Mid-Level Software Engineer specializing in cloud data platforms and FinTech payments

Atlanta, GA4y exp

“Backend engineer focused on financial systems, having evolved payments and reconciliation platforms using Python/FastAPI and PostgreSQL with an emphasis on idempotency, validation, and consistency. Has led monolith-to-services migrations using feature flags and shadow traffic, and implements defense-in-depth security (OAuth2/JWT plus DB-level row security) for multi-tenant environments.”

“Startup builder (MagicSeven) who designed and implemented a browser-based, agentic video editor end-to-end, including an AWS event-driven multimodal LLM “indexing” pipeline and an orchestration LLM agent for searching and manipulating footage. Demonstrates deep video file/codec knowledge plus practical production hardening of LLM workflows (format validation, plan/execute, S3-based state for debuggability).”

“Robotics-focused engineer from a senior capstone who built the backend motion-control software for a semi-autonomous line-following vehicle split across two ESP32s. Experienced in ROS 2 (DDS, lifecycle nodes, QoS) and in bridging microcontroller telemetry to a laptop ROS 2 stack over UART with custom structured protocols, using Gazebo simulation to tune PID and validate behavior before deploying to hardware.”

“Customer-support/engineering background spanning Informatica PowerCenter ETL and IBM demos/workshops, with hands-on experience hardening data workflows for production (error tables/reject links, validation, restart strategies, alerting, performance tuning). Also demonstrates a clear, systems-level approach to diagnosing LLM/agentic workflow issues (prompt/RAG/tooling/memory) using instrumentation and iterative fixes, and has partnered with sales on POCs by defining success metrics and mapping solutions to customer architectures.”

Mid-level Full-Stack Developer specializing in Node.js/React and cloud DevOps

Bengaluru, India4y exp

“Software engineer with startup and capstone experience who improved an ~8-hour database refresh workflow by moving API calls to asynchronous execution and then addressing API rate limits via throttling. Emphasizes performance profiling/logging, strong developer onboarding documentation practices, and disciplined Agile/Jira bug triage and expectation-setting with stakeholders.”

Mid-Level Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in cloud, distributed systems, and LLM apps

Champaign, IL3y exp

“Built and owned a hackathon project (Gritto) with a Python/FastAPI backend that routes user text through a sequence of Gemini agents to produce structured JSON outputs. Has hands-on production deployment experience using Docker/Docker Compose, GitHub Actions CI/CD, AWS App Runner, MongoDB, and secrets management (Doppler + migration to AWS Secrets Manager), plus implemented a chat-like experience via multiple HTTP requests when SSE wasn’t viable.”

Mid-level Machine Learning Engineer specializing in computer vision and generative AI

Hoboken, NJ7y exp

“Built and deployed an LLM/RAG system that uses differential privacy and distributional similarity checks to transform private data into a non-sensitive knowledge base while preserving utility. Also has experience demonstrating adversarial ML concepts (FGSM) to non-technical audiences by focusing on observable model behavior rather than implementation details.”

Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in cloud-native distributed systems

Charlotte, NC4y exp

“Full-stack engineer with Bank of America experience building and owning a customer portfolio dashboard end-to-end, from requirements through launch and ongoing iteration. They combine React/Spring Boot/PostgreSQL implementation with strong performance tuning, real-time data handling, and UX improvements, and cite adoption by roughly 12,000 active internal users.”

“Wayfair ML/AI engineer who has shipped and operated production LLM systems for both internal analytics and customer-facing assistants. Stands out for combining strong RAG/retrieval engineering with production-grade platform work—improving trust, reducing latency by ~30%, and cutting ad hoc reporting demand by ~50%.”

Intern Full-Stack Engineer specializing in web applications and AI

New York, NY2y exp

“Engineer with hands-on experience both using AI coding agents in production and building AI systems, including chatbot development and BERT fine-tuning at Atos. At Groupr, they applied strong systems judgment to live operational workflows, validating concurrency decisions manually for an admin portal supporting 500+ orders per day.”

“Backend/platform engineer who has built and scaled production Java/Spring Boot + Kafka services on AWS/Kubernetes (1M+ msgs/day) and led reliability/performance fixes that restored SLAs (25–30% latency improvement; 99.9% uptime). Also shipped an AI customer-support chatbot end-to-end using retrieval + guardrails and rigorous evaluation/observability, improving resolution time 40% and satisfaction 25%, with a strong plan/execute/verify approach to agentic workflow reliability.”

“Master’s CS candidate with backend internship experience modernizing live operational workflows at NatWest/NetWess, focusing on reliability improvements, safer CI/CD deployments, and incremental refactors using feature flags and rollback paths. Built FastAPI-based APIs with strong security patterns (JWT + 2FA/TOTP, centralized authorization, RLS) and demonstrated attention to edge cases like idempotency and data consistency in a Netflix-clone project.”

“Worked at AMD on Vivado tool releases, focusing on adding and integrating new IP/SoC functionality into the Vivado flow and validating expected behavior through testing. Comfortable engaging with customers and open to travel for hands-on customer-facing work.”
