Vetted API Design Professionals

“Built a solo full-stack equipment manager app for the game Dragon's Dogma, scraping a wiki with Beautiful Soup, transforming data to JSON, modeling armor/weapon schemas, and integrating everything into a PostgreSQL-backed API with caching. Dockerized and deployed the application to the web.”

“Backend engineer who built and evolved a low-latency document search platform (C++/gRPC on Kubernetes with a vector database), emphasizing resilience under concurrent load through strict deadlines, retries, idempotency, and observability. Also experienced building secure, frontend-friendly FastAPI services (Pydantic + JWT) and executing safe incremental refactors using feature flags and parallel validation.”

“Frontend/full-stack engineer who built a fast-food ordering web app and a minimal one-page real-time admin dashboard (Supabase + Postgres) with role-based access. Emphasizes scalable architecture, strict TypeScript validation, and quality practices (error boundaries, backend validation, unit testing), and has experience refactoring messy codebases into reusable components with consistent Tailwind theming.”

“Full-stack JavaScript developer (Node + React) who built a CRM system end-to-end, including fine-grained access control (RBAC plus per-user permissions) and user activity tracking. Currently focused on performance optimization for a data-heavy web app, applying lazy loading, image compression, and pagination to dramatically reduce load times, and has implemented per-user API rate limiting to control request bursts.”

“LLM/AI backend engineer with hands-on experience taking customer LLM prototypes into production using FastAPI, containerization, CI/CD, and OpenTelemetry-based observability. Demonstrated measurable impact by cutting LLM costs ~40% and reducing workflow errors ~50% through schema-enforced outputs, better tool definitions, retries, and prompt/model optimization; also supports pre-sales via technical discovery and rapid integration demos.”

“Backend/infrastructure engineer in the EBS org focused on global server lifecycle and fleet reliability. Led a major modernization from manual, ticket-driven recovery to centralized Python services and operator tooling with DynamoDB-backed state, strong auth/allowlisting, and CloudWatch monitoring, plus an AWS Glue/S3/SNS data pipeline to join server and hardware datasets for global operational querying and automated recovery.”
