“Full-stack/backend engineer with experience spanning React/TypeScript, Flask, Spring Boot, SQL databases, and production mobile optimization. They’ve shipped features end to end, improved query performance and app startup/crash metrics, and helped drive a configuration-driven architecture that enabled faster releases across 30 consumer applications.”

“Backend/full-stack engineer who has built AI-powered search and workflow systems in production, including a semantic resume-matching platform for recruiters and internal security data dashboards at ReliaQuest. Stands out for combining modern AI tooling with pragmatic reliability, performance tuning, and strong product intuition in ambiguous environments.”

“Backend/data engineer who has maintained high-traffic FastAPI microservices and delivered a hybrid AWS serverless+containers platform using Terraform and GitHub Actions, with secrets managed via Secrets Manager/SSM. Also led modernization of a mission-critical 10,000+ line SAS financial reporting engine into Python microservices and built AWS Glue ETL pipelines feeding a centralized data lake.”

“Backend engineer/technical lead with experience building and operating real-time blockchain analytics systems at Merkle Science. Owned high-traffic Django/DRF services and Kafka streaming pipelines processing millions of events daily, with deep focus on performance (N+1 fixes, indexing, caching) and reliability (DLQs, retries, monitoring). Also led containerization and Kubernetes/GitOps-style CI/CD on Google Cloud, including a migration off Google App Engine to reduce cost and improve scalability.”

“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.”

“Backend engineer (Marsh McLennan) who evolved a high-volume claims automation pipeline in Python, emphasizing thin APIs with background job processing, strong validation/retries, and production-grade observability. Experienced in secure FastAPI API design (centralized JWT/RBAC), multi-tenant Postgres/Supabase-style row-level security, and low-risk refactors using parallel runs and feature flags; targeting founding-engineer scope roles.”

Mid-Level Software Engineer specializing in cloud-native microservices on AWS

New York City, NY5y exp

“Backend engineer with experience across healthcare and fintech platforms (Anthem, Citia) building high-throughput Python microservices with strong compliance/security focus (HIPAA, tenant isolation). Has integrated ML workflows into production systems (ResNet embedding-based image similarity) using async pipelines (Celery/Redis) and AWS (Lambda/S3/ECS), delivering measurable performance and fraud/content-integrity improvements at scale.”

“Healthcare AI engineer with hands-on ownership of production ML and LLM systems at McKesson, spanning clinical risk prediction and RAG-based documentation tools. Stands out for combining deep clinical-data experience, HIPAA-aware deployment practices, and measurable impact through reduced readmissions, clinician workflow gains, and 20% to 30% faster ML delivery for engineering teams.”

“Backend-leaning full-stack engineer who has shipped both enterprise workflow software and AI-powered document intelligence products. Stands out for combining practical product judgment with strong production debugging skills across Spring Boot, GraphQL, FastAPI, vector search, and RAG systems, and for improving adoption by making AI search experiences intuitive for non-technical users.”

“Backend/data platform engineer who has built and operated a cloud-native media ingestion/processing platform in Python (Django/DRF, FastAPI) with Kafka, Postgres, and Redis, emphasizing multi-tenant security and reliability. Delivered AWS production systems combining EKS and Lambda with Terraform + GitHub Actions/Helm, and built Glue-based ETL pipelines with strong schema-evolution and data-quality practices; also modernized SAS analytics into Python on AWS. Seeking fully remote roles with a $120K–$140K base range.”

“JavaScript/React performance-focused engineer who contributed upstream to an open-source virtualization/pagination library, fixing overlapping-fetch race conditions and introducing prefetch/deduping patterns that cut load times from ~3s to <900ms and reduced render thrash ~35%. Also built healthcare automation systems (clinical summary and claims triage), including a FastAPI + RAG pipeline that retrieved CPT/ICD evidence, improving decision accuracy from 67% to 86% and reducing turnaround time by 40%.”

“Backend engineer who built and optimized a high-traffic e-commerce platform in Python/Flask, focusing on scalability and reliability through service decomposition, Redis caching, and Celery-based background processing. Also integrated an AI intent-classification chatbot as a separately deployable inference service on AWS and has hands-on experience designing multi-tenant data isolation strategies in PostgreSQL.”

“Backend engineer with hands-on ownership of FastAPI/Django services using MongoDB and React integration, focused on production reliability and performance (Redis caching, Celery background jobs, automated testing). Has delivered AWS container deployments via GitHub Actions to ECR with scripted rollouts/health checks, and supported phased migrations with replication and rollback planning. Also built a real-time user-activity streaming pipeline addressing partition hot spots and consumer lag through partition-key strategy, idempotency, and monitoring.”
