“Engineer with unusual breadth: from a tiny startup building racehorse medical-record systems on credit-card chips for live racetrack demos to modern AI-powered contract intelligence platforms in production. Brings hands-on full-stack and backend depth across React, Python, .NET, PostgreSQL, Kubernetes, and Azure, with a track record of making complex, reliability-sensitive systems work in real-world conditions.”

“Built a production LLM-powered analyst assistant at Discern Security to speed up SOC investigations using a RAG pipeline over security vendor documentation (Python PDF ingestion, vector search). Demonstrates deep, security-critical LLM engineering: structure-aware chunking with custom table parsing, grounded/cited responses, prompt-injection defenses, and post-generation validation, validated via golden datasets and adversarial testing; tool is used daily by analysts.”

“Software engineer who owned customer-facing, high-traffic TypeScript/React + TypeScript backend systems end-to-end, emphasizing safe velocity through feature flags, staged rollouts, observability, and rollback-ready incremental delivery. Reports shipping more frequently with fewer production incidents and faster recovery due to these guardrails.”

“Software engineer with experience at PayPal and JPMC building large-scale onboarding/account setup systems using React/TypeScript with Spring Boot/Node microservices and Kafka. Also built an Ignition-based SCADA monitoring tool at Mainspring Energy that became the default for manufacturing/test engineers by aggregating real-time telemetry and historical test data.”

“Full-stack engineer (~4 years) who has owned and shipped customer-facing SaaS onboarding and a role-based real-time analytics dashboard using TypeScript/React with a modular backend. Experienced in microservices with RabbitMQ and strong observability practices (correlation IDs, structured logging, queue metrics), and built an internal deployment tracker integrated with CI/CD that replaced manual spreadsheet/Slack processes.”

“AI/LLM engineer at Capital One who deployed a production RAG-powered fraud analysis and document intelligence platform using LangChain, OpenAI, Pinecone, Kafka, and AWS. Focused on reliability in real-time investigations via hybrid retrieval, schema-validated outputs, and LLM verification loops, reporting review-time reduction from hours to minutes and ~99% fraud detection precision.”

“ML/LLM engineer building production, real-time fraud detection for financial transactions using a two-tier architecture (fast ML + GPT) to deliver both low-latency decisions and analyst-friendly risk explanations. Experienced orchestrating end-to-end retraining, drift monitoring, and automated model promotion with Databricks Jobs/Workflows and MLflow, and partnering closely with fraud analysts to tune alerts, thresholds, and dashboards.”

“Software engineer with primary experience in Java and Python who also troubleshoots and optimizes JavaScript/React performance issues. Has handled customer-reported production problems via log-driven diagnosis and backend workflow fixes, and took ownership of simplifying and automating a service region-expansion process through time analysis and process documentation.”

“Worked on payments and wallet transactions, with an emphasis on observability and root-cause analysis. Delivered end-to-end A/B testing optimization and implemented Jenkins-based CI/CD automation that reduced manual implementation to 35% and cut deployments to ~2 minutes, with attention to operational considerations like on-call/call rotations.”

“Backend/ML-systems engineer with experience (including Amazon) building real-time face recognition services using PyTorch (MTCNN/FaceNet) and AWS (SQS/S3/Lambda/EC2) with a focus on low latency, burst handling, and cost control. Also led a revenue-critical legacy pricing workflow migration to a serverless event-driven architecture using strangler-pattern rollout, simulation-based validation, and strong security practices (JWT/RBAC/RLS).”

“Senior data engineer with experience in both healthcare (CVS Health) and financial services (Bank of America), building large-scale Azure lakehouse pipelines (30+ EHR sources, ~5TB) and real-time streaming services (Event Hubs/Kafka) for patient vitals. Strong focus on reliability and data quality (Great Expectations, monitoring/alerting, schema drift automation), with measurable outcomes like 50% runtime reduction and 99%+ uptime for regulatory reporting pipelines.”

“Data engineer with Intuit experience owning end-to-end, high-volume financial data pipelines (API/S3 ingestion, Airflow orchestration, Spark/PySpark + SQL transforms, Snowflake marts). Strong focus on reliability and data quality—achieved 99.8% SLA and cut discrepancies by 35% using Great Expectations, reconciliation, schema versioning, and automated backfills; also built near real-time Kafka/API data services with CI/CD and observability.”
