“Hands-on startup operator with experience across three startups, including companies built from inception and a PEAK6-backed environment. Particularly compelling for early-stage roles: they have rebuilt technical foundations, scaled platforms during growth, and pair strong product ownership with a practical, user-validation-first approach to building scalable systems.”

Director-level Engineering Leader specializing in SaaS platforms and AI systems

Remote, USA26y exp

“Entrepreneurial candidate building an LLC focused on applying AI to improve call center customer service, with an early go-to-market focus on local government call centers. They are already in discussions with a government prospect and have a clear thesis around solving high turnover and low knowledge retention through AI-assisted training and support systems.”

“Front-end engineer with strong browser UI and accessibility instincts, including ownership of a complex responsive color/style picker for a major paint brand and foundational theming work for a SaaS CMS. Particularly notable for combining progressive enhancement, cross-browser rigor, and accessibility leadership to make polished interfaces work reliably across devices and user needs.”

“Frontend engineer who led the end-to-end UI for an internal employee catalog tool at Genetec, building React/TypeScript dashboards with complex search filters. Emphasizes tight product-owner feedback loops (weekly demos), Figma-based design alignment, and disciplined delivery practices using CI/CD, automated tests, and version tagging for rollouts/reverts.”

“Built a production SQL chatbot for access-log analytics that replaced manual custom report requests with natural-language querying, using LangGraph and a ChromaDB-backed RAG pipeline for grounded, consistent answers. Implemented a privacy-preserving design where the LLM never sees raw customer data (only query metadata) and has experience building multi-agent/tool-calling systems with LangGraph (DeepAgents), including solving sub-agent communication drift via self-reflection.”

“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.”

“Backend engineer with American Express experience maintaining an internal Python/Flask rewards simulation microservice used by product analysts and QA. Demonstrated strong performance and scalability work: moved batch simulations to Celery, added Redis caching to cut DynamoDB latency, and tuned Postgres/SQLAlchemy queries with EXPLAIN ANALYZE and composite indexes (bringing API responses under ~200ms by queueing jobs). Also has experience integrating ML via Flask-based model-serving APIs (scikit-learn/LightGBM packaged with joblib) and designing multi-tenant data isolation and tenant-specific configuration systems.”

“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.”
