Vetted Bash Professionals

“At PwC, built and productionized an agentic RAG enterprise search assistant over 6M internal documents (8M embeddings), deployed across AWS and GCP. Drove major retrieval gains (72%→92% precision via BM25+dense hybrid with RRF and cross-encoder re-ranking), reduced hallucinations 30%, achieved <2s latency at 50–60K queries/month, and cut support tickets 30%—boosting adoption to 2,500 users by adding source-cited answers.”

“Robotics software engineer with hands-on experience building autonomy features across perception, planning, and systems integration—most notably for an autonomous lunar rover that detects and geometrically models craters to plan terrain manipulation. Also owned development of an autonomous stair-climbing module for a quadruped robot as an intern, and has real-time motion-planning/IK debugging experience on a Franka Panda using RGB-D (RealSense).”

“Worked on onboarding a Middle East logistics client processing thousands of invoices/month, building a production-ready pipeline that routes known vendor PDFs to deterministic regex parsers via Tax ID matching and falls back to LlamaParse for unknown layouts. Added financial consistency validation plus human-in-the-loop review and logging/metrics to continuously reduce LLM usage and improve template coverage.”

“PhD (CS) candidate with hands-on autonomy and robotics experience: improved safety-critical behavior for Kodiak’s self-driving 18-wheeler trucks, increasing overtaking clearance by ~2 feet and reducing safety alerts. Also debugged a C++ SLAM system for 3D colon reconstruction and built a low-budget distributed simulation cluster using Linux, Docker, and Python, plus implemented multi-hop SSH-based comms for an underwater robotics competition minibot.”

“Built and productionized an LLM-enabled system visualization web app at Longshot, designed modularly to pivot quickly to a mobile-friendly interface as customer needs changed. Experienced in diagnosing LLM/agentic workflow failures using observability, deterministic replay, and fault-tree root cause analysis. Also delivers developer-focused demos and trainings (including robotics deployment/mapping at Meta) and partners with sales as a technical closer, including for government clients by demonstrating failure modes and system modularity.”

“Full-stack developer with capstone and project experience delivering production-ready systems in unstructured environments, including a Faculty Tracking system for real departmental use. Strong in React performance debugging (re-render optimization with useMemo), Prisma-backed multi-database setups (MySQL local / SQL Server production on a UCI Health VM), and end-user support workflows that feed back into improved Help documentation.”

“Infrastructure/DevOps-focused engineer working across Linux-based enterprise platforms that include IBM Power/AIX in a broader OpenShift/Kubernetes and cloud ecosystem. Built Azure DevOps CI/CD for containerized deployments and resolved a production deployment failure by tracing ImagePullBackOff to outdated registry credentials in Kubernetes secrets. Uses Terraform (with modular structure) plus Ansible to provision and standardize production environments with pipeline-based validation.”

“Built and deployed a production RAG-based LLM Q&A and summarization platform for internal documents, emphasizing grounded answers with structured prompting and citations to reduce hallucinations. Experienced orchestrating end-to-end LLM workflows with LangChain plus cloud pipelines (Azure ML Pipelines, AWS), and runs iterative evaluation using both metrics (accuracy/hallucination/latency/cost) and real user feedback to drive reliability.”

“AI engineer building and deploying deep-learning-based optimization/control systems for petrochemical plants, with a focus on maintaining operational stability under real-world constraints. Core contributor to model and inference design; introduced a stability-focused non-linear objective and sped up second-layer optimization via on-the-fly first-order approximations. Experienced using Kubernetes for end-to-end testing and effective in translating customer expectations into measurable evaluation plots for non-technical stakeholders.”

“Backend-focused engineer who built a hackathon trading vault (AntiSwan) integrating the Polymarket CLOB client and applying the Kelly Criterion for allocation decisions. In an internship at StartupU, owned pre-launch monitoring by building Azure dashboards and Terraform/KQL-driven alerts with Microsoft Teams webhook routing, and previously automated a DynamoDB cross-region migration with integrity checks.”

“Cloud-focused DevOps/Infrastructure engineer with hands-on AWS high availability, migration cutovers, and production automation. Built Jenkins-based CI/CD pipelines (Git, SonarQube, Artifactory) and manages Terraform IaC with S3/DynamoDB remote state, PR-based reviews, and staged environment promotion; targets $160k base. No direct IBM Power/AIX/PowerHA experience.”

“Graduate robotics researcher (Georgia Tech/Georgia Tech Research Institute) who helped modernize the Georgia Tech Robotarium by migrating its comms stack from MQTT to ROS2 across MATLAB/Python and updating embedded Teensy firmware for new sensors. Currently validating ToF distance sensors and integrating IMUs, with planned GTSAM factor-graph SLAM sensor fusion; also debugged and improved a decentralized coverage-control algorithm at swarm scale (1000–2000 agents) using computational geometry and literature-backed methods.”

“FinTech/AI engineer who has shipped an end-to-end discrepancy-detection product for financial managers using Next.js, FastAPI/GraphQL, Pinecone, and AWS (with dev/staging/prod, observability, A/B testing, and documentation). Also built an AI-native “AI Genesis” system with agentic cyclic workflows, routing, and tool use, and has experience modernizing legacy systems via the strangler fig pattern while coordinating with senior stakeholders on a 5G autonomous simulation platform.”

“DevOps Customer Engineer (CircleCI) with hands-on experience supporting enterprise customers through a major security incident (token revocation/secret rotation) and advising on secure CI/CD practices. Experienced in integrating security tooling into pipelines (e.g., Snyk via CircleCI Orbs), troubleshooting complex CircleCI Server/Kubernetes-like deployments using logs/metrics/traces, and running structured multi-customer onboardings tracked in Jira/Salesforce.”
