“Backend/platform engineer who led an end-to-end Python (FastAPI) transaction analytics microservice for real-time financial monitoring, including SQS ingestion, scoring/aggregation, and low-latency APIs. Strong AWS + Kubernetes/GitOps background (EKS, ArgoCD, Jenkins, ECS/ECR, CloudWatch) with hands-on experience scaling event-driven systems and executing phased on-prem to AWS migrations.”

“Data engineer with Optum experience building end-to-end healthcare data pipelines for HL7/FHIR, processing millions of records daily across Kafka streaming and Databricks/Spark batch. Strong focus on data quality (schema enforcement/validations), reliability (Airflow monitoring/alerts), and analytics-ready serving in Snowflake powering Power BI/Tableau, with CI/CD via Git and Jenkins.”

“Backend/full-stack engineer with Blue Cross Blue Shield experience building a reactive, event-driven claims processing microservice platform on AWS (ECS, SNS/SQS) with Terraform-based IaC and strong observability (Dynatrace/CloudWatch). Demonstrated measurable production impact (32% less downtime, 24% higher processing efficiency) and deep database performance/migration expertise across MongoDB and Postgres.”

“Full stack Python developer who actively integrates AI coding assistants into day-to-day engineering work, including code generation, debugging, testing, and documentation. Has also coordinated multi-agent workflows across backend, frontend, testing, and code review, showing an applied, productivity-focused approach to AI-enabled software delivery.”

Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in distributed backend and AI analytics platforms

California, USA4y exp

“Full-stack engineer at BigCommerce who combines customer-facing deployment ownership with hands-on AI/LLM systems work. Built and launched merchant analytics and predictive inventory workflows using React, TypeScript, FastAPI, Kafka, AWS, and RAG-style architectures, and has real production experience debugging non-deterministic AI issues caused by data pipeline freshness and event-ordering problems.”

“Built and deployed a compliance-sensitive LLM pipeline that extracts rebate logic from hospital–supplier medical contracts, using multi-layer redaction (regex/NER/dictionary), schema-validated structured outputs, and secure placeholder reinsertion. Hosted models on Amazon Bedrock to avoid retraining on sensitive data and improved both accuracy and cost by splitting the workflow into a lightweight section classifier plus a fine-tuned extraction model, orchestrated with LangChain and evaluated via layered, test-driven agent assessments.”

“Backend engineer with Citi Bank experience building and operating a Python/Flask Personal Finance Manager platform at 1M+ transactions/month. Strong in secure API design, database performance tuning (PostgreSQL/Azure SQL), and production reliability (92%+ test coverage, load testing, monitoring). Also integrated an NLP expense-tagging microservice with caching, background workers, autoscaling, and multi-tenant isolation via RLS and tenant-aware JWT.”

“AI/ML engineer with production experience building a RAG-based internal analytics assistant (Databricks + ADF ingestion, Pinecone vector store, LangChain orchestration) deployed via Docker on AWS SageMaker with CI/CD and MLflow. Strong focus on real-world constraints—latency/cost optimization (LoRA ~60% compute reduction), hallucination control with citation grounding, and enterprise security/governance. Previously at Intuit, delivered an interpretable churn prediction system (PySpark/Databricks, Airflow/Azure ML) that improved retention targeting ~12%.”

“AI/ML engineer who built a production RAG-based internal document intelligence assistant (LangChain + Pinecone) to let employees query enterprise reports in natural language. Demonstrated hands-on pipeline orchestration with Apache Airflow and tackled real production issues like retrieval grounding and latency using tuning, caching, and token optimization, while partnering closely with non-technical business stakeholders through iterative demos.”

“Data engineer focused on building reliable, production-grade pipelines and external data collection systems on AWS (S3/Lambda/SQS/Glue/EMR) using PySpark/SQL, serving curated datasets to Snowflake/Redshift for finance and fraud teams. Has operated a large-scale crawler ingesting millions of records/day with anti-bot tactics, schema versioning/quarantine, and CloudWatch/Datadog monitoring, and also shipped a versioned REST API with caching and query optimization.”

“Data engineer/platform builder who has owned production pipelines end-to-end processing millions of records/day, with strong emphasis on data quality (quarantine workflows) and reliability (monitoring, retries, incremental loads). Also designed large-scale external data collection/crawling with anti-bot handling and backfills, and shipped versioned REST data services optimized for performance and developer usability in an early-stage environment.”

“ML/AI engineer focused on taking LLM products from experiment to production, with hands-on ownership of a RAG-based customer support system that improved response quality by 35% and cut latency by 30%. Stands out for combining product impact with production rigor across retrieval tuning, safety guardrails, monitoring, and reusable Python/FastAPI services that accelerated adoption across teams.”

“Backend/data engineer with hands-on production experience building reliable Python FastAPI services on Kubernetes and delivering AWS EKS + Terraform CI/CD with strong secrets isolation and rollback practices. Also built AWS Glue ETL pipelines into S3/Redshift with schema-evolution handling and data-quality controls, modernized legacy analytics into modular Python services with parallel-run parity validation, and has demonstrated SQL tuning impact (minutes to seconds) plus ownership of batch pipeline incidents end-to-end.”

“GenAI/RAG engineer who has deployed a production policy/regulatory search assistant for a financial client using LangChain + Vertex AI, FastAPI, Docker/Kubernetes, and Airflow-orchestrated data pipelines. Demonstrated measurable impact with 50–60% latency reduction and 70% fewer pipeline failures, plus KPI-driven grounding evaluation (90%+ target) and strong cross-functional collaboration with compliance/business teams.”
