“Data/analytics engineer who owned Angi’s service-request funnel event pipeline end-to-end, routing events server-side to bypass ad blockers and recovering ~15% lost tracking at millions of events/day. Built Snowflake/dbt reporting tables powering Looker dashboards, with strong emphasis on validation, monitoring/alerting, and safe schema evolution. Also shipped a reusable flow state management backend service with TTL storage, CI/CD, and developer-friendly APIs.”

“Software engineer who built and launched an end-to-end Ad Scheduler that automated campaign creation across Google Ads and Meta using Azure Functions/Service Bus, PostgreSQL, and a React frontend—reducing manual marketing ops work. Also shipped a production internal RAG chatbot leveraging a data warehouse + Cube semantic layer, Gemini embeddings, vector search, and Claude, with Langfuse tracing and brand-based access controls; work was cut short due to layoffs.”

“Built a Python pipeline to monitor and classify public posts from sources like Hacker News and Reddit for SWE/tech job opportunities, with a strong focus on reliability, observability, and recoverable failures. Also currently building a court queueing system for the UCSD Badminton Club, showing an ability to turn messy, informal real-world processes into practical automation through iterative user feedback.”

“AI/ML engineer at MRI Software focused on taking LLM and RAG systems from prototype to reliable production. Notable work includes an AI automation system for migrating 1200+ legacy pages with 75-80% manual effort reduction, plus enterprise document-querying and reusable Python LLM infrastructure that cut lookup time by 70% and improved team velocity by 30-40%.”

“DevOps- and infrastructure-focused engineer who is already applying AI in practical delivery workflows, including Terraform, CI/CD, Kubernetes, and multi-agent automation. Stands out for combining AI-driven productivity with disciplined validation through testing, code review, and security checks, and for leading cross-functional AI integration across development, QA, and infrastructure.”

Principal Software Engineer specializing in cloud infrastructure and identity systems

Denver, CO17y exp

“Senior backend-leaning engineer with experience spanning an 8-person early-stage startup and production microservices environments. They helped deliver an MVP for a fintech/charitable donations product by building a resilient abstraction API across multiple rewards vendors, and more recently maintained Go services at scale with Kubernetes autoscaling for workloads reaching roughly 1 million requests per day.”

“Full-stack engineer with hands-on experience building real-time analytics and logistics platforms across modern JavaScript and Java stacks. They combine strong production ownership and database optimization skills with architectural leadership, including redesigning bottlenecks with SQS/Lambda and driving a monolith-to-microservices migration on Kubernetes that cut deployment time by 50%.”

“Frontend-focused engineer who has owned sophisticated browser UIs across marketplace and chat products, including a multi-role local commerce platform and high-usage chat experiences. Stands out for combining React architecture, browser-level performance debugging, and practical UX iteration based on real customer and vendor feedback.”

“Backend engineer with deep experience building and evolving financial-services workflow systems where correctness, data integrity, and reliable state transitions outweigh raw throughput. Emphasizes idempotent, contract-driven FastAPI APIs with defense-in-depth security (JWT + row-level security) and careful, low-blast-radius migrations using feature flags, dual writes/shadow reads, and incremental rollout.”

“Backend engineer who built and launched a warehouse locations/inventory microservice for Walmart, supporting a new product rollout with on-call war-room ownership and now running across all US distribution centers. Emphasizes reliability and correctness (background syncs, 2PC concepts, alerting) plus design-first API development in Python/FastAPI with OAuth/JWT and RBAC, and has led staged legacy-to-microservice migrations with continuous data integrity verification.”

“Backend/data platform engineer who has built and operated a cloud-native media ingestion/processing platform in Python (Django/DRF, FastAPI) with Kafka, Postgres, and Redis, emphasizing multi-tenant security and reliability. Delivered AWS production systems combining EKS and Lambda with Terraform + GitHub Actions/Helm, and built Glue-based ETL pipelines with strong schema-evolution and data-quality practices; also modernized SAS analytics into Python on AWS. Seeking fully remote roles with a $120K–$140K base range.”

“Backend/data platform engineer who owned end-to-end production services for a fleet analytics/GenAI platform, spanning FastAPI microservices on Kubernetes and AWS (EKS + Lambda) event-driven workloads. Strong in reliability/observability (OpenTelemetry, circuit breakers, idempotency), data pipelines (Glue/Airflow/Snowflake), and measurable performance/cost wins (SQL 10s to <800ms P95; ~30% compute cost reduction).”

“Robotics software engineer who built the software layer for an autonomous warehouse sorting system, spanning navigation/path planning, task scheduling, and backend services. Deep hands-on ROS 2 Foxy experience (Nav2/costmaps) and real-time multi-robot debugging, using simulation-driven analysis plus incremental/partial re-planning to handle dynamic obstacles in production-like warehouse environments.”

“JavaScript/React performance-focused engineer who contributed upstream to an open-source virtualization/pagination library, fixing overlapping-fetch race conditions and introducing prefetch/deduping patterns that cut load times from ~3s to <900ms and reduced render thrash ~35%. Also built healthcare automation systems (clinical summary and claims triage), including a FastAPI + RAG pipeline that retrieved CPT/ICD evidence, improving decision accuracy from 67% to 86% and reducing turnaround time by 40%.”
