Mid-level Backend/Full-Stack Engineer specializing in AI and FinTech payments

Tempe, AZ4y exp

“Full-stack engineer who has owned an operational reporting/dashboard product end-to-end—building a React UI, designing/implementing FastAPI services, and deploying/operating on AWS. Demonstrates strong performance engineering (Postgres query/index tuning using EXPLAIN ANALYZE) with concrete impact (reports reduced from tens of seconds to a few seconds) and a reliability mindset across observability, migrations, and resilient third-party/ETL integrations.”

“Built and owned end-to-end production systems for a healthcare platform, including a predictive task recommendation feature (React + FastAPI + ML on AWS ECS) that cut backlog 20% and saved coordinators ~10 hours/week. Also productionized an AI-native RAG system (vector DB + LLM) delivering 40% faster query resolution, and led phased modernization of a monolithic FastAPI service into async microservices using feature flags and canary releases.”

Mid-level Full-Stack AI Engineer specializing in agentic AI systems

Tempe, AZ4y exp

“AI/full-stack builder with hands-on experience shipping healthcare, career-tech, nonprofit, and fintech products, spanning speech AI, browser extensions, agentic RAG systems, and enterprise ML monitoring. Stands out for combining strong technical depth with measurable outcomes, including reducing clinical call WER from 26% to 3%, building safe tool-using agents with rollback/RBAC, and delivering zero-to-one multi-tenant platform features in ambiguous environments.”

“Full-stack engineer with 3+ years using Java/Spring Boot (Citi) and React, who built a production observability dashboard monitoring 53 microservices across 17 clusters with real-time health/latency tracing and significant performance improvements (cut load time from ~10s). Also designed a serverless AWS face-recognition system (Lambda/S3/SQS) built to handle burst traffic (~1000 concurrent requests), demonstrating strength in scalable, event-driven architectures.”

“Software engineer with hands-on ownership of both fintech checkout improvements (saved payment methods/one-click checkout with tokenization and feature-flag rollouts) and production LLM/RAG systems for customer support. Demonstrates strong operational rigor via guardrails, evaluation loops integrated into CI/CD, and scalable data pipelines handling messy PDFs/CSVs/logs with reliability and observability.”

“Backend/data platform engineer who owned end-to-end production services for a fleet analytics/GenAI platform, spanning FastAPI microservices on Kubernetes and AWS (EKS + Lambda) event-driven workloads. Strong in reliability/observability (OpenTelemetry, circuit breakers, idempotency), data pipelines (Glue/Airflow/Snowflake), and measurable performance/cost wins (SQL 10s to <800ms P95; ~30% compute cost reduction).”
