Vetted Full Stack Software Engineers in the Bay Area

“Project lead who partners with PM and customers to gather requirements, adjust project plans, and deliver new functionality that drives customer satisfaction and revenue. Has experience building features end-to-end and presenting successful technical demos to engineering and management audiences; no stated experience with LLM/agentic systems.”

“Backend/full-stack engineer (5+ years) with Shopify experience integrating LLM/RAG workflows into production APIs. Owned a Python TensorFlow Serving inference pipeline connected to Java microservices via gRPC, optimizing tail latency at ~10k concurrent load and improving retrieval relevance with embedding and evaluation work. Strong Kubernetes/EKS + GitOps/CI/CD background, including monolith-to-microservices migrations and event-driven streaming patterns.”

“Software engineer with experience at PayPal and JPMC building large-scale onboarding/account setup systems using React/TypeScript with Spring Boot/Node microservices and Kafka. Also built an Ignition-based SCADA monitoring tool at Mainspring Energy that became the default for manufacturing/test engineers by aggregating real-time telemetry and historical test data.”

“Backend/platform engineer with experience across edtech, logistics, and AWS internal systems—owned a production course recommender end-to-end (model serving + APIs + caching/observability), delivering +30% CTR and -20% latency. Has scaled real-time delivery visibility/rerouting on Kubernetes/EKS to sub-200ms P95 during demand spikes and built billion-events/day telemetry pipelines on AWS (Kinesis Firehose, Lambda, S3, Redshift) with schema evolution, dedupe, and replay support.”

“Backend/full-stack engineer building complex internal platforms and customer-facing demos at the intersection of infrastructure and product. Shipped a no-code Product Lifecycle Manager for manufacturing (3 manufacturers, 1000+ evolving tests) using AWS S3/SQS ingestion and extensible Postgres (EAV+JSONB) with end-to-end traceability. Also built a FastAPI-based company data intelligence platform with Okta-secured RBAC and an LLM/MCP layer for ChatGPT-like analytics over enterprise data sources.”

“Frontend/full-stack engineer with Chegg experience shipping signed-in and top-of-funnel Next.js experiences, including leading an account-sharing/device-management MVP integrated with a Java Spring Boot service. Stands out for strong rollout ownership, analytics-based validation, and pragmatic security/performance decisions in production.”

Mid-level Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in backend microservices and enterprise AI tools

Redwood City, California5y exp

“Backend/platform engineer with experience across C3.ai (supply chain demand planning) and Amdocs (telecom), working on large-scale data systems and microservices. Has driven first-time adoption experiments of Snowflake + Spark to handle billion-record workloads, built Jenkins-to-Kubernetes delivery pipelines with Nexus artifact management, and implemented Kafka streaming between microservices with HA and retry/error-handling patterns.”

Junior Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in EdTech and AI-powered learning tools

Berkeley, CA2y exp

“Edtech/education-focused engineer who took an accessibility-critical LLM/vision feature from concept to production: built an OpenCV-gated whiteboard capture pipeline feeding Gemini Vision for handwriting-to-LaTeX, improving math transcription 80% while cutting inference costs 60%. Also built RAG observability and retrieval fixes that stabilized inconsistent answers, and partnered directly with sales to reshape demos and open a new K-12 revenue pipeline aligned to California Digital Divide grant requirements.”

“Full-stack engineer with strong enterprise delivery experience across manufacturing and semiconductor use cases, owning deployments from discovery through post-launch support. Stands out for combining traditional product engineering with applied GenAI workflows and data pipeline reliability work, including a manufacturing app that reportedly saved a Fortune 500 customer about $6M and an AI chat panel adopted by 70% of pricing analysts.”

“Backend-focused engineer with strong .NET/Angular experience building enterprise financial and healthcare systems, including microservice APIs deployed with Docker/Kubernetes and AWS ECS. Demonstrates production reliability skills across secrets management (Secrets Manager/IAM), incident response (CloudWatch + Kafka failover), and data engineering patterns from SSIS ETL (data quality, incremental recovery), plus proven SQL tuning with a 10-minute report reduced to under 30 seconds.”
