Vetted C++ Professionals

“Robotics software engineering intern at Bell Labs who overhauled indoor mobile robot localization in a ROS 2 stack, combining EKF + particle filtering with a neural network to handle BLE multipath disturbances. Delivered a major accuracy gain (~50 cm to sub-20 cm), earned a company Innovation award, published a paper, and saw the approach adopted across the company’s robot fleet.”

“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.”

“Built and shipped a production agentic LLM tool that helps internal teams update technical product whitepapers using plain-language edit requests, with strong guardrails (citations, verification, refusal/clarify flows) to reduce hallucinations and maintain compliance. Experienced taking LLM workflows from rapid LangChain prototypes to more predictable, debuggable LangGraph agent graphs, and orchestrating end-to-end ingestion/embedding/indexing/eval/deploy pipelines with Kubeflow.”

“Built and deployed a production chatbot on osvaldocalles.com and iterated through real-world LLM engineering issues: model quota/cost tradeoffs (migrating to Nova Pro), RAG accuracy via semantic chunking, AWS IAM/guardrail/security pitfalls, and Lambda/API Gateway streaming constraints (prefers JS for streaming layer). Experienced with agent orchestration using Strands SDK (AWS-focused) and LangGraph (Vercel/container deployments), plus evaluation pipelines using LLM-as-evaluator, dashboards, and staged model rollouts.”

“Robotics software engineer with hands-on experience building a vision-guided grasping pipeline on a 7-DOF Franka arm, implementing gradient-based IK with null-space optimization and RRT* motion planning in ROS1. Strong in sim-to-real deployment and real-world debugging—addressed frame misalignment via hand-eye calibration and centralized TF configuration, and reduced replanning/jitter by tuning a weighted pose filter using rosbag replay and variance/grasp-time metrics. Also built an ESP32-based mobile robot architecture combining embedded decision-tree control with WiFi/web high-level commands.”

“Engineering leader (12+ years Director, 17 years lead) focused on developer productivity and platform/framework work across Oracle, PlayStation, Workday, and CafePress. Notable for building distributed teams from scratch and delivering high-impact platform architecture—e.g., re-architected PlayStation’s upload pipeline to support 500GB–5TB submissions using browser-to-AWS chunked uploads with SNS/SQS and deduplication/resume support.”

“Amazon Alexa engineer who architected and shipped a GenAI Knowledge Agent used by 2M+ customers, focused on making LLM outputs auditable via citations and a verification layer that prevents hallucinations. Built the full vertical slice (FastAPI/LangChain backend + React/TypeScript streaming UI) while keeping p99 latency under 200ms, and has proven incident response experience on AWS (Lambda/DynamoDB scaling issues).”

“Entry-level full-stack engineer with internship experience at Amazon (Appstore IAP flow + uninstall recommendation workflow) and a health-tech startup (OneVector) where they built a DSUR reporting workflow end-to-end, including document generation, S3-backed versioning/metadata, and secure preview/download. Demonstrates strong production debugging and reliability mindset (instrumentation, deterministic retrieval, idempotent writes) and focuses on UX/performance in high-stakes user flows.”

“AWS intern who significantly evolved a Drift Audit Service backend (Control Tower/EventBridge context) to make drift findings more explainable and reduce false positives by adding a verification step in Lambda before event ingestion. Demonstrates strong API design fundamentals in Python/FastAPI (contracts, idempotency, security controls) and careful rollout practices (feature flags, canaries, phased deployments).”

“Early-career software engineer who owns revenue-critical invoice processing and internal ops tooling end-to-end. Has built TypeScript/React systems backed by MongoDB and Temporal, and designed scalable SQS-based onboarding workflows with FIFO/DLQ monitoring. Notably redesigned an Authzed SpiceDB authorization model, shrinking a 500+ line schema to ~20 lines while meeting sub-100ms p95 latency.”

“Customer-facing technical professional with Amazon incident-management experience who helps drive adoption of complex ML/LLM solutions by delivering hands-on demos and rapid model fine-tuning. Applies a disciplined debugging approach (repro + logs/metrics + severity triage) and maintains runbooks to resolve SEV2 issues in ~1 hour, while also partnering with sales/customer teams to ship patches and new features based on feedback.”
