Vetted Containerization Professionals

“Data/ML engineer in financial services (Northern Trust) who built a production RAG-based LLM system to connect structured transaction/portfolio data with unstructured market and internal documents for risk teams. Strong in end-to-end pipelines (AWS Glue/Airflow/PySpark), entity resolution, and taking models from prototype to reliable daily production with performance tuning (LoRA + TensorRT) and monitoring.”

“Founding AI engineer at an AI SaaS startup who built the full GTM knowledge and retrieval stack for non-technical teams, driving 60% less manual effort and 25% faster deployments. Also brings enterprise B2B SaaS integration experience from Wipro, including external API/documentation work for large-scale partner ecosystems.”

“Full-stack engineer who built and scaled an AI-powered web product (React/Next.js + TypeScript/NestJS) with MongoDB, Redis, and RabbitMQ. Strong in rapid iteration while maintaining production quality—uses versioned APIs, feature flags, CI/CD, and observability (correlation IDs/structured logs) to ship frequently and debug distributed workflows. Also created an internal operations dashboard for real-time visibility and control of background jobs/AI workflows that was adopted quickly by ops and product teams.”

“AI Software Engineer (student employee) at University of Washington IT who helped deploy "Purple," a governed, explainable LLM platform on Azure used by 100,000+ students/faculty/staff. Independently led scalable reliability efforts by building automated agent quality/load/red-team testing and CI/CD health validation (Playwright/Node.js, Azure DevOps), and previously built an explainable AI scheduling assistant for clinical operations at Proliance Surgeons.”

“Infrastructure/automation engineer with experience bridging post-acquisition environments (Pandora + SiriusXM) by building an API-driven integration to provision Debian workloads on RHV while preserving iPXE-based imaging workflows. Strong in deep debugging across virtualization/network/OS layers (e.g., resolving virtio/vCPU contention causing network/NFS issues) and in extending automation tooling via custom Ansible/Python modules. Also has exposure to biomanufacturing on-prem devices (Hamiltons, shakers) alongside AWS microservices.”

“Engineering leader with recent hands-on depth across TypeScript/React, Go, and Python who led a 15-person team through a zero-downtime migration from a legacy monolith to a Module Federation architecture. Has B2B SaaS experience in an insurance agent portal, combining security and performance work through RBAC, OAuth 2.0, and edge-based authentication.”
