Mid-level AI/ML Engineer specializing in LLM and enterprise generative AI

San Francisco, CA5y exp

“ML/AI engineer focused on taking LLM systems from experimentation to reliable production, including enterprise copilot and RAG-based knowledge retrieval use cases. Stands out for combining data pipelines, model training, inference optimization, automated evaluation, and safety guardrails, with cited impact including 20% throughput gains and 30% less manual evaluation effort.”

“Senior engineering leader with deep hands-on experience building and scaling high-throughput platform infrastructure, including a Qualys core data platform using Kafka, Cassandra, OpenSearch, Ceph, and API gateways. He combines architecture depth with people leadership, and has led complex cross-team initiatives such as rolling out a Kubernetes-based container platform across 20 application teams using a phased migration strategy.”

“Backend/AI engineer who has built a rule-service platform on AWS and evolved it into an agentic RAG system using LangChain, ReAct, tool calling, and LLM-as-judge review. Notable for combining heavy AI-assisted development with production safeguards like manual CR, CloudWatch monitoring, fallback strategies, benchmark testing, and user-feedback-driven model improvement.”

Executive technical founder and full-stack engineer specializing in AI, SaaS, and FinTech

New York, NY15y exp

“Engineer coming out of a venture studio as it winds down, now seeking another zero-to-one environment with strong studio support and go-to-market playbooks. They show a thoughtful founder mindset centered on rapid shipping, design-partner validation, lean execution, and testing whether users will actually pay for a workflow-specific solution.”

“Built and deployed a production RAG-based semantic search and summarization system for large legal/technical document sets, owning the full backend (embeddings, vector store, chunking, prompting) and driving a reported 40–60% reduction in manual review time. Experienced with LangChain/LlamaIndex plus Airflow/Temporal-style orchestration, and applies rigorous evaluation/monitoring (A/B tests, drift detection, staged rollouts) to keep agentic systems reliable. Also partnered with a supply-chain manager at TE Connectivity to deliver an AI inventory recommendation tool projected to drive millions in value.”

Mid-level Data Scientist specializing in anomaly detection and production ML

Pittsburgh, PA4y exp

“Interned at Backblaze building production AI systems for incident response and security operations, including an internal LLM-powered incident triage assistant that used Snowflake + RAG over historical tickets/postmortems and delivered results via Slack and a web UI. Emphasizes reliability (PII filtering, grounding, schema validation, fallbacks) and rigorous evaluation/observability (offline replay, partial rollouts, time-to-first-action metrics, Prometheus/Grafana).”

“ML/AI engineer with hands-on ownership of production computer vision and GenAI systems, spanning real-time public safety video analytics and RAG-based knowledge assistants. Stands out for translating research-oriented approaches into scalable, monitored production systems with clear business impact, including 50% latency reductions, 25% faster response times, and 40% lower document search time.”

Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in distributed backend systems on AWS

Seattle, WA4y exp

“Built production systems in the AWS ecosystem, including an internal AI assistant for diagnosing account transfer and permissions issues and an end-to-end account transfer workflow used by enterprise customers. Stands out for combining LLM/RAG design with strong distributed systems reliability practices, emphasizing guardrails, fallbacks, and operational trust in high-stakes workflows.”

“Software engineer at Intel who owns a production Go/Kubernetes backend for supply-chain transparency and end-to-end hardware integrity verification in a hybrid cloud setup (AWS control plane + Azure data plane). Also built and shipped an AI agent workflow for real-estate due diligence that turns raw Excel spreadsheets into structured investment outputs and auto-generated PowerPoint insights using LangGraph, with strong emphasis on verification, observability, and reliability guardrails.”

Aniket Singhal

Senior Software Engineer specializing in AWS-based distributed systems and FinTech platforms

Seattle, WA8y exp

“Backend engineer with Amazon experience building large-scale, automated financial/accounting and pricing systems on AWS. Designed a fault-tolerant Step Functions + DynamoDB workflow platform handling 100K+ messages/sec to compute fair values and generate journal entries in under 3 seconds, and led safe API refactors using shadow mismatch testing. Also uncovered a major legacy pricing bug (tax vs non-tax swap) that cut mismatch rates from 5–10% to ~0.5% and materially improved price acceptance/business outcomes.”

“Entrepreneurial candidate building an AI startup focused on helping companies find product-market fit. They are already at MVP stage with 3 beta customers and are using A/B testing for validation, showing early traction and a hands-on approach to customer-driven product development.”
