Vetted API Development Professionals

“AI product leader with end-to-end experience building revenue-generating products and internal AI platforms across legal tech, edtech, and neurofeedback healthcare. At Clio, they helped launch the company's first AI offerings, drove $60K MRR in two months, scaled the AI team from 15 to 45, and enabled 12 additional AI applications across the business. They also bring a strong human-centered AI perspective from building tutor matching, lesson-planning, and clinician recommendation systems.”

Intern-level AI/Full-Stack Engineer specializing in LLM systems and RAG

Mountain View, CA2y exp

“Product intern at KNEX who stepped into engineering ownership when the team was reassigned and shipped a lease abstraction AI agent that cut data-entry time by roughly 85% in a live CEO demo. Also built a full-stack agentic RAG app with React/TypeScript, FastAPI, pgvector, hybrid retrieval, tool use, and citation-based transparency, showing unusually strong end-to-end AI product depth for an early-career candidate.”

“Software Developer at Amazon Robotics who co-developed a congestion-aware path planning system optimizing robot routes across 23 warehouses. Built and operated a real-time, service-integrated pipeline using AWS (AppConfig, DynamoDB), Java, and Redis caching, and has hands-on experience debugging robot behavior on-site with rigorous testing and staged releases.”

“Spatial computing software engineer focused on making Apple Vision Pro/visionOS accessible, including building VoiceOver and Live Captions features. Debugged a complex Live Captions issue involving dual audio inputs during FaceTime screen sharing by leveraging iOS implementation docs and creating concurrent audio sources; also has safety-critical testing experience from train control systems and is interested in pivoting into robotics.”

“Built a production internal knowledge assistant using a RAG pipeline over large spreadsheets, PDFs, and support documents, using transformer embeddings stored in FAISS. Focused on real-world production challenges—format normalization, retrieval quality, hallucination reduction (context-only + citations), and latency—using hybrid retrieval, quantization, and containerized deployment, and communicated the workflow to non-technical stakeholders using simple analogies.”

“Backend-leaning engineer with experience at Dropbox, Wayfair, and Etsy who has led cross-product integrations and internal platform tooling. Re-architected a legacy promo code system from a PHP monolith to a Java/Spring Boot microservice achieving a 99% execution-time reduction, and built a React/TypeScript + Supabase product (press.social) with LLM-powered bulk parallel generation and a path to multi-tenancy.”

Senior Software Engineer specializing in cloud data platforms and Java microservices

Remote4y exp

“Backend/data engineer with experience building Kafka-driven real-time pipelines that support ML code deployment and downstream integrations. Currently migrating high-throughput mainframe (COBOL/assembly) processing to Java, using Spark/Databricks to preserve performance and employing rigorous A/B testing across dev/pre-prod/prod with years of historical data.”

“Backend engineer with end-to-end ownership of scientific and AI-powered systems, including neuron imaging pipelines at Monell Chemical Senses Center and an LLM-based structured information extraction platform for Wharton and PSG. Stands out for turning messy, compute-heavy workflows into reliable production backends with measurable impact, including saving researchers over 50 hours per week.”

Entry-level Software Engineer specializing in full-stack and embedded systems

Seattle, WA1y exp

“Backend/full-stack engineer on Qualtrics' Online Samples team working on audience sampling systems and APIs used by researchers. They have hands-on ownership of TypeScript/React/Express services, emphasize multi-layer testing and production observability with Splunk/VictorOps, and have built APIs for both internal and external developers.”

“Operator-investor with three distinct chapters in venture capital, product management, and entrepreneurship. They evaluated 3,000+ companies in VC, then led global compliance product work at Binance across 90+ integrations and 30+ markets, while also building Kidogi shop into a real business with ~400% revenue growth and AI-enabled workflow automation.”

“Former multi-startup CTO with experience supporting successful capital raises and working directly with boards/investors. Known for implementing operational systems that reduce client escalations (e.g., a status/semaphore overview board) and for building UX-forward MVPs that evolve into automated platforms, including a loan underwriting system for a small US lender.”

“Built a production RAG-based "knowledge copilot" for support/ops using LangChain/LangGraph, implementing the full pipeline (ingestion, chunking, embeddings, vector DB retrieval/rerank, guarded generation with citations) and operating it as monitored microservices with CI/CD. Also designed an event-driven, streaming backend for real-time inventory ordering predictions that reduced stockouts by 25%, and has hands-on incident response experience stabilizing LLM API latency/5xx spikes using Datadog/APM and resilience patterns.”
