Vetted Asynchronous Processing Professionals

“Built a production LLM-powered root cause analysis agent for supply chain alerts that helped operations managers avoid manual dashboard investigation. Demonstrates unusually strong depth in agent reliability, orchestration, and observability, with concrete production practices like hallucination blocking, shadow testing on 500 cases, and data-driven improvements that raised user agreement to 94% while cutting GPT-4 usage by 60%.”

“Backend/data engineer with experience at Nike building high-volume order orchestration and validation APIs using FastAPI microservices on AWS EKS with Kafka, Redis, and Postgres. Strong in production reliability (timeouts/retries/idempotency), GitOps (Argo CD) + Terraform deployments, and data pipelines (AWS Glue/S3), with hands-on incident ownership and legacy modernization into API-driven services.”

“ML/AI engineer with hands-on ownership of production computer vision and GenAI systems, spanning real-time public safety video analytics and RAG-based knowledge assistants. Stands out for translating research-oriented approaches into scalable, monitored production systems with clear business impact, including 50% latency reductions, 25% faster response times, and 40% lower document search time.”

Intern Software Engineer specializing in cloud, AI, and systems programming

Seattle, WA1y exp

“AWS intern who significantly evolved a Drift Audit Service backend (Control Tower/EventBridge context) to make drift findings more explainable and reduce false positives by adding a verification step in Lambda before event ingestion. Demonstrates strong API design fundamentals in Python/FastAPI (contracts, idempotency, security controls) and careful rollout practices (feature flags, canaries, phased deployments).”

Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in event-driven FinTech backend systems

San Francisco, CA5y exp

“Senior/Staff-level backend/platform engineer who owned Stripe’s global payout settlement system end-to-end, building an event-driven Python/Kafka platform processing millions of events daily across 30+ countries. Deep experience operating high-reliability distributed systems in production (incidents, replays/backfills, schema evolution, observability) and scaling on AWS/EKS with strong testing and deployment practices.”

“IAM/platform engineer with experience at DocuSign and Siemens who ships production-grade systems end-to-end: built a secure AWS serverless internal employee-profile API (OAuth2/Cognito/WAF) that cut data retrieval from weeks to near-instant and sustained ~2,800 RPS at ~75 ms. Also delivered production AI workflows, including a GPT-4o + Playwright crypto-scam detection agent and an NLP ticket-routing system improved to ~86.7% accuracy with strong monitoring and incident mitigation practices.”

Timothy Lee

Senior Full-Stack Engineer specializing in AI platforms and scalable web systems

Live Oak, FL11y exp

“Built and shipped production agentic/LLM systems that could safely perform real customer and subscription operations, not just answer questions. Demonstrates unusually strong depth in agent orchestration, tool safety, evals, tracing, and backend workflow design across Node.js/TypeScript, Go, Redis, Postgres, Kafka, and GPT-4.”

“Built and owned the end-to-end architecture for a Quick Flows “research card” backend at AWS, using an event-driven AWS stack (SNS/SQS, DynamoDB, S3) to support asynchronous research output processing and status tracking. Emphasized maintainability via unit tests, smoke tests, and CI/CD with staged environments (devtest and gamma).”

Sandeep Rohilla

Screened

Principal Backend/Platform Engineer specializing in GenAI agent orchestration and LLM pipelines

San Francisco, CA19y exp

“LLM-focused engineer/sales-engineering profile with hands-on experience productionizing complex systems: scalable distributed architecture, multi-tenant monitoring, canary/shadow rollouts, and robust fallback strategies. Demonstrated real-time troubleshooting depth (p99 latency spikes traced to DB connection limits causing retry storms) and strong developer-facing communication via RAG workshops and live, customer-specific demos that helped close deals quickly.”

“Built and shipped production AI systems spanning customer support automation at Uber, privacy-preserving federated health modeling on iOS, and an open-source semantic search layer for Postgres. Stands out for combining strong LLM/product instincts with rigorous eval design, measurable production impact, and zero-to-one execution across backend, mobile, and developer infrastructure.”
