Vetted Containerization Professionals

“Cofounder at MeowyAI who shipped a production multimodal (vision/voice/text) AI task manager using Gemini, tackling real-world issues like hallucinations, tool-calling safety, and RAG-based preference memory. Also built a production multi-agent RAG system orchestrated with LangGraph (and contributes to LangChain), with strong emphasis on latency optimization, observability (OpenTelemetry), and rigorous testing/evaluation including A/B tests and adversarial prompting.”

“Robotics software engineer with Amazon Robotics internship experience who built a visual-servoing architecture from scratch, navigating multiple simulator pivots to achieve a closed-loop motion-planning and execution prototype. Currently working with ROS 2 on a medical assistive feeding robot using the Kinova Kortex platform (MoveIt2, ros2_control, Gazebo/RViz), and has demonstrated strong real-time debugging and distributed-system synchronization using Carbon and Docker.”

“Internship experience deploying cloud-based services into production, including navigating security/resource provisioning and coordinating approvals across impacted teams. Built a Python backend for a local Ollama-based app using open-source models, and has hands-on distributed systems experience implementing and debugging Paxos with extensive logging/state tracing.”

“Backend/platform engineer with hands-on ownership of Python services (Postgres/Redis/Celery) and measurable performance gains (~20–25%). Strong Kubernetes + ArgoCD GitOps experience delivering zero-downtime rollouts, plus led key reliability fixes (readiness probes, immutable tagging) and supported an on-prem to AWS migration using CDC replication and ALB traffic shifting; also built Kafka real-time analytics pipelines with schema registry.”

“Backend engineer with healthcare platform experience at Thirty Madison, combining Django for secure, data-heavy core services with FastAPI async microservices for real-time patient monitoring. Led Kubernetes migration with Istio service mesh, autoscaling (HPA), and stateful storage patterns, and implemented GitOps CI/CD using ArgoCD. Also built real-time Kafka streaming pipelines with reliability patterns like idempotent producers and offset management.”

“Built a production internal knowledge assistant using a RAG pipeline over large spreadsheets, PDFs, and support documents, using transformer embeddings stored in FAISS. Focused on real-world production challenges—format normalization, retrieval quality, hallucination reduction (context-only + citations), and latency—using hybrid retrieval, quantization, and containerized deployment, and communicated the workflow to non-technical stakeholders using simple analogies.”

“Architect/engineering leader who built a multi-tenant AI platform end-to-end, including a secure FastAPI orchestrator (JWT, RBAC, tenant isolation, auditing) and an extensible MCP tool-routing layer, then productionized it via fully containerized microservices (Docker, Postgres/pgvector, Redis). Also has strong governance and compliance experience (ARB with security/privacy/SOX) and has owned high-severity incidents through mitigation and RCA/RCCA, plus prior high-volume payments/accounting data pipeline design with audit-grade integrity checks.”

“AppSec/customer security specialist with Atlassian enterprise cloud migration experience, advising on SSO and API token hardening and driving adoption through phased rollouts. Implemented Snyk (SCA) and SonarQube (SAST) in Bitbucket Pipelines with Jira-based vuln workflows, cutting critical vuln MTTR from 30 to 7 days for financial services customers. Strong in SSO troubleshooting (Okta/SAML) and secure AWS/EKS-based agent integrations with secrets management and Datadog observability.”

“Backend/data engineer with Optum healthcare claims domain experience building high-reliability Python microservices (FastAPI/Kafka/Postgres) and AWS data platforms (EKS, Glue, Redshift). Demonstrated strong production ownership: fixed duplicate Kafka processing via transactional outbox/idempotency, scaled to millions of daily events, and delivered major SQL performance gains (40+ min to <5 min, ~60% CPU reduction). Seeking remote-only work; targets $130k base.”

“Backend engineer who built gnocal, a ~150-line stateless Go service that turns on-chain event data into standards-compliant .ics calendar feeds consumable by Apple/Google Calendar, deployed on Fly.io. Also refactored MCTS into Monte Carlo Graph Search (Python-to-Rust) using deterministic tests and state canonicalization to handle transpositions, and implemented decentralized role-based ACLs in Gno for a smart-contract web hosting network (gno.land / All in Bits).”

“Built and shipped a production LLM-driven multi-agent platform (ciATHENA) at CustomerInsights.AI to automate analytics/ML/compliance workflows in healthcare and life sciences. Implemented LangGraph/LangChain orchestration with strong backend-style rigor (schemas, Pydantic validation, retries, auditability) and optimized latency/cost while keeping the system usable for non-technical users via guided natural-language interactions and structured/visual outputs.”

“Robotics-adjacent software engineer with hands-on ROS 2 experience building and integrating sensor nodes (IMU, GNSS, wheel encoder) and working with distributed pub/sub concepts via ROS IDL and DDS. Also has Gazebo exposure through Udacity coursework and uses Docker as a core development/deployment tool, with related experience in automotive camera-based solutions.”

“Backend engineer who built an event-driven, multi-service resume review system integrating AI/ML workflows. Demonstrated strong performance engineering (e.g., composite indexing dropping latency from ~600ms to ~35ms and major P95 gains) and high-throughput pipeline optimization via caching, batching, and worker concurrency tuning, with multi-tenant isolation implemented across DB and Redis.”

“Full-stack engineer (Snowflake) who shipped an AI/LLM-powered data exploration product end-to-end, spanning Spring Boot/Python services and a polished React UI with streaming responses and robust fallbacks. Experienced operating high-scale AWS deployments (Docker/Kubernetes, SNS/SQS, RDS Postgres, CloudWatch, Jenkins CI/CD) supporting thousands to tens of thousands of concurrent users, including handling real traffic-spike scaling incidents.”
