability work across PostgreSQL/SQLAlchemy (indexing, JSONB, N+1 fixes, connection pooling) and high-throughput systems (Celery + Redis), plus integrating ML microservices with TorchServe, Kafka streaming, feature stores, and Prometheus/Grafana monitoring.”

“New grad software engineer who has already built both a full-stack location-based social app and an internal AI on-call copilot using OpenAI and LangChain. Stands out for combining end-to-end product execution with practical LLM engineering, including RAG, fallback design, citations, and production evals, plus shipping a hackathon-winning MVP in 24 hours.”

Junior Embedded & Computer Vision Engineer specializing in Edge AI and QA automation

Raleigh, NC2y exp

“Built a Meta-style AI smart glasses system emphasizing on-device privacy and low-latency processing, spanning ESP32-S3/FreeRTOS firmware through an NVIDIA Jetson Linux edge-AI pipeline in Python/Docker. Strong in real-time streaming optimization (zero-copy GDMA, deterministic scheduling), encrypted transmission (AES-256), and reliability via stress testing and robust error handling; currently building CI/CD automation tests using Playwright and computer vision.”
