Vetted Engineering Professionals in the San Diego Metro

“LLM/agentic systems practitioner who partners directly with customers to productionize prototypes end-to-end—defining business-aligned metrics, building evaluation datasets, and shipping monitored, cost-bounded inference APIs on AWS Lambda. Notably delivered a vehicle damage classification system that cut manual review by 40% and stabilized agent workflows by instrumenting state transitions to uncover and fix a race-condition-driven skipped tool call.”

“Robotics software engineer with internship experience at John Deere and AeroVironment, working across C++/Python stacks and ROS2-based systems. Drove a proof-of-concept migration from an x86/FPGA target to NVIDIA GPU solutions and helped turn a hackathon prototype into a production-ready, CI/CD-driven build-and-deploy workflow with comprehensive automated testing.”

“IBM Power/AIX infrastructure engineer who has owned a large enterprise footprint (40 Power8/9 frames, 400+ AIX LPARs) with deep hands-on VIOS/HMC, NIM, performance tuning, and PowerHA recovery. Demonstrated high-impact incident response (avoided DB reboot saving ~4 hours; restored clustered services in <20 minutes) plus strong RCA and preventative remediation. Also brings modern DevOps/IaC experience building GitHub Actions pipelines and Terraform-managed AWS EKS/VPC/RDS/S3 environments.”

“Qualcomm engineer building Android applications that run on Qualcomm AI accelerators, with hands-on experience in C++ concurrency, chipset stress testing, and power/performance tuning. Has deployed on-device AI models and built deployment/log post-processing workflows using Docker/Kubernetes and CI/CD; interested in translating this embedded AI/performance background into robotics (perception/real-time systems).”

“Backend engineer who built and evolved an internal multi-agent AI research platform (Electron + FastAPI) integrating OpenAI, focused on fast, reproducible experimentation with strong observability and run metadata for debugging. Has led incremental backend refactors with feature flags and parallel validation, and brings production-grade access control expertise from ServiceNow (table/field ACLs and row-level-style enforcement).”

Intern Robotics/Software Engineer specializing in autonomy, computer vision, and controls

San Diego, CA0y exp

“Robotics software engineer with a master’s focused in the field who has integrated a multi-sensor robotics fusion laser system (fault detection, PLC comms, PyTorch-based CV diagnostics, and an engineer-facing status front end) under NDA. Has ROS experience from the University of Michigan Autonomous Robotic Vehicle team using Nav2/SLAM Toolbox/Gmapping with RViz and ROS bag-driven debugging, plus Gazebo simulation work and upcoming drone path-planning optimization research.”

“Software engineer intern at Nutanix who independently shipped and maintained an internal smoke-test/failure-analysis dashboard, integrating failure data from multiple upstream systems (e.g., Jira, Jenkins, CircleCI) via REST APIs. Also has prior data-science experience building Postgres-based asset management analytics with automated reporting and indexing for faster time-series retrieval.”
