“Full stack developer with strong implementation ownership across cloud deployments, integrations, and AI-powered support automation. They have put LLM/RAG workflows into production with measurable impact—cutting first response time by nearly 40%—and show unusual depth in debugging non-deterministic AI incidents, improving observability, and turning messy document inputs into reliable API-driven pipelines.”

“Full-stack engineer with 5+ years of experience who built real-time data visualization and analytics systems at Uber, spanning React/TypeScript frontends, Node/GraphQL services, Kafka pipelines, and PostgreSQL. Particularly compelling for teams needing a hands-on builder who can turn ambiguous customer needs into scalable products, and who has also applied RAG with LangChain/OpenAI over 1.8M support files to surface actionable insights.”

“LLM/agentic workflow practitioner (Continuum AI) who productionized an LLM system for manufacturing RMA intake and warranty claims by moving from a brittle prompt to a modular pipeline with RAG, function-calling extraction, deterministic validation, and strong observability. Also diagnosed and fixed an agentic ticket-triage misrouting issue by tracing failures to retrieval timeouts, adding guardrails/fallbacks, and implementing retries plus continuous evaluation—bringing misroutes near zero while creating a repeatable debugging playbook.”

“Built a production LLM-powered analyst assistant at Discern Security to speed up SOC investigations using a RAG pipeline over security vendor documentation (Python PDF ingestion, vector search). Demonstrates deep, security-critical LLM engineering: structure-aware chunking with custom table parsing, grounded/cited responses, prompt-injection defenses, and post-generation validation, validated via golden datasets and adversarial testing; tool is used daily by analysts.”

“Worked on payments and wallet transactions, with an emphasis on observability and root-cause analysis. Delivered end-to-end A/B testing optimization and implemented Jenkins-based CI/CD automation that reduced manual implementation to 35% and cut deployments to ~2 minutes, with attention to operational considerations like on-call/call rotations.”

“At Citi, helped lead the productionization of an internal LLM-driven automation workflow into a production-ready developer platform, focusing on determinism/reproducibility, security, and cost controls. Implemented prompt versioning/registry, JSON schema validation, sanitization, and deep telemetry (including manual edit-distance) plus human-in-the-loop review and phased rollout—driving major SDLC efficiency gains (e.g., test script creation cut from ~1 week to ~1 day).”

Los Angeles, CA3y exp

“Robotics/ML engineer who implemented TD3 and PPO in PyTorch to solve the challenging OpenAI Gymnasium humanoid-v5 MuJoCo task, including custom networks, rollout logic, and training scripts. Also has hands-on robotics coursework experience with ROS-based RRT motion planning on a real robotic arm, plus practical CI/CD and containerization experience (Docker, Jenkins, GitHub Actions). Currently exploring world models (VAE + sequence generator) using Euro Truck Simulator data.”

Mid-level Software Engineer specializing in backend systems and cloud-native FinTech

Seattle, WA5y exp

“Amazon engineer with 5+ years of experience who built an AI-assisted log investigation and triage workflow that cut debugging time by about 30% during on-call incidents. Combines observability tooling like CloudWatch and Splunk with Python, prompt engineering, and RAG-based diagnostics, and has practical experience orchestrating agentic AI workflows with a strong human-in-the-loop reliability focus.”

“Backend engineer who built and evolved an internal multi-agent AI research platform (Electron + FastAPI) integrating OpenAI, focused on fast, reproducible experimentation with strong observability and run metadata for debugging. Has led incremental backend refactors with feature flags and parallel validation, and brings production-grade access control expertise from ServiceNow (table/field ACLs and row-level-style enforcement).”

“Backend-leaning full-stack engineer with e-commerce and analytics experience who modernized synchronous order workflows into a Kafka-based event-driven architecture (Java/Spring Boot) to reduce checkout latency and peak-traffic failures. Has built production FastAPI services with JWT/RBAC and strong testing/observability, delivered React+TypeScript reporting dashboards, and handled AWS scaling incidents end-to-end (RDS read latency mitigated with read replicas and query tuning).”

“AppSec-focused customer advisor with hands-on experience integrating SAST/DAST/SCA into production CI/CD (Azure DevOps) and designing secure agent/scanning deployments in AWS (least-privilege IAM, private subnets, VPC endpoints). Demonstrates strong incident troubleshooting using logs/metrics/traces to diagnose load-related failures (timeouts/retry storms) and drive durable fixes, while tailoring risk/tradeoff communication across engineering, security, and leadership stakeholders.”

“Customer-facing technical support/solutions professional with experience at Stripe and Intuit helping developers take payment API and webhook integrations from testing to production.
