Junior Software Engineer specializing in distributed systems and FinTech

Durham, NC3y exp

“Built an end-to-end payment fraud monitoring dashboard with a React/TypeScript frontend, GraphQL backend, Redis hot path, and a production RAG chatbot, while solving real-time latency and scaling issues. Also shipped an OCR system on AWS EKS for a live manufacturing line at Troxler, improving production accuracy by 15% with custom preprocessing and model tuning.”

“Built end-to-end AI features across both fitness and insurance domains, including a full-stack personalized workout recommendation system and a production RAG-based insurance QA assistant at Relevance Labs. Stands out for combining backend/distributed systems skills with practical LLM architecture, evaluation, and risk-aware human-in-the-loop design; notably reduced unnecessary LLM calls by 40% while improving latency and answer reliability.”

“Backend engineer focused on scalable, security-first platform architecture—recently built an end-to-end centralized access-control system that launched successfully with ~50k early adopters and was designed to support ~10x traffic growth. Experienced in production authn/authz (token verification, handoff/session migration), and in de-risking migrations via feature flags, phased rollouts, A/B testing, and Splunk-based monitoring.”

“Robotics software candidate focused on simulation-to-learning workflows, building a novel-view-synthesis pipeline (USCiLab3D) with a multi-modal diffusion model and a LiDAR-driven, geometry-aware sampling strategy for selecting overlapping reference views across trajectories/seasons. Also designed coordinated motion planning for two Ridgeback-Franka robots in Isaac Lab for a non-prehensile collaborative task, augmenting controller limitations with RL-based self-collision termination states.”

“CMU candidate with hands-on experience taking LLM concepts from research prototypes toward production-ready designs (structured outputs, guardrails, failure-scenario evaluation). Also partnered with sales/customer teams at Mazecare to drive adoption with Dontia Alliance (largest dental clinic chain in Singapore) and engaged Singapore government stakeholders, bridging clinical workflow needs with IT security/integration concerns.”

“Robotics software engineer with Samsung Research America internship experience as primary developer on a real-time dense mapping system producing point clouds, plus a monocular depth-estimation framework using positional data. Hands-on ROS 2 and CAN integration from a University of Michigan autonomous shuttle project, and practical SLAM/motion-planning experience including handling the kidnapped robot problem and Dockerizing ORB-SLAM3 environments.”

“Built and deployed an on-prem, HIPAA-compliant LLM pipeline for oncology-focused clinical note generation and decision support, emphasizing grounded differential diagnosis and explainable reasoning via RAG to reduce hallucinations. Also created a LangGraph-based multi-agent academic paper search system integrating Tavily, arXiv, and Semantic Scholar with an orchestrator that routes tasks to specialized sub-agents.”

“Cloud infrastructure/product engineer with end-to-end ownership of cloud-native storage/observability products, including taking an internal CMS to Google Cloud Marketplace and scaling to ~40,000 deployments. Strong in Kubernetes-based platforms (Operators, microservices, RabbitMQ) and performance/scalability work (e.g., 200% cluster capacity increase) plus internal tooling that materially improved SRE/QA debugging and release velocity.”

“Game QA lead with 20+ years of tooling and workflow experience, most recently leading QA on a Unity-based MLB mobile title with annual releases and major feature updates. Led QA for the PS Vita port of Borderlands 2 focused on technical requirements, performance, and usability, including making a key ship-risk call to limit multiplayer players. Known for disciplined Jira/TestRail administration, strong cross-functional communication, and uncovering critical submission-blocking issues with clear evidence and repro steps.”

“AI engineer with production experience building a high-accuracy (98%) fraud detection system operating at real-time latency (1–2s) over millions of transactions, using a multi-model pipeline approach to meet performance constraints. Also implemented Airflow-orchestrated workflows (DAGs, retries, alerts) to replace brittle cron scripts and is currently pursuing a master’s project on real-time ASL-to-text conversion.”

“Full-stack AI/LLM engineer who has deployed a production LLM backend (Mistral 14B) on GKE to auto-transform datasets and generate runnable ML training pipelines, addressing hallucinations, schema mismatch, latency, and burst scaling with caching/prompt compression and HPA. Also has internship experience (Splunk, BlackOffer) delivering data automation and 10+ Power BI dashboards for non-technical stakeholders with measurable efficiency gains.”

“Product-focused full-stack engineer building a GenAI-powered case summarization workflow for a telemetry dashboard, spanning React/TypeScript UI (confidence indicators, reasoning traces) and Python/FastAPI backend with caching to control LLM latency/cost. Has operated services on AWS (ECS Fargate, RDS Postgres, S3) and Kubernetes, and has hands-on experience resolving real production latency incidents through query/index optimization and caching.”

“Robotics engineer who built a 6-axis force-torque sensor system end-to-end at ROAM Lab, including electronics, low-level drivers, and ROS2 live inference with time-series deep learning (ultimately a 1D ResNet) to handle highly noisy, session-shifting signals. Also upgraded tactile manipulation models to time-series inputs by modifying long-standing ROS architectures, and has prior experience in defense (L3Harris) with production-grade testing and code review practices; published work: arxiv.org/abs/2410.03481.”

“AppSec-focused customer advisor with hands-on experience integrating SAST/DAST/SCA into production CI/CD (Azure DevOps) and designing secure agent/scanning deployments in AWS (least-privilege IAM, private subnets, VPC endpoints). Demonstrates strong incident troubleshooting using logs/metrics/traces to diagnose load-related failures (timeouts/retry storms) and drive durable fixes, while tailoring risk/tradeoff communication across engineering, security, and leadership stakeholders.”

“Robotics software engineer with hands-on experience building a dual-arm (Kawasaki duAro) Cranfield assembly task-planning and motion-planning stack in ROS/MoveIt, using PDDL + behavior trees and OMPL for collision-free execution. Improved tight-tolerance insertions by integrating RGB-D visual servoing into the task planner loop, and also built an LLM-driven navigation pipeline with ORBSLAM3 for natural-language command parsing and real-time replanning.”
