Mid-level Full-Stack Developer specializing in Next.js, AI-driven apps, and payments

Calgary, AB4y exp

“Frontend engineer who has led complex React + TypeScript products end-to-end, including a real-time canvas-based digital signature editor and a multi-step AI workflow dashboard. Demonstrates strong architecture and performance instincts (state machines for streaming async updates, bundle/render optimizations) plus pragmatic shipping practices (feature flags, automated tests, analytics and user interviews), with a quantified impact from refactoring (~30% less duplicated UI code).”

“Built and productionized an LLM-driven document verification workflow for a construction firm’s submittals process, moving from a Vercel/Next.js prototype to a FastAPI + LangChain/LangGraph backend with background workers and multi-server deployment. Uses LLM tools (e.g., OpenAI Codex/Cloud Code) for rapid development and log-driven root cause analysis, and partners with customer teams on evaluation metrics and iterative improvements.”

“Robotics software engineer/researcher focused on perception, SLAM, and sensor fusion, with hands-on experience taking systems from simulation to embedded/real-time deployment. Led transparent-surface (glass) detection using GDNet and achieved a major real-time speedup (~7–9 FPS to ~30 FPS) while preserving >90% recall, and has built ROS-based EKF GPS-IMU fusion plus profiled/optimized Visual SLAM for performance and memory stability. Also brings production-style deployment skills via Docker/Kubernetes orchestration of ML inference services with autoscaling and model update rollouts.”

“Software engineer with strong full-stack and platform experience (TypeScript/React/Node.js) who has built real-time analytics dashboards and microservices using RabbitMQ. Demonstrates production-minded decision-making under launch pressure (manual fallback for payment-impacting third-party API issues) and has delivered internal DevOps tooling that automates compliance checks via GitHub/Jira integrations.”

“AI/ML infrastructure-focused engineer who has built production RAG systems from scratch (Supabase/pgvector + OpenAI embeddings) and iterated using formal eval metrics to improve retrieval quality. Also debugged real-time audio issues in a LiveKit-based pipeline by correlating packet loss with VAD behavior, and has deep experience building brittle, customer-specific financial platform integrations in Python/Playwright (2FA, redirects, token refresh, rate limits).”

“Backend engineer at Cerebrone.ai building cloud-native Flask microservices for an AI-driven automation platform on GCP (Cloud Run/App Engine), including dedicated inference services integrating OpenAI and internal ML pipelines. Demonstrated strong performance and scalability wins across Postgres/SQLAlchemy optimization, multi-tenant (healthcare/HIPAA-grade) data isolation, and high-throughput background processing with Celery/Redis/RabbitMQ, with multiple quantified latency/CPU/throughput improvements.”

“Robotics-focused engineer from a senior capstone who built the backend motion-control software for a semi-autonomous line-following vehicle split across two ESP32s. Experienced in ROS 2 (DDS, lifecycle nodes, QoS) and in bridging microcontroller telemetry to a laptop ROS 2 stack over UART with custom structured protocols, using Gazebo simulation to tune PID and validate behavior before deploying to hardware.”

“Founder of an LLC operating as a consulting firm providing fractional CTO services to startups, giving them parallel exposure to multiple early-stage companies. Has direct experience with MVP development, building org structures from scratch, and supporting early fundraising, and is exploring a pivot from consulting into a scalable product business while staying engaged with the VC/accelerator ecosystem.”

“Cross-functional product/engineering leader with startup and enterprise experience (Whimstay, Wells Fargo, Leap AI Technologies). Has owned end-to-end delivery including UI and payment architecture—built a multi-customer reservation payment flow using pre-auth plus event/timer-driven reminders and handled tricky edge cases like date changeover. Also introduced lightweight process (Jira, sprints, team/module structuring) to increase delivery speed in an early-stage AI document-matching startup.”

Junior Game Programmer specializing in Unity and Unreal Engine

2y exp

“Solo developer who shipped an Android game (Master Caster) built around touch gesture recognition (P$ algorithm) and data-driven potion/ingredient systems using JSON/dictionaries. Has hands-on experience optimizing Unity projects for mobile constraints (framerate, heat/battery) using techniques directly applicable to VR, and is actively porting the game to VR in Unreal with a focus on accessibility and room/standing/seated play modes.”

ASHISH DONDAPATI

Mid-level AI/ML Engineer specializing in Generative AI for Financial Services

San Francisco, USA6y exp

“ML/AI engineer with strong financial-services domain experience who has built production systems spanning trade anomaly detection, investment-research RAG, and agentic LLM workflows. Particularly compelling for teams needing someone who can take ML/GenAI from prototype to monitored production while balancing compliance, latency, cost, and reliability.”

“Software developer with a one-year Philips co-op who has already applied AI-assisted coding in production, not just side projects. Stands out for using multi-agent development setups with task-specific sub-agents and a clear human-led orchestration philosophy focused on context, quality control, and security.”

“Built Nexthire-AI, shipping an end-to-end LLM-powered resume–job description matching product (React + Node.js) using embeddings and retrieval to generate match scores and skill-gap recommendations. Improved post-launch engagement by making feedback cleaner and more actionable, and added production guardrails (validation, timeouts, fallbacks) to handle messy resume formats and AI API instability.”

“Backend-focused engineer who uses AI tools pragmatically for rapid development while staying deeply attentive to concurrency, deadlocks, and system reliability. Built foundational AI retrieval architecture for MastadonTutorAI using ChromaDB and RAG pipelines, and is especially interested in applying multi-agent systems to automate complex backend testing and root-cause analysis.”

“Backend/platform engineer who has owned a Python/FastAPI results API and deployed it on Kubernetes with Helm and GitHub Actions-driven CI/CD. Demonstrates strong production operations mindset across performance tuning, monitoring, safe rollouts/rollbacks, and phased migrations, plus hands-on Kafka streaming experience focused on ordering and idempotency.”

“Backend-oriented software engineer who uses AI as a disciplined engineering accelerator rather than a replacement for judgment. They have hands-on experience coordinating multiple AI tools/agents across code generation, testing, debugging, and review, with strong emphasis on security, scalability, and human validation before production use.”
