Vetted Engineering Professionals

“Robotics/embedded engineer with hands-on experience building real-time control systems on RP2040 (hydroponics automation, 1-DOF helicopter stabilization) and full ROS 2 navigation stacks in simulation (URDF, TF, PID, A* in RViz/Gazebo). Demonstrates strong low-level protocol work (timing-sensitive one-wire in C) and rigorous debugging across hardware and software using UART instrumentation and oscilloscope verification, plus reproducible workflows with Docker and CI/CD (GitHub Actions/GitLab, incl. Sandia National Labs).”

“Backend/data engineer with healthcare/telehealth domain experience, building patient appointment and data-processing systems on AWS. Has delivered production microservices and ETL pipelines (Flask/Celery, Glue/PySpark) with strong reliability/observability practices (JWT, retries/timeouts, Sentry/CloudWatch) and modernization experience migrating SAS workflows to Python services, including a documented 10min→30sec SQL performance win.”

“JavaScript/TypeScript engineer from Ridgeline who built a retry feature for failed staging-to-production promotions with pre-promotion health checks. Brings a backend-scaling mindset to runtime performance work (metrics-first bottlenecking, Big-O analysis, async/parallelism, caching) and leverages Cursor/AI tooling to ramp quickly on large codebases.”

“Robotics engineer who helped bootstrap Meta’s humanoid robotics effort, building simulation training and deployment infrastructure for vision-language-action (VLA) models. Evaluated multiple physics backends (Bullet, MuJoCo, Isaac, internal) to minimize sim-to-real gap and addressed control-loop frequency mismatches via sequence optimization/MPC-like approaches and trajectory-output modifications. Published research that contributed a new addition to ROS 2 and has built ROS2 node stacks spanning control, perception, teleop, tactile sensing, and imaging.”

“AWS engineering manager leading delivery for an end-to-end encrypted communications product (calling/messaging/screen sharing), including shipping read receipts with full design/engineering/QA ownership. Demonstrated strong customer-driven problem solving (offline/mission users enrollment via admin one-time codes with account allowlisting) and reliability improvements (data retention bot crash RCA, monitoring/notification, and high-volume test simulation).”

“Backend/AI engineer who built a production GPU-backed real-time inference API at Nvidia and debugged burst-induced tail latency, cutting P95 by ~29% through dynamic batching and backpressure. Also shipped an end-to-end RAG + agentic operational diagnostics assistant with strict tool controls, evidence citation, confidence gating, and strong production guardrails, plus demonstrated hands-on Postgres optimization (900ms to 40–60ms).”

Entry AI Software Engineer specializing in LLM workflows and ML pipelines

Redmond, WA2y exp

“Built an autonomous-agent document indexing concept in a hackathon with Microsoft and The Seattle Times, architecting an Azure-based system (Azure AI Foundry, Cosmos DB, Azure indexing, Copilot Studio) and coordinating closely with the customer team. Also created and pitched a sports matchmaking app (Ludicon), combining user studies, feature implementation, and technical support on sales/investor calls.”

Senior Frontend Engineer specializing in scalable web apps and UX

Mumbai, India15y exp

“Frontend/UI lead who drove an end-to-end Angular redesign at Ketto.org, creating a scalable design system and internal component library with 90%+ unit test coverage and ongoing performance work (FCP/TTI, SSR/CDN/caching). More recently at Google, built a complex React+TypeScript UX research platform syncing video playback with interactive transcripts (notes/tags/highlights) and shipped features via PRD-driven, phased rollouts with dogfooding and in-app feedback.”

Mid-level Software Development Engineer specializing in robotics and cloud-based device management

North Reading, Massachusetts3y exp

“Amazon Robotics engineer who deployed and scaled the Lumos camera-based package scanning work cell across EU sort centers (100+ work cells in 5+ sites), enabling remote launches via detailed runbooks and troubleshooting. Strong in AWS IoT/edge systems, with hands-on incident recovery (restored 34 down work cells) and secure multi-compute certificate provisioning using IoT Jobs, ACM/CA, and custom roles; delivered ~75% per-cell cost reduction vs Cognex-based approach.”

Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in distributed systems on AWS

Seattle, WA3y exp

“Data/infra engineer with AWS DynamoDB experience who has shipped reliability-critical systems (Global Tables replica repair protocol) and customer-facing service rollouts using canary/percentage-based deployments, strong observability, and rollback strategies. Also built end-to-end Airflow pipelines producing weekly automated reports over ~10TB of advertising segment data, with rigorous week-over-week data quality validation.”

Director-level Engineering Leader specializing in FinTech, IAM, and AI/ML platforms

SF Bay Area, CA22y exp

“Player-coach backend leader at PostLo who led a major backend architecture upgrade to enable AI-driven features by separating transactional systems from AI workloads (vector embeddings/image validation) and adding async processing for heavy jobs. Also owned production reliability improvements (query/index optimization, workload isolation, monitoring and load testing) and translated an ambiguous retention goal into a shipped cashback rewards feature with auditable transactions.”

“Engineer with deep hands-on experience building Square's billing and payments platform in a startup-like environment inside a larger company. They drove a high-stakes PostgreSQL migration, built merchant-facing full-stack features across React/TypeScript, Go, and Python, and designed for PCI-compliant, high-throughput financial workflows with strong observability and production rigor.”
