Vetted Apache Cassandra Professionals

“Co-founded a Digital Loss Prevention (DLP) startup and raised $6M in seed funding by showcasing a controlled, laptop-based technology demo. Post-funding, drove MVP planning and execution by sequencing operations and assembling a team to build an appliance MVP, using an iterative build/evaluate/visualize approach.”

“Amazon Fire TV Devices engineer who built and shipped a production LLM-powered lab triage and validation system that grounds recommendations in internal runbooks/known-issue data and pushes evidence-based actions via dashboards and Slack. Emphasizes safety and measurability with structured JSON outputs, replay-based evaluation on historical incidents, and production metrics (e.g., disagreement rate and time-to-first-action), plus cost/latency optimizations like caching, batching, and rule-based fast paths.”

“Backend engineer with SAP experience modernizing a legacy Flask/PostgreSQL product master data platform into a modular, stateless, containerized service with Kafka-based background processing and improved observability. Also has hands-on academic/side-project experience operationalizing ML (NLP retrieval with TF-IDF/BERT via FastAPI and CV lane-edge detection inference APIs using PyTorch).”

“GenAI/LLM engineer and architect who built and deployed a production generative AI financial forecasting and scenario analysis platform at McKinsey, leveraging Claude (Anthropic), LangChain, Airflow, MLflow, and AWS SageMaker. Demonstrates strong LLMOps/MLOps rigor (monitoring, drift detection, automated retraining) and deep experience implementing global privacy controls (GDPR, differential privacy, audit trails) while partnering closely with finance executives and legal/IT stakeholders.”

“Full-stack engineer (~3 years) with eBay production experience building and operating high-scale, event-driven Python microservices for order processing and AI-powered recommendations (Kafka/Redis/FastAPI on AWS with Prometheus/Grafana). Also delivered polished React+TypeScript analytics dashboards and designed high-concurrency PostgreSQL schemas with significant latency reductions. Recently built AI-agent orchestration and an interactive node-based requirements dashboard for Siemens Polarion via MCP servers, improving user interaction by ~17.8%+.”

“Backend/AI engineer who built and scaled an internal AMD semiconductor manufacturing microservice platform (SMR), reworking a synchronous lot-request workflow into an event-driven RabbitMQ/Celery/FastAPI pipeline. Diagnosed and fixed peak-load reliability issues using deep observability and Kubernetes autoscaling, cutting notification latency back to sub-second and reducing duplicates via idempotency/DLQs. Also shipped an LLM-powered natural-language search with schema-constrained JSON outputs and guardrails, plus a plan-execute-verify Jira bug-resolution agent that can propose fixes and raise PRs under restricted permissions.”

“Engineering player-coach who recently shipped an agent-based workflow to extract key info from unstructured web data (browser agents + CDP) and populate daily digests/calendars, owning architecture through testing. Also built a Flask-based LLM evaluation and regression testing system using G-Eval/Confident AI dashboards, and applies a rigorous, research-driven approach to selecting third-party tools with stakeholder buy-in; has healthcare ops/onboarding workflow experience at Vivio Health.”

“Senior data engineer with experience in both healthcare (CVS Health) and financial services (Bank of America), building large-scale Azure lakehouse pipelines (30+ EHR sources, ~5TB) and real-time streaming services (Event Hubs/Kafka) for patient vitals. Strong focus on reliability and data quality (Great Expectations, monitoring/alerting, schema drift automation), with measurable outcomes like 50% runtime reduction and 99%+ uptime for regulatory reporting pipelines.”

“Full-stack engineer with hands-on ownership of a customer-facing advanced performance metrics experience in the Amazon S3 console, spanning React UI, Python/Node services, Redshift/RDS data access, and AWS IaC/CI-CD with CloudWatch/Route53 operational readiness. Demonstrates strong production instincts around resilience (partial failures, multi-region inconsistencies), progressive rollouts/feature flags, and reliable ETL/integration patterns (idempotency, backfills, reconciliation).”

“Backend-leaning full-stack engineer with e-commerce and analytics experience who modernized synchronous order workflows into a Kafka-based event-driven architecture (Java/Spring Boot) to reduce checkout latency and peak-traffic failures. Has built production FastAPI services with JWT/RBAC and strong testing/observability, delivered React+TypeScript reporting dashboards, and handled AWS scaling incidents end-to-end (RDS read latency mitigated with read replicas and query tuning).”

“Built and productionized an AI extension for JetBrains IDEs providing coding assistance, testing, security sweeps, and documentation generation using both an internal LLM and third-party models (e.g., Gemini, Claude). Experienced in diagnosing customer issues in real time (Slack) with structured follow-through (GitHub Issues) and driving adoption through developer-oriented walkthroughs and video demos.”

“Product-minded software engineer with experience shipping AI-powered financial insights (spend forecasting, cashflow, credit optimization) and building real-time analytics systems using React/TypeScript and FastAPI. Has designed microservices with RabbitMQ/gRPC and strong observability (Prometheus/Grafana/OpenTelemetry), and also built an internal Figma plugin adopted by designers that reduced export time by 50%.”

“Software engineer focused on reliability and scalable systems: built React/TypeScript dashboards backed by Java/Spring Boot APIs and designed Kafka-based microservices with strong contract/versioning discipline. Known for shipping incremental improvements with tight feedback loops and for creating internal observability tools that streamline on-call and incident diagnosis under high-traffic conditions.”
