Vetted Distributed Tracing Professionals

“ML/AI engineer with strong production ownership across predictive ML and Generative AI systems. They’ve delivered measurable business impact through real-time churn/drop-off prediction, RAG-based document QA, and scalable LLM optimization, with a consistent focus on reliability, safety, latency, and developer productivity.”

“Software engineer who recently shipped an authentication and role-based access feature for a web app, using AI selectively for boilerplate, debugging, and test suggestions while retaining ownership of architecture, security, testing, and final review. Stands out for a disciplined, security-first approach to AI-assisted development and a pragmatic preference for lightweight API-driven solutions over unnecessary framework complexity.”

“Full-stack engineer with experience spanning AI-powered product features and healthcare fraud detection systems. Has built end-to-end LLM-enabled applications, customer-facing recommendation systems at scale, and operational platforms that improved real-time investigations and flagged over 1,200 high-risk cases quarterly.”

“Software engineer/product owner experience at UnitedHealth Group owning a high-volume claims eligibility console end-to-end (React/TypeScript + Spring Boot microservices) processing 1M+ transactions/day. Strong in event-driven architecture (Kafka/RabbitMQ), HIPAA-aligned security (OAuth/JWT/RBAC), and building internal observability tools that improve incident triage and production reliability.”

“Full-stack engineer with financial services experience (Lincoln Financial) who owned a customer-facing financial portal end-to-end using TypeScript/React and Node/Express. Has hands-on microservices and RabbitMQ event-driven workflows, addressing scale issues like retries/duplicates with idempotency and traceable logging, and built an internal real-time ops/support dashboard to improve monitoring and incident response.”

“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.”

“AppSec-focused engineer from Kaiser Permanente who advises on authentication/API security, performs lightweight threat modeling, and integrates SAST + dependency scanning into CI/CD while actively reducing false positives to improve release speed. Demonstrated strong troubleshooting using logs/traces/metrics (e.g., diagnosing auth failures caused by clock skew) and communicates security tradeoffs differently for engineering vs product stakeholders.”

“Infrastructure/operations engineer with hands-on production IBM Power/AIX (AIX 7.x, VIOS, HMC) and PowerHA/HACMP clustering experience, including DLPAR changes, failover testing, and incident recovery. Also delivers modern cloud DevOps work—GitHub Actions CI/CD for Docker-to-Kubernetes on AWS and Terraform-based provisioning of core AWS infrastructure (VPC/EKS/RDS/IAM) with controlled rollouts and drift checks.”

“Backend/AI engineer who has built production Spring Boot APIs on AWS (JWT auth, Redis/MySQL) and solved a real-world silent data integrity issue by implementing idempotency keys plus DB constraints/transactions. Also shipped an LLM-based document Q&A feature using a RAG pipeline with evaluation + human review, and designed multi-step agent workflows with verification, retries, and escalation guardrails.”

“Full-stack product engineer who has shipped polished customer-facing experiences across iOS (SwiftUI), web (Next.js/React/TypeScript), and Python backends. Built systems ranging from an escalating smart-reminder engine to a sub-200ms search UI over 6M+ court records, and owned AWS production operations including resolving a real DB-connection-exhaustion incident with scaling and architectural hardening.”

Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in distributed systems and cloud microservices

Tempe, Arizona11y exp

“Product-minded full-stack engineer from CouponDunia who owned end-to-end notification and recommendation services at million-user scale. Built internal admin/analytics and operations dashboards in React/TypeScript with typed contracts and scalable Node.js REST APIs, and has deep microservices experience with Kafka/RabbitMQ (idempotency, retries/DLQs, partitioning, consumer tuning, and observability).”

Mid-level Solutions Architect/Engineer specializing in AI and data integrations

Mountain View, CA5y exp

“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.”

Mid-level Full-Stack Java Developer specializing in cloud-native FinTech and Healthcare platforms

New York, NY5y exp

“Backend engineer with production experience building and scaling a Java/Spring Boot payment processing API on AWS (PostgreSQL/Redis) handling a few thousand RPS, including deep performance debugging (connection exhaustion) and observability (CloudWatch, Actuator, Zipkin). Also shipped application-layer AI features (OpenAI email summarizer with feedback loop, ~40% faster agent response times) and designed reliable multi-step workflow orchestration with retries and manual escalation, plus strong SQL tuning and Python engineering practices.”

“Data and backend-focused engineer with hands-on experience spanning GenAI applications, production telemetry systems, and large-scale ETL pipelines. They combine modern AI stack work (React, FastAPI, LangChain, ChromaDB) with measurable production impact, including 90% lower DB insertion latency, 50% higher ETL throughput, and 99.9% data quality in distributed environments.”

“Infrastructure/Platform engineer with deep production ownership of large IBM Power/AIX estates (70 LPARs, dual VIOS, HMC across two data centers), including live DLPAR tuning and PowerHA clustering for Oracle/WebSphere. Also brings modern DevOps/IaC experience—built GitHub Actions pipelines deploying to Kubernetes with OIDC/Vault secrets and implemented Terraform to provision AWS EKS/VPC/IAM/ALB/RDS with drift detection and controlled rollouts.”
