Vetted Data Visualization Professionals

“Full-stack engineer from Vagaro who owned an end-to-end rebuild of a sluggish WordPress sales site into a Next.js 15 app hosted on Azure, adding Hygraph headless CMS, SSR, i18n, and a reusable component library. Instrumented Amplitude + A/B testing/heatmaps and reports a 10% sales lift post-launch; also has AWS ops experience (S3/IAM/CloudWatch) and has built ingestion pipelines including LLM-powered unstructured data processing with dead-letter handling.”

“DevOps/GCP-focused engineer with experience helping move complex/LLM-style prototypes toward production by clarifying requirements, hardening architecture, and driving OS-level test remediation to full pass rates. Debugs LLM/agentic workflow issues like distributed systems using GCP observability (Cloud Logging/Monitoring, GKE metrics) and implements alerting policies for proactive communication. Has delivered internal DevOps training from basics through end-to-end GCP infrastructure and deployment, improving engagement with real-world examples and analogies.”

“Product/UX designer with experience building an end-to-end AI campaign/session platform that converted an engineer-led, code-heavy workflow into a self-serve marketer product using a target/act/schedule interaction model, progressive disclosure, and real-time previews. Also redesigned monitoring for Informatica’s enterprise data platform after field research with data engineers, shifting the UI toward lifecycle views and failure-state observability.”

“Built and deployed an LLM-powered mental health therapy assistant at AppHealth that segments users by stress level and delivers personalized, non-medical guidance. Implemented healthcare-focused safety guardrails (secondary LLM output filtering) and a multi-agent router workflow validated via statistical tests and therapist review, then scaled training/inference on AWS (EC2/Lambda/DynamoDB) with Kubernetes.”

“Cloud/ML engineer with production deployment experience on Azure (Dockerized models, managed APIs, data pipelines) who has repeatedly stabilized unreliable systems—e.g., taking an API-driven analytics pipeline from ~60% to 98% reliability and an Azure ML service from ~80% to 97% by addressing rate limits, container memory, and gateway timeouts. Also built an explainable contract-risk model for entertainment bookings (Transformers + SHAP) and integrated it into a legacy booking system via a Flask REST API, plus prior IoT work at Nissan processing CAN bus sensor streams for diagnostics/anomaly insights.”

“Internship project at Builder Market: built an end-to-end production multimodal LLM application that estimates renovation/replacement costs from appliance photos (CLIP embeddings) or text descriptions, combining fine-tuning with agentic RAG. Focused heavily on real-world performance constraints—latency and cost—using parallel agent workflows, model routing to smaller/open-source models, re-ranking, and retrieval chunking, and collaborated closely with CEO/co-founders to deliver the solution.”

“AI/LLM engineer who built a production RAG-based Text2SQL engine using Qdrant, including creating the underlying business/DB documentation, generating a test dataset, and designing detailed SQL-quality metrics for validation. Also partnered with non-technical stakeholders on a speech recognition project to prioritize medical terminology, improving accuracy through targeted corpora, lookup-table correction, and fine-tuning with a modified loss function.”

“Procurement/sourcing professional with end-to-end ownership of vendor selection and cost control, leveraging SAP spend analysis, RFIs/RFQs, and structured supplier capability/quality assessments (ISO, PPM, inspections). Notably streamlined an ordering/invoicing process to reduce blocked invoices and push payments through EDI, and uses Excel/Power BI plus workflow tools (123forms) to manage milestones, approvals, and OTD.”

“Built and deployed a production RAG system for financial/compliance teams using GPT-4, Claude, and local models to retrieve and summarize thousands of internal documents with strong security controls (role-based retrieval, PII masking). Drove significant operational gains (30+ hours/week saved, ~35% productivity lift, ~45% faster responses) and orchestrated end-to-end ingestion/embedding/index refresh pipelines with Airflow, S3, and SageMaker while partnering closely with compliance stakeholders on auditability and traceability.”

“Front-end-focused developer at a startup who also handles back-end integration, delivering customer-facing analytics dashboards from Figma designs while collaborating tightly with UX/product and running customer review cycles. Recently helped manage a risky production user-migration issue by stopping deployment, restoring deleted records from backups, and rebuilding the migration process with a safer test environment and validation.”

“NLP/ML engineer with hands-on healthcare and support-ticket text experience, building clinical-note structuring and semantic linking systems using spaCy, BERT clinical embeddings, and FAISS. Emphasizes production-grade delivery (Airflow/Databricks, PySpark, Docker, AWS/FastAPI/Lambda) and rigorous validation via clinician-labeled datasets, retrieval metrics, and user feedback.”

Los Angeles, CA4y exp

“Built and deployed a production LLM-powered phone assistant for a healthcare clinic, combining streaming STT/TTS with RAG over approved clinic documents and strict safety guardrails to prevent unverified medical advice, plus seamless human handoff. Also has hands-on Apache Airflow experience building robust daily ML/data pipelines with data validation, retries/timeouts, monitoring, and metric-gated model deployment, and iterates closely with clinic staff using real call reviews.”

Chicago, USA5y exp

“AI/ML engineer who led production deployment of a multimodal (text/video/image) RAG system on GCP using Gemini 2.5 + Vertex AI Vector Search, scaling to 10M+ documents with sub-second latency and +40% retrieval accuracy. Strong MLOps/orchestration background (Kubernetes, CI/CD, Airflow, MLflow) with proven impact on reliability (75% fewer incidents) and deployment speed (92% faster), plus experience delivering explainable ML (XGBoost + SHAP + Tableau) to non-technical retail stakeholders.”

Senior DevOps/Solutions Engineer specializing in CI/CD, cloud platforms, and API integrations

San Francisco, California11y exp

“Solutions Architect with 5+ years leading pre- and post-sales engagements, focused on taking complex tooling from test/prototype to secure production through a structured discovery-to-deployment approach. Experienced in LLM workflow troubleshooting using tools like Langfuse/Gopher and in developer enablement via concise, hands-on workshops (e.g., Jenkins on Kubernetes at scale). Has navigated internal and external blockers to drive adoption and keep enterprise deals moving (including a Jenkins sale to Love's).”

Senior Gameplay Engineer specializing in VR and cross-platform gameplay systems

14y exp

“Unreal Engine (C++/Blueprint) gameplay systems engineer who shipped major VR social-sports features in Orion Drift, including a wieldable items system that became the game’s primary IAP revenue driver and supported 75-player lobbies via careful replication/performance tradeoffs. Also built the station/server browsing system to steer players into lively lobbies and implemented backend-to-frontend tech tree infrastructure using Unreal DataTables, plus tuned standout mechanics like rideable rockets and Driftball projectile/ball behavior through frequent playtests.”
