Vetted Full Stack Software Engineers in California

“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.”

“Robotics software engineer who has built end-to-end pipelines spanning backend/data processing through model interfaces and hardware integration. Has hands-on ROS2 experience building Python nodes and debugging real-time behavior via profiling, publish-rate tuning, and latency fixes, plus experience standardizing multi-robot communication with QoS adjustments. Uses Gazebo simulation and Docker/CI/CD to catch integration issues early and speed iteration.”

“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.”

“Full-stack engineer with production experience building and owning high-traffic e-commerce checkout flows in Next.js (App Router) + TypeScript across microservices (REST/GraphQL). Demonstrated measurable performance wins (30% checkout improvement; 85% initial load reduction at 20th Century FOX) and strong production rigor (APM/logs, CloudWatch, Postgres indexing + EXPLAIN ANALYZE), including offloading PDF generation to AWS Lambda.”

“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.”

“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.”
