Vetted CSS Professionals

“Software engineering candidate who built a compiler-like Python tool to translate between Python code and UML-style diagrams (and back). Also has hands-on AWS experience building a distributed pub/sub system using services like Lambda, API Gateway, ELB, WAF, VPC, and DynamoDB, plus ML projects using Kaggle datasets (e.g., diabetes risk analysis).”

“AIX/Solaris and IBM Power specialist who has led real-time performance recoveries for core banking/ERP workloads—diagnosing CPU/IO contention down to FC queue depth and LPAR sizing, restoring latency from 5s to 200ms. Experienced with POWER7/8/9 operations across HMC/VIOS/NPIV and live DLPAR resizing, plus legacy Solaris SPARC to RHEL x86 hybrid re-platform migrations with post-cutover Oracle performance considerations.”

“Backend engineer focused on Python/FastAPI microservices running on Kubernetes (AWS EKS) with strong GitOps/CI/CD ownership (GitHub Actions + ArgoCD). Demonstrated measurable performance wins (p95 latency cut from >1s to <200ms) and production reliability work across Kafka/Redis streaming and cloud-to-on-prem migrations (RDS/S3 to Postgres/MinIO) using parallel validation and checksum-based consistency checks.”

“LLM/agentic systems practitioner who specializes in moving demo-only assistants into reliable, observable, cost-controlled production services. Strong in real-time diagnosis of complex agent workflows (including tracing, loop detection, and guardrails) and in customer-facing enablement—running workshops, building tailored PoCs, and partnering with sales to close deals by proving reliability in high-risk pilots.”

“Full-stack engineer with strong data engineering and privacy-domain experience, having owned an automated Data Subject Rights (DSR) processing pipeline end-to-end across Azure SQL and GCP (GCS/BigQuery). Emphasizes production reliability via idempotency, validation checkpoints, structured logging/monitoring, and safe CI/CD-driven deployments, and has also built React+TypeScript + Node/Postgres web apps with scalable, maintainable architecture.”

“Full-stack engineer (SAP Labs experience) who built an end-to-end, real-time fraud detection system on Java 11/Spring Boot microservices with Kafka event streaming and a React/Redux analytics dashboard with WebSocket updates. Demonstrated strong production ownership by diagnosing a critical memory leak with Prometheus/CloudWatch + heap dumps and improving performance with Redis caching (40% faster queries), while also modernizing deployments via Kubernetes, Jenkins CI/CD, and Terraform.”

“Robotics/AV-focused engineer who built an end-to-end gesture controller for a GEM e2 autonomous vehicle using YOLOv8 pose and ROS, including model training, ROS perception nodes, and a safety-oriented state machine (stop override + hold-to-register). Also has internship experience at Intramotev integrating LiDAR object detection via Redis pub/sub and performing sensor-frame calibration (roll/pitch correction using ground-plane normals), plus Dockerized deployments and Gazebo-based testing.”

“Backend/data engineer with hands-on production experience building FastAPI services on AWS and implementing strong reliability/observability (CloudWatch, ELK, correlation IDs, alarms). Has delivered serverless + container solutions with IaC (CloudFormation/Terraform) and Jenkins CI/CD, and built AWS Glue/PySpark pipelines into S3/Redshift with schema-evolution and data-quality safeguards; demonstrated large-scale SQL tuning (45 min to 3 min on a 500M-row workload).”

“Backend engineer who built a serverless AWS Lambda microservices backend for a parenting assistance mobile app, including a personalized recommendation system optimized to sub-500ms via precomputed scoring and DynamoDB caching. Demonstrates strong production pragmatism: CloudWatch-driven performance tuning (provisioned concurrency), zero-downtime phased schema migrations, and robustness patterns like optimistic locking and request deduplication. Also led a refactor of an LLM RAG pipeline to improve retrieval quality and cut latency from ~5s to ~3s.”
