Clil Halevi
Junior Financial Markets Analyst specializing in quantitative research and FinTech
“Analytics-focused candidate with internship experience at eToro and strong finance/product analytics exposure. They’ve worked on market sizing for Nordic stock launches, replicated a classic behavioral finance study using Python and CRSP data, and built cohort, retention, and churn analyses that informed onboarding and engagement recommendations.”
Amarnath Kaushik
Junior Software Engineer specializing in full-stack systems and AI applications
“Full-stack AI engineer who has owned production deployments for both a voice journaling/emotional insights app and a RAG-based research assistant. Stands out for turning messy, failure-prone LLM and document pipelines into reliable user-facing systems through strong debugging, staged workflow design, and post-launch stabilization.”
Koushik Alapati
Mid-level Robotics Software Engineer specializing in perception, localization, and autonomous navigation
“Robotics software engineer with hands-on ROS2 experience building perception-driven navigation for AMRs, integrating YOLO11 + Depth Anything V2 and multi-sensor fusion (LiDAR/RGB-D/IMU) to boost pose accuracy by 30%. Strong in real-time debugging and edge deployment on NVIDIA Jetson (ONNX/CUDA), plus cloud-enabled telemetry (Azure) and simulation-driven testing (Isaac Sim) that cut physical test cycles by 25%.”
Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in full-stack platforms and applied AI
Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in distributed systems and ML infrastructure
Mid-level Robotics Engineer specializing in ROS2 autonomy and simulation
Dhananjay Dubey
Senior Full-Stack Game Engineer specializing in multiplayer Unity and mobile systems
“Unity/C# game developer with hands-on experience shipping large-scale multiplayer mobile games, including titles cited at 1M+ and 10M+ downloads. Combines real-time networking and physics optimization expertise with AI/MR research experience, including an IEEE-published sports coaching system using pose estimation, SMPL-X, and LSTM models. Particularly strong in latency-sensitive, cross-platform interactive systems spanning mobile, multiplayer, and mixed reality.”
PavanKalyann Kathiresan
Entry-Level Robotics Software Engineer specializing in ROS 2 autonomy and multi-robot systems
“Robotics software engineer focused on ROS 2 multi-robot coordination, having built task allocation and reliable inter-robot communication for simulated TurtleBot3 fleets. Demonstrates strong integration/debugging skills across Nav2 + gmapping (SLAM drift, TF tree, odometry/sensor fusion) and pairs it with production-minded tooling—Docker/Kubernetes deployments and CI/CD simulation testing via GitHub Actions.”
Darshan Vithlani
Mid-Level Growth Marketer specializing in paid media, demand generation, and marketing analytics
“Performance-focused paid social creative lead with deep Meta experience in DTC/eCommerce for a bridal brand, owning strategy, briefs, testing, and QA while delegating production. Known for rapid iteration (8–12 variants/week) and measurable lifts (2.8 ROAS; CPA down 25%+), plus strong UGC direction and landing-page alignment that materially improves conversion.”
Urvashi Dhingra
Mid-Level Software Engineer specializing in full-stack, cloud, and data platforms
“Backend/full-stack engineer who has owned production TypeScript systems in both fintech-style transaction/rewards flows and HIPAA-regulated healthcare platforms. Deep focus on correctness and reliability (idempotency, retries/DLQs, reconciliation, observability) plus strong infra automation (Docker/Terraform/CI-CD) and measurable performance wins (40% query improvement, 90% test coverage).”
Anar Nurizada
Mid-level Robotics Engineer specializing in simulation-to-real ML control
“Robotics/ML engineer who benchmarks and adapts open-source robot action models, building synthetic datasets in Isaac Sim and modifying vendor code to scale training across multiple GPUs. Also built a production-style computer vision pipeline at Zortag—training a tiny YOLO-based classifier for fake-vs-real label detection and deploying it in a real-time iOS app with additional display/spoof detection.”
Krishna K
Junior Machine Learning Engineer specializing in multimodal systems and LLMs
“Built and productionized a domain-specific LLM-powered RAG knowledge assistant at JerseyStem for answering questions over large internal document corpora, owning the full stack from FAISS retrieval and LoRA/QLoRA fine-tuning to AWS autoscaling GPU deployment. Drove measurable gains (28% accuracy lift, 25% latency reduction) and improved reliability through hybrid retrieval, grounded decoding, preference-model reranking, and Airflow-orchestrated pipelines (35% faster runtime), while partnering closely with non-technical stakeholders to define success metrics and ensure adoption.”
