Vetted Engineering Professionals

“Built a production RAG chatbot for Worcester Polytechnic Institute that indexes 500+ webpages using FAISS + Llama 3, with strong grounding/hallucination controls (confidence thresholds and citations). Also has internship experience orchestrating multi-step ETL pipelines with AWS Step Functions and delivered a 30x faster fraud/claims triage workflow at Munich Re using association rules and stakeholder-friendly dashboards.”

“Backend/platform engineer in healthcare and consulting (Molina Healthcare, TCS) who productionized real-time eligibility/authorization and care navigation workflows with strong reliability and HIPAA security. Demonstrated measurable performance gains (≈40% latency reduction, ~99% uptime) using Spring Boot APIs, SQS decoupling, Redis caching, and deep observability, and regularly leads technical demos that accelerate client adoption.”

“Frontend engineer who led an enterprise customer-facing analytics dashboard end-to-end, handling complex visualizations, real-time updates, and high-performance requirements. Demonstrates strong architecture and scale practices across React/TypeScript, Redux Toolkit/RTK Query, GraphQL, and performance techniques like virtualization and code-splitting, plus disciplined QA/rollout with feature flags, Cypress, Sentry/New Relic, and Lighthouse.”

“Built a production AI-powered sales automation system that reads inbound product enquiry emails, extracts structured data, and routes decisions via a rules-based workflow integrated with a product database. Leverages Gemini structured outputs/schema plus option-based prompting and validation to keep responses reliable, and optimizes latency by breaking agent reasoning into smaller LLM calls; evaluates workflows with LangSmith and metrics like completion rate and accuracy.”

Mid-Level Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in cloud-native APIs and AI apps

Oakland, CA5y exp

“Early-stage startup full-stack engineer who built an inventory and billing management product for retail shop owners in India, iterating quickly based on customer feedback. Has hands-on experience designing scalable cloud infrastructure on GCP with Kubernetes and applying clean architecture for testable, modular systems; also built internal monitoring dashboards for error and performance visibility.”

“Serverless-focused engineer (5+ years) who has built and deployed AWS Lambda/API Gateway backends with CloudFormation-based IaC and Jenkins-driven CI/CD across dev/staging/prod. Has experience with AWS Glue/OpenSearch data pipelines and emphasizes data correctness via Golden Data automated tests; also modernized a regulated .NET account-confirmation workflow by eliminating an unreliable SMTP email dependency. Based in San Jose, seeking primarily remote work with quarterly travel to Bethesda, MD and targeting $200k base.”

“Backend Python engineer focused on production-grade automation and reliability, with hands-on experience designing scalable API systems on PostgreSQL and making pragmatic architecture calls (modular monolith over premature microservices). Demonstrated measurable performance wins (50–60% latency reduction) and strong operational rigor via observability, incremental rollouts/feature flags, and security patterns like JWT + RBAC + database row-level security.”

“Backend engineer from insurance/enterprise platforms with a focus on high-performance, real-time, event-driven microservices. Brings strong distributed-systems communication design plus mature testing, Docker containerization, and CI/CD practices; no direct robotics/ROS experience.”

“LLM/agent production specialist with strong customer-facing and pre-sales chops: turns demo-grade prototypes into reliable, compliant deployments using RAG tuning, guardrails, evals in CI, and observability with staged rollouts/rollback. Known for engineering-first workshops (including live break-and-fix on retrieval misses, tool timeouts, and prompt injection) that win over skeptical senior developers and drive adoption.”

“Infrastructure security/DevSecOps engineer who led security and automation patterns during a large Azure migration (30+ legacy apps, wave-based execution), enforcing zero-trust controls by baking CrowdStrike/Illumio into golden images and adding CI/CD security gates. Experienced integrating GitLab runners and Terraform agents as containerized services with strong secrets management (Azure Key Vault) and disciplined image/versioning practices, and has hands-on troubleshooting of ACI runtime constraints under load.”
