Vetted API Integration Professionals

“Full-stack engineer with deep experience in high-stakes integrations: owned end-to-end fintech payment notification/installment tracking at an early-stage startup (FastAPI/React/AWS), including multi-environment routing for live banking partners and reliability patterns like idempotency and retries. Also built a Coachella partner ticketing platform (React/TS/Node/Postgres) with strong concurrency controls and zero-downtime migrations, and previously delivered media-asset ETL/file-sharing automation at Sony Pictures using Frame.io with checksum-verified transfers.”

“25-year builder/operator who has scaled others' visions and led VC-backed startup incubation work (Saltmines). Built Bridgetree’s AI CoE from 0 to 1 and cites $20M+ measurable customer impact, with experience leading 110-person cross-disciplinary teams. Exploring a new venture idea (gotAgentic.ai) focused on agentic AI solutions such as AI-ready data prep, agentic SDLC teams, and front-office automation (scheduling/invoicing).”

“JavaScript/React/TypeScript engineer with hands-on open-source experience improving a hooks utility library—fixed a reported async race condition that reduced unexpected re-renders and added a debounced callback hook that became widely used. Brings a production-minded approach to performance and abstractions (APM/metrics-driven, DB/caching focus) with strong testing, documentation, and community support practices.”

“Backend engineer (Marsh McLennan) who evolved a high-volume claims automation pipeline in Python, emphasizing thin APIs with background job processing, strong validation/retries, and production-grade observability. Experienced in secure FastAPI API design (centralized JWT/RBAC), multi-tenant Postgres/Supabase-style row-level security, and low-risk refactors using parallel runs and feature flags; targeting founding-engineer scope roles.”

“Backend/distributed-systems engineer focused on automation and near-real-time processing, building Java/Spring Boot microservices with Kafka, PostgreSQL, and AWS. Strong in scaling and reliability work—debugging tricky asynchronous messaging issues (delays, duplicates, out-of-order events) and improving resilience/observability with retries, fallbacks, logging, and monitoring. No production ROS/ROS2 experience yet, but has studied core ROS concepts and draws clear parallels to event-driven architectures.”

“Forward-deployed software engineer at PayStand who uses LLM prototyping tools (e.g., Cursor, Lovable) to rapidly build customer-specific demo environments and drive sales outcomes—citing ~$100K in technical buy-in before production development. Experienced supporting an enterprise expense management product (Teampay) with agentic AI workflows, emphasizing observability (Grafana/Loki/Tempo) and cross-functional communication with sales, product, developers, and customers.”

“Built and shipped production RAG/agentic systems in high-stakes domains (biomedical and legal), including an enterprise biomedical document retrieval platform over ~10k scientific docs and a multilingual African-law assistant at the World Bank. Deep hands-on experience with LangChain/LangGraph/LlamaIndex and evaluation tooling (LLM-as-a-judge, safety/hallucination detection), with measurable gains in retrieval quality and hallucination reduction.”

“Frontend engineer with hands-on experience leading architecture and quality practices for React/Angular apps, including design system selection, code review/branching workflows, and Jest-based unit testing with a 100% coverage target. Built a React + TypeScript financial tool using Zustand/React-Redux, improved performance via lazy loading, and implemented input-sanitization utilities. Has managed fast-paced releases with Rally-based defect tracking and resolved a production deployment issue via rollback and YAML configuration fixes.”

“Frontend engineer who built uichallenges.design end-to-end in Next.js, delivering hourly AI-generated challenges across timezones and a CDN-backed gallery of 1k+ items while staying fast for 100s of weekly active users. Also led a full replacement of Zenhub’s kanban board, forking DnD tooling and adding custom virtualization + Redux to support thousands of items with real-time socket updates, shipped safely via gradual rollout with Sentry/Mixpanel and A/B testing.”

“Built and deployed a production LLM-based RAG agent platform adopted by multiple business teams (Marketing, GTM, Recruiting, Customer Support) to automate knowledge search, Q&A, and content generation. Emphasizes production-grade reliability (grounding/validation/guardrails), rigorous evaluation/monitoring, and cost-aware scaling via model tiering, prompt/retrieval optimization, and caching using LangChain/LangGraph orchestration.”
