Vetted Apache Kafka Professionals

“Data/AI practitioner who built a production LLM-driven healthcare claims analytics and dashboarding system to reduce avoidable ER visits—processing 1.4M+ claims, flagging 19% as non-emergent, and projecting ~$2.8M in annual savings. Demonstrates strong real-world LLM reliability and performance engineering (grounding, numeric validation, caching, materialized views, quantization) plus orchestration experience with Airflow and Azure Data Factory.”

“Built a production LLM fine-tuning pipeline for domain-specific code generation at Pigeonbyte Technologies, including automated collection and rigorous quality filtering of 10M+ code samples (AST validation, sandbox execution/testing, deduplication, drift monitoring, and human-in-the-loop review). Also implemented end-to-end ML orchestration in Apache Airflow with data quality gates, dataset versioning in S3, benchmarking, and automated model promotion, and has a reliability-first approach to agent/workflow design.”

“Full-stack engineer who built an end-to-end healthcare logistics application on a Microsoft services stack, delivering Spring Boot microservices and a responsive React frontend. Strong focus on production concerns—API performance tuning (indexing/caching/pagination) and microservice reliability (timeouts/retries/circuit breakers)—with Dockerized deployments and standardized Jenkins CI/CD.”

“Full-stack engineer with experience delivering an end-to-end NIH application using Angular and scalable .NET Core microservices backed by MySQL. Has hands-on depth in complex approval/workflow implementations (RBAC + workflow engine) and performance tuning for million-record, data-driven systems, plus 5 years with Java/Spring Boot microservices and React.”

“Built and deployed a production LLM-powered recruitment chatbot that automates key recruiting steps (sourcing, candidate engagement, screening). Strong in agent orchestration with LangGraph, including guided graph-based workflows, context-aware routing, and reliability measures like clarifying steps plus human-in-the-loop evaluation.”

“Application security engineer/advisor with hands-on experience securing AWS-based, containerized services and embedding SAST/DAST/SCA and container scanning into GitHub/GitLab CI/CD. Drove measurable outcomes (50% faster vuln triage, 40% fewer misconfigs) and has deep operational troubleshooting experience in Kubernetes (agent failures due to CPU throttling/network policies), plus pragmatic strategies to reduce developer friction and handle API rate limits.”

“Backend/ML engineer with deep fintech and marketplace experience: built a real-time financial analytics + algorithmic trading platform (Python/Postgres/Kafka/Redis) and drove major DB performance wins (10x faster analytics; sub-10ms response consistency). Also shipped an end-to-end ML recruitment matching platform (scraping/ETL/modeling/Django deployment) with reported 92% matching accuracy, and emphasizes production reliability via monitoring, blue-green deploys, and robust workflow error handling.”

“AI/ML practitioner with production experience building a RAG-powered contextual customer support agent, optimizing for low latency using vector databases and smaller LLMs. Also deployed a fraud detection model on Kubernetes with auto-scaling for heavy transactional loads, and improved chatbot accuracy by 15% through metric-driven testing and evaluation. Partners with Marketing on personalization/recommendation initiatives with measurable outcomes tied to customer feedback.”
