Vetted Data Governance Professionals

“Backend engineer with Morgan Stanley experience building and owning an end-to-end Python FastAPI microservice for high-volume market data used by trading and risk systems. Strong in performance tuning and reliability (PySpark, Redis caching, async APIs), real-time streaming with Kafka, and production operations (Docker/Kubernetes, GitOps-style CI/CD, monitoring). Has led cloud/on-prem migration work across AWS and Azure, including fixing Azure Synapse performance issues via query and pipeline redesign.”

“Hands-on architect/executive who built a virtual sales platform from scratch with real-time video delivery and autoscaling global video nodes, while also operating at the stakeholder/roadmap level. Previously scaled IT as Arbonne grew from ~$11M to $1B in annual sales and led large digital transformation efforts including a 70-person team for princesshouse.com; also advises startups (e.g., SocialBud) on product expansion and roadmaps.”

“Built and productionized an enterprise retrieval-augmented generation platform for internal knowledge over large unstructured corpora, emphasizing trust via strict citation/grounding and hybrid retrieval (BM25 + FAISS + cross-encoder re-ranking). Demonstrates strong scaling and cost/latency optimization through incremental indexing/embedding and index partitioning, plus disciplined evaluation/observability practices. Has experience operationalizing pipelines with Airflow/Databricks/GitHub Actions and partnering closely with risk & compliance stakeholders on auditability requirements.”

“AI/LLM engineer with production experience in legal tech: built a GPT-4 + LangChain RAG summarization system at Govpanel that reduced legal case-file review time by 50%+. Previously at LexisNexis, orchestrated end-to-end Airflow data/AI pipelines processing 5M+ legal documents daily, improving ETL runtime by 35% with robust validation, monitoring, and SLAs.”

“Built and shipped production generative AI/RAG assistants in regulated financial contexts (S&P Global), automating compliance-oriented Q&A over earnings reports/filings with grounded answers and citations. Experienced across the full stack—AWS-based ingestion (PySpark/Glue), vector retrieval + LangChain agents, GPT-4/Claude model selection, and production reliability (monitoring, caching, retries) plus rigorous evaluation and regression testing.”

“Customer-facing data engineering professional who builds and deploys real-time reporting/dashboard solutions, gathering reporting and compliance requirements through direct stakeholder engagement. Experienced with Google Cloud IAM governance, secure integrations (encryption, audit logging), and fast production troubleshooting of ETL/pipeline failures with follow-on monitoring and automated recovery improvements; motivated by hands-on, travel-oriented customer work.”

“Full-stack engineer with healthcare domain experience (UnitedHealthcare) delivering real-time claims/eligibility dashboards using Spring Boot microservices and React/TypeScript, with strong AWS/Kubernetes DevOps. Demonstrated measurable impact through performance tuning (33% faster retrieval; 45% faster responses during a 60% traffic spike) and HIPAA-aligned security practices. Also built production FastAPI services for high-volume financial transactions with strong testing and observability (95%+ coverage; Prometheus/Grafana).”

“Engineering/product leader who builds business-aligned technology roadmaps and scales pod-based orgs with strong delivery discipline (OKRs, CI/CD, QA automation). Led a SaaS supply-chain application adopted by Fortune 100 customers, citing ~$4M MRR and ~87% gross profit, and has hands-on experience standardizing LLM + cloud/MLOps architectures with security/compliance guardrails. Also created the PISEK methodology and used it to run distributed innovation sprints (e.g., an AI ETA predictor moved from pilot to production).”

“AI/LLM engineer who built a production intelligent support system using RAG over a vectorized documentation library, addressing real-world issues like lost-in-the-middle context failures and doc freshness via automated GitHub-driven re-embedding pipelines. Emphasizes rigorous agent evaluation (component/E2E/ops) and prefers lightweight, decoupled workflow automation using message brokers (Redis/RabbitMQ) over heavyweight orchestration frameworks.”

“Healthcare-focused LLM engineer who deployed a production triage and clinical knowledge retrieval assistant using RAG and LangGraph-orchestrated multi-agent workflows. Emphasizes clinical safety and compliance with robust hallucination controls, HIPAA/PHI protections (tokenization, encryption, audit logging, zero-retention), and human-in-the-loop escalation; reports a 75% latency reduction in a healthcare agent system.”

“Data engineer (~4 years) with full-stack delivery experience (Next.js App Router/TypeScript + React) building a real-time operations monitoring dashboard backed by Kafka and orchestrated data pipelines. Strong production focus: Airflow + CloudWatch monitoring, automated Python/SQL validation (99.5% accuracy), and CI/CD with Jenkins/Docker; has delivered measurable improvements in latency, pipeline reliability, and query performance (Postgres/Redshift).”

“Solutions Engineer specializing in taking LLM copilots from demo to production, with a strong emphasis on enterprise security (RBAC/OAuth), grounded RAG behavior (cite-or-refuse), and operational readiness (eval loops, logging, runbooks). Experienced in real-time diagnosis of agentic/LLM workflow failures and in partnering with Sales/CS to run integration-first POCs that clear security and reliability concerns and accelerate rollout.”

“ML/AI engineer with healthcare payer experience (Signal Healthcare, Cigna) who has shipped production fraud/claims prediction systems using Python/TensorFlow and exposed them via FastAPI/Flask microservices integrated with EHR and Salesforce. Emphasizes operational reliability and trust—Airflow-orchestrated pipelines with data quality gates plus SHAP-based interpretability, A/B testing, and drift/debug workflows—backed by reported outcomes of 22% lower false payouts and 17% higher model accuracy.”

“Full-stack engineer with production experience building Java 17 Spring Boot microservices for high-traffic systems at Verizon and on a JPMC payments platform (funds transfer/validation using ISO 20022), plus modern React/TypeScript dashboards for ops and analytics. Demonstrates strong scalability and reliability chops (Kafka event-driven pipelines, Redis caching, clustering, BullMQ background jobs) and has built real-time apps end-to-end with secure JWT refresh-token auth and Socket.io performance tuning.”

“TypeScript backend/full-stack engineer who owned an internal business workflow platform end-to-end in production, including API/data design, relational DB integration, and enterprise integrations. Has hands-on experience operating workflow processing services with Kafka-style event-driven patterns, idempotency, exponential backoff retries, dead-letter queues, and strong observability, plus API design with OpenAPI/Swagger and token-based auth.”

“Operations transformation leader with private-equity due diligence experience who rebuilt KIO Networks’ operating model using ITIL/COBIT/ISO 27001, stood up a PMO, and standardized tooling across countries—helping shift the business from co-location to managed services/cloud and improving EBITDA from -7% to +4% in 18 months. Also serves as a board member/mentor at EvoNexus and UCSD Rady, coaching founders on ICP, GTM, pricing, and investor readiness.”
