Vetted Batch Processing Professionals

“Built and operated a production warehouse metadata collection platform at Sigma Computing, integrating Go/gRPC services with a TypeScript backend and MySQL, with strong emphasis on idempotency, retries, bounded-concurrency job queues, and Datadog-based observability. Also created Kurral (kurral.com), an AI agent runtime security and observability/governance SDK/proxy concept, iterating via pilot-customer feedback and market research; targeting founding engineer roles with $180–200k base and ~2–5% equity.”

Senior Full-Stack Engineer specializing in backend systems and AI applications

Remote13y exp

“Candidate is deeply focused on AI-native software development, using a deliberate planner/implementer agent workflow with tools like Cursor, Claude, and Kimi. They also built a personal project called Config Proctor, an AI-agent-driven Terraform/AWS self-healing system that identifies infrastructure configuration gaps and proposes fixes.”

“Frontend-leaning full-stack engineer who described owning an artist search and detail experience across UI, backend integrations, and data modeling. They show practical strength in scalable React architecture, TypeScript safety, and performance tuning, with a product-minded approach to shipping 0→1 features quickly and iterating after launch.”

Senior Backend Engineer specializing in distributed microservices and event-driven systems

Fremont, CA10y exp

“Backend engineer with production experience building a high-scale notification pipeline (~20M/day) using Java/Dropwizard with Kafka and Azure Queue, including DLQ/poison-message handling and the outbox pattern for reliability. Also led a batch-based migration of Yammer Messaging user data from PostgreSQL to Azure Cosmos DB for global multi-region scale, addressing throttling and network failures via retries, escalation policies, and dynamic throughput tuning.”

“Hands-on engineering manager at a marketing company leading a highly senior, distributed team (10 direct reports) while personally coding ~60–70% and owning end-to-end architecture across three interconnected products. Built agentic CRM automation and a reinforcement-learning-driven distribution layer for channel spend/bidding, with a strong focus on scalable design and observability (Prometheus/APM/logging) enabling frequent releases and few production incidents.”

Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in backend, cloud, and ML systems

Salt Lake City, UT4y exp

“Software engineer with experience across Goldman Sachs, BYU Broadcasting, Juniper Networks, and an edtech startup (Doubtnut), spanning data migrations, AWS-based media backends, and microservices observability. Built a Redis/ElastiCache caching layer in front of DynamoDB/S3 to improve media delivery latency and cost, and created an SEO indexing automation tool using the Google Search Console API that saved ~15–30 person-hours per day.”

“VC-focused sourcing candidate with a multi-channel approach spanning technical research communities (GitHub/arXiv/Hugging Face) and LinkedIn, plus access to founder networks like NVIDIA Inception. Has experience initiating cold founder relationships and progressing them through intro calls into deeper technical and business diligence, with a structured weekly pipeline/partner update cadence and thematic notes on frontier technologies.”

“Candidate is a hands-on engineer using AI as a controlled coding partner rather than an autonomous decision-maker. They have practical experience designing and leading structured multi-agent coding pipelines with specialized roles for code generation, review, and test coverage, and show strong judgment around reliability through schemas, guardrails, reviewer gates, and manual validation.”

Mid-Level Software Engineer specializing in Python, data pipelines, and FinTech systems

Remote3y exp

“Software/data engineer with experience at Google and on Bloomberg-related financial data modernization, building Python pipelines that convert legacy financial datasets into modern structures and iterating based on client feedback (e.g., adding historical change tracking for private placement data). Also built an internal Google usage-metrics dashboard pipeline using Protocol Buffers and scaled execution via sharded parallel cron jobs while scheduling off-hours to avoid impacting a testing tool.”

Mid-level AI/ML Engineer specializing in LLM infrastructure, RAG, and agentic systems

New York City, NY3y exp

“Stripe engineer who owned and unified multiple team RAG systems into a shared production platform used by 200+ internal operators, deployed on EKS with Kafka ingestion and hybrid retrieval. Drove measurable business outcomes including <400ms latency, ~35% inference cost reduction, ~25% accuracy lift via fine-tuning, and real-time auto-approval of 80%+ merchant compliance applications through strong observability and reliability patterns.”

“Backend/platform engineer with deep AWS experience who built a high-reliability ingestion platform (Lambda + Step Functions + DynamoDB) that became the single source of truth for training/qualification certification data across an AU region, handling high-volume async updates with strong consistency controls. Also led a major API migration from Lambda to ECS/Fargate to eliminate cold starts and increase throughput, and has hands-on EKS/Kubernetes operations plus Kafka partitioning/ordering expertise.”
