Jianbo Wu
Mid-level AI/ML Engineer specializing in LLM reasoning and inference optimization
“Former Field Application Engineer at TestTorrent supporting proprietary hardware deployments. Built and integrated customer-requested benchmarking (including MLPerf-style work) by adapting GPU benchmark implementations and validating performance against NVIDIA baselines, plus delivered a backend fix that enabled customer performance testing and helped close a deal. Also has experience running models on AWS/GCP with multi-instance cost optimization techniques like memory offloading.”
Iaroslav Kovalchuk
Junior ML Engineer specializing in energy forecasting and battery optimization
“Backend/ML engineer working on a battery energy storage system operations dashboard: built a Flask backend integrated with OAuth and a separate FastAPI optimization/simulation service, deployed via Docker CI/CD to Azure Container Apps. Strong in productionizing ML (AzureML to batch endpoints) and in performance/scalability patterns (Postgres indexing/JSONB, per-unit data isolation, async throttling + caching for year-long CPU-intensive simulations across 40+ scenarios).”
Nithyashree Raghunathan
Mid-level Full-Stack AI Engineer specializing in agentic systems
“QA/data pipeline engineer with hands-on AI product building experience, spanning enterprise AWS migration testing for Belgium postal services and personal multi-agent systems in fintech and recruiting. Stands out for combining rigorous validation and production stability work with modern LLM orchestration, guardrails, and messy-document normalization workflows.”
Abdulla Chekfa
Staff Embedded/Real-Time Software Engineer specializing in EtherCAT and semiconductor automation
“Robotics software engineer with semiconductor wafer-handling automation experience at Mattson Technology, building C++ control software for ATM and vacuum robots coordinating through a load-lock (pressure/door/pump sequencing). Implemented multi-vendor communications with auto-detection across SECS serial and TCP/IP, and validated behavior using simulation + GUI animation, logging/sniffers, and hardware-in-the-loop testing; currently self-studying ROS 2.”
