Vetted Data Modeling Professionals

“Backend/data engineer focused on production ML/LLM systems: built a real-time FastAPI inference API on Kubernetes with strong reliability patterns (timeouts, idempotent retries, centralized error handling). Delivered AWS platforms using EKS + Lambda with GitHub Actions/Helm CI/CD and built Glue-based ETL from S3/Kafka into Snowflake with schema evolution and data-quality controls; also modernized legacy analytics/recommendation workflows into Python services with safe, feature-flagged cutovers.”

“Product and consumer growth professional from a B2C app background, focused on improving retention/activation and driving revenue through customer/product data. Experienced in maintaining BI layers and dashboards and running KPI-driven analysis across returns/refunds operations (NPS/CSAT, TAT, repeat complaints). Familiar with core F2P monetization mechanics and how to evaluate IAP offers via A/B testing; has shipped/managed products on mobile and web.”

“Built and deployed a production LLM-powered clinical support assistant at BJC HealthCare (RAG + transformer) to answer patient questions, summarize clinical notes, and support appointment workflows. Implemented PHI-safe data pipelines (Spark/Hadoop/Kafka) with automated scrubbing, dataset versioning, and audit logs, and runs the system on Docker/Kubernetes with Pinecone vector search while partnering closely with clinical operations staff.”

“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.”

Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in event-driven FinTech backend systems

San Francisco, CA5y exp

“Senior/Staff-level backend/platform engineer who owned Stripe’s global payout settlement system end-to-end, building an event-driven Python/Kafka platform processing millions of events daily across 30+ countries. Deep experience operating high-reliability distributed systems in production (incidents, replays/backfills, schema evolution, observability) and scaling on AWS/EKS with strong testing and deployment practices.”

“Engineering leader with experience building point-of-care diagnostics platforms (IoT-connected PCR device delivering results in <15 minutes) and scaling multidisciplinary teams (55+). Has led major data/IoT architecture decisions (multi-cluster Kubernetes with secure routing; Kafka + Gobblin over MQTT) and runs execution with Agile roadmaps tightly aligned to GTM and senior leadership.”

Senior AI Engineer specializing in LLM applications and full-stack systems

San Francisco, CA8y exp

“Built and owned a production LLM/RAG customer support assistant end-to-end, from prototype through deployment, monitoring, and iteration. Their work automated roughly 40% of common support queries and cut response times by about 30%, while also creating reusable Python inference services that improved consistency and team velocity.”

YAKKALI PAVAN

Mid-level Machine Learning & Generative AI Engineer specializing in NLP, CV, and RAG systems

USA6y exp

“Built and deployed a production LLM-powered RAG document intelligence system used by non-technical enterprise stakeholders, cutting document search time by 40%+ while improving answer consistency. Demonstrates strong MLOps/data workflow orchestration (Airflow, AWS Step Functions, managed schedulers across GCP/Azure) and a metrics-driven approach to reliability, evaluation, and cost/latency optimization with guardrails and observability.”

“Amazon Prime Video backend engineer who built and operated high-traffic Python/FastAPI services and AWS-native data/batch systems. Demonstrates strong production reliability and incident ownership (CloudWatch/X-Ray), plus measurable performance wins (8s to <200ms query latency, ~40% CPU reduction) and cost-focused architectures (Lambda + ECS/Fargate with Fargate Spot).”

ALEXANDER SHEYNER

Screened

Executive IT & Enterprise Architecture leader specializing in portfolio transformation, data/AI, and M&A

Boston, MA35y exp

“Fractional CTO supporting early-stage teams in the UAE and Ukraine to build platforms using an "Agentic OS" approach—one focused on reducing friction across patient/provider/payor engagement and another on enforcing transparency for international rebuilding investments to reduce fraud. Also exploring an alternative-energy feedstock plantation opportunity in Armenia with multi-industry downstream revenue potential; has created project-specific investor pitch decks and is actively engaging potential investors.”
